Electromag vs equivalence principle

Electromag is an educative application in support to a high-school or university course of electromagnetism. It contains not only a memorandum of the basic equations, but it also contains approximately twenty animations illustrating the various concepts of electromagnetism. This application runs also on iPad and iPod Touch 3rd generation and later. 50 screens of electromagnetism! For teachers !! Connect your iPad with a video projector and show the animations to your students in classroom. List of covered subjects: Electrostatics: Coulomb'sLaw, Electric Field, Gauss Theorem, Electric Potential, Capacitance. Electric Current: Current and Resistance, Circuits. Magnetism: Magnetic Field, Magnetic Fields Due to Currents, Electromagnetic Induction, Inductance. Electromagnetism: Maxwell Equations, Wave Equation. Physical Constants. Each section contains at least one animation of which some in 3D. List of animations: - Coulomb's law, - Electric field lines, - Movement of a charge in electric field, - Electric dipole, - Lead-acid battery, - Torque on a current loop (in 3D), - Charge in magnetic field, - Cyclotron, - Induction field due to a current in a long straight wire (in 3D), - Generator (in 3D).

This app represents the equivalence principle which states that gravitational and inertial forces are of a similar nature and often indistinguishable. Left rocket is moving up with constant acceleration a, and right rocket is on the some planet where the gravitational acceleration is g. If a is equal to g, the motion of a ball which is dropped in the left rocket is the same as the motion of a ball which is dropped in the right rocket; two balls experience the same constant acceleration motion. This is the simple demonstration of the equivalence principle. This app doesn't simulate the whole motion of a ball. Only falling motion is intended to show the equivalence principle.
