Newton’s cradle: conservation of momentum
One ball strikes a row and exactly one ball swings out from the other end. An interactive Newton’s cradle — a lesson on momentum and energy.

Physics experiments
Interactive experiments for kids, students and teachers. Run each one right on the page, then open a copy in the Tymora editor and change mass, friction, elasticity or gravity. Every experiment comes with discussion questions and a version to try at home.

Chain reaction: falling dominoes
A ball pushes the first domino and a wave of falling runs through the whole row. An energy and chain reaction experiment for kids 5+.

Billiards: collisions and momentum
A cue ball breaks a rack on a top-down table. Momentum passes from ball to ball — a collision experiment for kids 8+.

Wrecking ball: energy of motion
A heavy ball on a rod swings down and smashes a brick wall. An energy and momentum experiment for kids 7+.

A sensor opens the door: “if — then” logic
A ball rolls down a ramp and bumps a sensor, which turns green and removes the support under a second ball. Built from blocks.

The tablecloth trick: inertia
A tablecloth is pulled fast and slowly. The first time the cups stay on the table, the second time they ride off and fall.

Crash test: why wear a seat belt
Two carts with dummies hit a barrier. The belted one stays put, the unbelted one flies forward.

A train starts: why the wagons jerk one by one
A locomotive pulls five wagons with slack couplings. They start not together but one after another — a wave of jerks.

An avalanche and a protective forest
Snowballs roll down a mountain. Rows of trees on the slope slow the avalanche so less snow reaches the house.

A business card that falls apart: design meets physics
A neat business card built from 32 tiles, each with its own physics body. Press “Run” and the layout crumbles and drops to the floor.

The Tymora logo in 20 frames: twenty kinds of physics
One project, 20 frames, each with the Tymora logo and its own physics: Moon, zero gravity, ice, pendulum, spring, water, dominoes and more.
