This simulation demonstrates how velocity vectors can be treated as independent variables in kinematic systems. Learners manipulate a ball on a slope with spring interactions, observing how velocity components change independently while exploring vector decomposition and motion dynamics across different configurations.
Learning objectives: Understand velocity as a vector quantity with independent x and y components | Analyse how velocity vectors behave in different physical scenarios | Apply vector principles to predict and explain motion in complex systems
