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.

Bouncing balls: what is elasticity

Three balls fall from the same height but bounce differently. A simple physics experiment for kids 5+: elasticity, energy and rebound.

Heavy and light: do they fall the same?

Galileo’s classic experiment, made interactive: a heavy and a light ball fall from the same height. Which lands first? Physics for kids 6+.

Sink or float: buoyancy

Five bodies of different density drop into water: cork, wood, ice, brick and an iron ball. Which sink and which float?

Basketball: make the shot

A ball flies along a parabola toward the hoop. Tune the speed and angle; the sensor under the basket turns green on a score.

A stone arch without mortar

Nine wedge stones hold each other and a load on top. Remove the keystone and the arch collapses.

Sorting by size: a sieve

Small and large balls pour onto a tilted grate. The small ones drop into the left bin, the big ones roll on to the right.

Spring scale: a spring measures weight

Weights of 0.5, 1 and 2 kg and one unknown hang on identical springs. A spring stretches in proportion to the load, so the ruler reveals the mass.

A jump on the Moon: six times higher

A boy jumps at the same speed as on Earth, but gravity here is lunar (1.62 m/s²). Marks show the jump height on Earth and on the Moon.
