Description
Newton-II is a program for solving mechanical equations for movements numerically. The equations can be parameterized for interactive investi-gations of the movements and the according solutions are displayed immediately in a diagram.
The differential equations (DEQs) are programmed to calculate the time dependence of the velocitiy v(t) of a point of mass from the given acceleration a. Then the location s(t) is calculated from v(t).
You can enter the acceleration a directly or with any desired mathematical term (i.e. a = F/m from Newton's law).For solving the DEQs several solution methods up to a very sturdy adaptive Runge-Kutta-Method of 4th order can be used. The output of the results are given graphically in a diagram and as a table for further utilisation.
