Introduction

Physion is a web application which allows you to design and simulate physics experiments. You can think of it as a "CAD-like" application combined with a 2D physics simulator where the objects you design can be instantly simulated. Physion provides a rich set of tools with which you can design physics experiments for educational or fun purposes.

Educational Simulations​

Teachers can use Physion to construct scenes that demonstrate a wide range of physics concepts. Some of these include the following:

  • Newton's Law
  • Hooke's Law
  • Dynamics / Kinematics
  • Energy Conservation
  • Oscillations

Students can then better understand these concepts with the aid of visualization and interactivity.

Simulations For Fun​

Apart from its educational aspect, Physion can also be used to create a wide variety of scenes just for fun.

  • Mechanical Contraptions
  • Rube Goldberg Machines
  • Marble Races

Continuous Improvement​

Physion is constantly improving and new features are added frequently. In case you have any ideas, suggestions and/or feature requests please don't hesitate to let us know
