THREE-DIMENSIONAL WEB-BASED PHYSICS SIMULATION APPLICATION FOR PHYSICS LEARNING TOOL
Abstract: The purpose of this
research is to present a multimedia application for doing simulation in
Physics. The application is a web based simulator that implementing HTML5,
WebGL, and JavaScript. The objects and the environment will be in three
dimensional views. This application is hoped will become the substitute for
practicum activity. The current development is the application only covers
Newtonian mechanics. Questionnaire and literature study is used as the data
collecting method. While Waterfall Method used as the design method. The result
is Three-DimensionalPhysics Simulator as online web application.
Three-Dimensionaldesign and mentor-mentee relationship is the key features of
this application. The conclusion made is Three-DimensionalPhysics Simulator
already fulfilled in both design and functionality according to user. This
application also helps them to understand Newtonian mechanics by simulation.
Improvements are needed, because this application only covers Newtonian
Mechanics. There is a lot possibility in the future that this simulation can
also covers other Physics topic, such as optic, energy, or electricity.
