About this Simulation

This interactive simulation allows learners to investigate how forces applied to a block perform work and transfer energy. By adjusting applied forces (Fx and Fy) and observing the block's motion and acceleration, students explore the relationship between work, force, and kinetic energy in real-time.

Learning objectives: Understand the definition of work and how it relates to force and displacement | Apply the work-energy principle to predict changes in kinetic energy | Analyse the effects of force magnitude and direction on the work performed on an object
