About this Simulation

This simulation models a bungee jumper undergoing simple harmonic motion after jumping from a platform. Learners can observe and analyse real-time position and acceleration graphs, exploring how amplitude, period, and phase relationships emerge during oscillatory motion. The interactive environment reveals the mathematical and physical principles governing periodic systems.

Learning objectives: Understand the relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration in simple harmonic motion | Interpret and analyse displacement-time and acceleration-time graphs for oscillating systems | Apply SHM concepts to real-world scenarios like bungee jumping
