The Physics Classroom: Kinematics: Graph That Motion Interactive
Apply the principles of kinematic graphing to match the motion of eleven objects with their corresponding graphical descriptions. Students must understand how the shape of position-time and velocity-time graphs relate to a motion.

The Physics Classroom: Kinematics: Graphs and Ramps Interactive
Students construct a ramp along which a ball rolls in order to match the given graph. As the ball rolls along the ramp, the motion is plotted in real time, allowing the learner to make adjustments to the ramp in order to successfully...
