About this Simulation

This interactive simulation models a bungee jumper undergoing simple harmonic motion. Learners observe real-time position, velocity, and acceleration as the jumper oscillates, with linked graphs showing how these quantities vary over time. Adjust initial conditions and view the motion from multiple perspectives to deepen understanding of oscillatory systems.

Learning objectives: Understand the relationship between displacement, velocity, and acceleration in SHM | Interpret position-velocity-acceleration graphs during oscillatory motion | Identify period, amplitude, and phase relationships in real-world oscillating systems
