Launch an object and study its trajectory. Many options are available for representing its motion (graphs, strobes, motion vectors).			Attach a thruster to the object and study its motion under an impulsive force (controlled from the keyboard)
The Force and Motion Elements Palette allows you to show/hide the background coordinate system, draw graphs of various quantities, place objects (and change its mass and what it looks like), apply constant or impulsive forces, and attach initial velocities and accelerations (if no additional forces are applied). There are also elements to launch objects, explore explosions between two objects, and apply thrusts to objects. You can also attach objects to springs and constrain motion to a frictional surface. Finally, a force diagram window option can display the individual forces and net force acting on the object. Many options are also available through a background property window (below right).
A graphics palette is also available, making it easy for students to represent their predictions.
