Gravity Simulation Software

Gravity Simulation Software : for Windows
Gravity is a program to simulate the path of move for bodies (i.e. objects with mass) altered by the gravity drive between each other, i.e. a gravity simulator.By using this program, gravitational attraction may be better learned. By modeling multiple bodies, you may observe the perturbance of planets interfering with each other, ejecting a body from the system or when a planet capturing a body that arrives from the outside and making it a satellite of its own.As a fundamental physical phenomenon, gravity is on curriculum at elementary and secondary schools and at vocational higher schools, thus it is an aid for both pupils and teachers, when they can see orbital paths in addition to imaging them. Sitting before the computer, a process that lasts effectively for years may take place in a few seconds, the Kepler's and Newton's law are understood in a shorter time.

QCA Scheme of Work: Science KS3 Unit 9J
http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/schemes2/secondary_science/sci09j/
KS3 (England) Science Unit 9J: Gravity and space
This unit is part of the scheme of work the shows how the science programme of study (PoS) for key stage 3 can be managed more easily.
The scheme is not statutory; you can use as much or as little as you wish. You could use the whole scheme or individual units. The sections on ?sing this scheme?and ?equencing the units?can help you to decide how you want to use the scheme.
You may also wish to combine these units with units from another subject. The ?ombining units?section gives information on exploiting powerful links between subjects.
1. What is gravity?
2. How does gravity change?
5. How have our ideas about the solar system changed?
6. What keeps the planets and satellites in orbit
