YP Image

YP Image 1.0.1

YP Image is designed to assist teachers and students when they study imageformation by mirrors and thin lenses (geometrical optics). It computes thelocation and magnification of the image formed by a spherical mirror or athin lens, and draws a ray...

YP Reflection is designed to assist teachers and students when they study the laws of reflection in geometrical optics. The program provides the user with a lasersource that can be moved and rotated, and with a large quantity of mirrors that can be moved...

YP Atwood

YP Atwood 1.0

YP Atwood simulates a pulley (simple or double) driven by one or two suspended masses. Thisprogram is designed to study the kinematics and the dynamics of rotational motion with constantangular acceleration, and linear motion with constant acceleration....

With YP Vernier, it is easy to learn how to use a vernier to measure length with great precision. YP Vernier simulates a vernier caliper on the screen. Using a scroll bar, the user moves the movable jaw, and the corresponding numerical value is...
