Shows the dynamics of a mass-spring system sliding on an inclined plane Block and Spring on an Inclined Plane is a free program that shows the dynamics of a mass-spring system sliding on an inclined plane with static and kinetic friction. Block and Spring on an Inclined Plane displays the numerical solution to equation of motion and shows how the forces change as the mass slides. Users can set the coefficients of friction and the spring constant. The model plots the position, velocity, and net force on the mass as a function of time as the system evolves and in order to show the asymmetry caused by the change in direction of the frictional force when sliding up and down the incline and the importance of friction in establishing equilibrium. Requirements: · Java 1.5 or later
