Available components are batteries, bulbs, swithches, and connecting wire. Component values can be varied by the user. Meters to measure voltage and current are available.. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=231924 A Java program that performs quantitative analysis of motion.  Data is collected using frame-by-frame analysis of video clips (Quicktime movies in this case).  Resulting data is displayed both graphically and in table form. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=231933 A small collection of videos showing objects in motion.  Both Quicktime movies and Flash Vid-Dat files are provided.  Suitable for analysis by video analysis programs. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=85116 An interactive simulation designed to help students understand fourier series. Includes a discrete-only module and a module that illustrates the transition from discrete to continuous transforms. A wave game module in which students try to match a given waveform is also included. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=274755 Some interactive tutorials on light and optics. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=77102 This is an authoring system (written in Java) that allows users to create their own simulations without writing Java code. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=311875 A tutorial on an experiment involving interference of electrons and heavy ions. There are also a number of MS-DOS programs that simulate classic quantum experiments. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84969 A site for information about planets orbiting other stars. Includes a tutorials and a catalog of the currently known examples. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=313430 Experiments in Modern Physics conducted remotely via the Web. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=77892 This is a Shockwave applet that simulates a density and buoyancy experiment. Students can measure the mass and volume of various objects and determine whether or not they float or sink in a liquid. The density of the liquid can also be varied.
