YP Slider Crank 1.1 Description

YP Slider Crank simulates the motion of a piston activated by a slider crank mechanism. The crank is in uniform rotational motion (constant angular velocity), causing the piston to move with a variable acceleration. Relative lengths of the crank arm and the connecting rod may be changed easily. During the simulation, it is possible to display the following vectors: acceleration, velocity and position, and the following graphs: acceleration, velocity and position versus time.

YP Geneva Mechanism A Geneva mechanism is used to provide an intermittant rotational motion of the driven part while the driver wheel rotates continuously. This program simulates a Geneva mechanism with 4 or 6 slots. It displays graphs describing the angular position and the angular velocity of both parts of the mechanism, and it can also draw the tangential velocity of both parts.

YP Circular YP Circular simulates an object in uniform circular motion and/or an object in simple harmonic motion. Both motions (circular and harmonic) may be animated simultaneously to show that the uniform circular motion is a combination of two simple harmonic motions. Physics teachers use YP Circular to show that the velocity is tangent to the circle and that the centripetal acceleration is directed toward the center of the circle, in a uniform...
