JAVA Applets:

I created these Java applets in the course of an independent study under the tutelage of Dr. Wolfgang Christian and during a summer work project in July of 1999. They are intended to supplement physics education at an undergraduate level by providing visual demonstrations of problems and concepts which may be difficult to grasp. Each applet is free for educational use only and may be downloaded at http://webphysics.davidson.edu under the "Physlets" subtitle. Through the power of Java and JavaScript technology, each applet is capable of demonstrating a multitude of physical scenarios.
