This applet is falling with air resistance<br />Created by prof Hwang Modified by Ahmed<br />Original project [url=http://www.phy.ntnu.edu.tw/ntnujava/index.php?topic=1536.0]requesting for simulations for object falling with air resistance/board:26-100-[/url]<br /><br />What will happen if there are many objects with the same density but different size, all fall from the same height.<br />The terminal velocity <img class='tex' src="/demolab/smf/teximages/9/6/9/96900adfb0b2a94e6e1698dabf3f6652.png" alt="v=\sqrt{mg/b}=\sqrt{\rho Vg/b}" />, so the terminal velocity is proportiobal to <img class='tex' src="/demolab/smf/teximages/2/2/4/2240d2530315d18f7ee9a4ffd01304d5.png" alt="\sqrt{V}" /> where <img class='tex' src="/demolab/smf/teximages/5/2/0/5206560a306a2e085a437fd258eb57ce.png" alt="V" /> is the volume of the object.<br /><br />The following simulation try to illustrate the size effect on terminal velocity.<br />The ratio of the mass for the object is 1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9<br />Because it is a 2D simulation, the radius is proportional to <img class='tex' src="/demolab/smf/teximages/6/6/7/6672e95eabb944b2e7f9127bfaccdce5.png" alt="\sqrt{m}" />.<br /><br />You can try it with different gravity g , or drag constant (Drag force = bv2)<p><applet code='users.br.ahmed.basic_terminalvelocitysets_pkg.basic_terminalvelocitysetsApplet.class' codebase='ejsuser/37048/' archive='ejs_basic_terminalvelocitysets.jar' name='basic_terminalvelocitysets6408' id='basic_terminalvelocitysets6408' width='931' height='630' mayscript=true><param name='draggable' value='true'></applet></p>/htdocs/ntnujava/ejsuser/37048/users/br/ahmed/basic_terminalvelocitysets_pkg/basic_terminalvelocitysets.properties<a href='htmltag.php?code=users.br.ahmed.basic_terminalvelocitysets_pkg.basic_terminalvelocitysetsApplet.class&name=basic_terminalvelocitysets&muid=37048' target='_blank'>Full screen applet</a> or <font color="#FF0000">Problem viewing java?</font><a href="http://www.java.com/en/download/help/jcp_security.xml" target="trusted">Add http://www.phy.ntnu.edu.tw/ to exception site list</a><br><b>Press the Alt key and the left mouse button to drag the applet off the browser and onto the desktop.</b> This work is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/tw/deed.en">Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 Taiwan License</a><br><a href='ntnujavazip.php?ejsuserjar=6408' title='ejs_basic_terminalvelocitysets.jar' target='userjar'>Download EJS jar file</a>(1485.9kB):double click downloaded file to run it.
