VPython

VPython is a Python graphics module used for modeling objects in 3-dimensional space. In the field of physics, this is especially useful for calculating and modeling complex relationships between objects and their properties.

Kinetic Energy

Energy is based in whole on Einstein's principle of E=MC^2. At its base it is the concept of how objects interact with their surroundings, their natural energy, or rest energy, the energy that they create when in motion(Kinetic energy) and how energy can change given different interactions which are based on einsteins principle.

A Mathematical Model

There are [math]\displaystyle{ E=lambdamc^2 }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ E=mc^2 }[/math] which reprsents the rest energy. taken together the kinetic energy becomes the overall energy- rest energy. Due to the complexity of this equation, it maybe easier to use the equation [math]\displaystyle{ 1/2mv^2 }[/math] if the object is not traveling near the speed of light. This equation is applicable to everyday object that we see and more applicable for the "average" situation.

h

What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
