This java applet gives a visual representation of the addition of vectors. The user can choose to sum from two to five arbitrary vectors. The applet adds the vectors visually, moving each to the sum of the previous vectors.
This part of a large collection of physics applets available in a wide range of languages. Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.4.1 of Java.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Kinematics: The Physics of Motion
Unit Title: Vectors This Java applet gives a visual representation of the addition of vectors. Students can choose to add 2-5 arbitrary vectors. The applet adds the vectors visually, moving each to the sum of the previous vectors. Link to Unit:
