Physics animations and film clips.

Downloads for Electric motors and generators, Homopolare motors and generators and AC Circuits.

Downloads

Each of the mechanics modules has a multimedia tutorial with various support pages and each animation and film clip may be downloaded in zip files, either individually or in a single zip file for each module.

The animations are freely available for educational purposes. The links back to the Physclips Project on each resource must not be obscured. If you do decide to use any of the animations for teaching, we should appreciate being able to view the usage or any comments/suggestions on the usefulness or shortcomings of the resources (you can email us at J.Wolfe@phys.unsw.edu.au).

Electric motors and generators (related animations from Physclips)

    The animations in this section have not yet been converted from Flash (swf files. Flash is unsupported). You can use the free Swivel software to convert the swf file to mp4. There's a youtube tutorial on using Swivel for this conversion. Essentially, once you've ownloaded and installed Swivel, you select your swf file and choose convert to mp4. It saves to original location/folder as the swf file, but with a different suffix: samename.mp4.
