MATHS WITH MATT • A-LEVEL PHYSICS
Interactive Physics Simulations
Explore the physics rather than just memorising it. Change the variables, watch what happens and connect the animation directly to the equations you need for A-Level Physics.
Standing Waves & Reflection
See how an incident wave and its reflection superpose to form nodes and antinodes. Compare fixed and free boundaries and change the wave conditions yourself.
Open simulation →Wave Motion Simulation
Compare transverse, longitudinal and water waves. Follow particle motion, compressions and rarefactions, and see why water waves are mixed transverse–longitudinal waves.
Open simulation →Projectile Motion
Adjust launch speed and angle and connect horizontal and vertical motion to the SUVAT equations.
Electric Fields
Explore field strength, force and potential around point charges with visual field lines and vectors.
Simple Harmonic Motion
Link displacement, velocity and acceleration while changing amplitude, period and phase.
Built for revision, not distraction
Each simulation is designed around the ideas and equations students meet in AQA, Edexcel and OCR A-Level Physics. They are free to use and work directly in your browser.
