About this Simulation

This simulation models gravitational acceleration and potential energy around massive objects. Students can adjust mass and distance parameters to observe how gravitational fields change, explore the inverse-square relationship, and understand the connection between gravitational force and potential energy through interactive visualisation and real-time feedback.

Learning objectives: Understand how mass and distance affect gravitational acceleration | Visualise gravitational field strength and potential energy distributions | Apply mathematical relationships between gravity, mass, and distance in practical scenarios
