Physics simulations for Microsoft Excel
Microsoft Excel Vector Solver
Solve 2 dimensional, non perpendicular vector addition problems on a spreadsheet students create from scratch. Outstanding concept review for adding vectors of all types.
Students construct the spreadsheet in a computer lab or at home and then answer questions about how they programmed the spreadsheet and then solve problems using the spreadsheet. The answer key provides full descriptions of any/all necessary spreadsheet manipulations so it is perfect for a teacher needing to brush up on Ex

Coding for Physics - Projectile Motion
A spreadsheet template that teaches simple mathematical coding in order to solve equations of motion. Includes a video demonstration of how to write all code. Once complete, students may input initial conditions and computer will auto-calculate displacement in two axis (x-axis or range, y-axis or height) and velocity in both axis and then graphs results.
Teacher's Edition is hidden on each page with additional video resources, and link to Google Sheets version of this activity. To find open

Projectile Motion Calculator
This excel spreadsheet calculates the total travel time, time to reach peak, maximum range, and maximum height of a projectile. The user simply enters in the speed, launch angle, and surface gravity of whatever planet you're considering and the spreadsheet will do all of the calculations. It also graphs the trajectory.

Terminal Velocity Simulation Written on a Spreadsheet
EXPAND THE USE OF SPREADSHEETS IN YOUR PHYSICS CURRICULUM... This Physics activity good for all levels of Physics is a free preview of "The Spreadsheet Lab Manual." It guides students to construct a mathematical simulation starting from a blank spreadsheet that quantitatively models freefall with air resistance as an object reaches terminal velocity. Students will be guided through an inquiry based simulation as they answer assessment questions and gain skills on spreadsheets while manipulati
