Good way of illustrating angular and linear velocity.
Technical Remarks:
Controls tend to leap about a bit, which becomes inconvenient at times.
John Walkup (Staff)
Although some of the controls are a little jerky, this applet does a good job of
demonstrating the relationship between linear and angular speed. Trying to set
the coefficient of friction equal to 0 causes some problems, however. And it
would be nice to have the radius user-defined.
