Experiment with one or two #pendulums, see how the length, weight, gravity, or angle affect the #period.
Learners will also observe the system's energy in real-time and discover the conservation of mechanical energy. https://t.co/jPRYQ93KSh #PeriodicMotion #iTeachPhysics

Models aren't just 3D renderings of cells or planets—they are the mental maps in a student's head.
Vivian (Peru ) shows how @PhETsims help teachers reveal that "hidden" thinking and build stronger mental models. Read more: https://t.co/FkMdmJLySJ #iteachphysics #physics
