Yp Mouvement Rectiligne

YP Mouvement Rectiligne is the french version of YP Rectilinear Motion. New MacOS software to learn kinematics YP Rectilinear Motion 1.0 is targeted toward physics teachers and physics students. It allows the user to plot a graph of velocity as a function of time with simple mouse clicks. The program uses this graph to build a graph of position vs time, and a graph of acceleration vs time, which are displayed in separate windows. The motion described by these 3 plots can be simulated. During the simulation, 3 vectors can be displayed in the animation window (positon, velocity and acceleration), and the tangent line can be drawn in the position and velocity graphs. System Requirements: YP Rectilinear Motion runs on any Macintosh computer with MAC OS 7, 8 or 9. It needs about 300 Kb on your hard disk and 3 Mb of RAM. Keywords: Physics teaching, sciences, motion, kinematics, graphs, slope, tangent, position, velocity, speed, acceleration, vector, simulation, animation.
