I will explain some, skip some, and you can mess around with it when you're feeling ready.\n\nBut first, let's see what it does. Hit *Run*!\n\nWatch the balls bounce. Pick them up and drop them! Toss them!\n\nNotice also, if you scroll down a little, a \"Stats Panel\" will appear containing some scientific words and numbers.\n\nMove a ball around and watch those numbers change. Any guesses for what they mean?\n\n.\n.\n.\n\nThe most straightforward is 'position.' Those numbers describe *where* the ball is on the screen.\nQuestions: What do the 'x' and 'y' show? What does a positive vs. a negative number mean?\n\nThose numbers are measured in little squares from the black dot in the middle of the ground. Let's check that!\n\nNumbers that describe where something is are called *coordinates*. \nMathematicians, scientists, and programmers use coordinates ALL THE TIME, in the real world and in imagined worlds.\n\n[Let's do a little coordinate practice.]\n\nBIG IDEA: Any time you use a number to describe or measure something, you're using *coordinates.*\n\nIn math, physics, and coding, the x-coordinate measures left-and-right; the y-coordinate measures up-and-down.\n\nYou also have to measure *from* some point that you call home.\n\n\"I am sitting 7 feet left and 2 feet down from my door.\"\n\n\"I am 3 miles north and 8 miles west of City Hall.\"\n\n\"This rocket is 30,000 meters above Brownsville, TX.\"\n\nAnd in our little example here: \"The red ball is 3 squares right (x) and 10 squares up (y) from the *origin point* in the middle of the ground.\"\n\nSince coordinates are numbers, they can also be decimals or fractions, and even negative. If right is positive, left is negative, and so on.\n\n[Think of some examples of measuring things with coordinates — using numbers!]\n\n~ ~ ~\n\nNow we know how to describe *where* a ball (or anything) is.\n\nBut physics is about how things *move.*\n\nCan you think of any numbers that describe how something moves?\n\nThe straightforward answer is *speed*. \n\n\"I am running 7 miles an hour.\"\n\n\"The car is driving 60 miles per hour.\"\n\n\"The rocket is blasting off at 100 meters per second.\"\n\nWhen we talk about speed, we include a measurement of *distance* and a measuremet of *time*.\n\nOn a computer screen, we can talk about distance using *pixels* or we can use the little squares that the program draws on screen.\nFor time, we can use seconds, but we can also use *frames.* A frame is one flash of an image on a computer screen.\nPrograms like this demo and lots of video games run at 60 frames per second. Every second, 60 images flash on the screen!\nWe can use that tiny unit of time as a measurement for our program.\n\nSo instead of \"miles per hour,\" we can measure speed as \"squares per frame.\"\n\nThe word physicists use for speed is **velocity.**\n\nVelocity is a measurement of how much distance something traveled divided by how much time has passed.\n\nLet's do a little bit of math practice with velocity!\n\n[...]\n\nToss one of the balls and watch its velocity. Pay attention to negative vs. positive.\n\nImportant question: why does the ball have *two* velocites, X and Y? What does that mean?\n\nThink about it this way: if I say I am moving 3 mph, it would be fair to ask me \"in what direction?\"\nI could be moving North, South, East, West, up, down, left, right, diagonal...anything.\nIn physics, we can measure a tilted velocity as a mix of X and Y. [Draw example.]\nTest it out by tossing the balls around!\n\nThe green arrow coming out of each ball represents its velocity. It points in the direction the ball is moving, and the faster the ball moves, the longer the arrow.\n\n~ ~ ~\n\nNow let's focus on how velocity changes as the ball moves and bounces.\n\nLet a ball bounce up and down. Describe how the green arrow changes. Watch it get longer and shorter.\n\nWhat causes that?\n\nWhen velocity changes, we call it *acceleration.* \"Accelerate\" means \"speed up\" or \"change speed.\"\n\nIn the world of physics, acceleration happens because of *force* — a push or a pull.\n\nIn our little playground, there are two sources of force:\n1) Collisions — when balls crash into each other or bounce off walls;\n2) *Gravity.*\n\nWhat's gravity?\n\nIt's a force! It's the force of the Earth pulling everything else towards it.\n\nGravity pulls you towards the ground so you don't float away. But gravity isn't that strong, so your muscles can overcome it — if only for a moment — when you stand up or jump.\n\nLet's think about this. Why is the force of gravity enough to create the beautiful smooth motion of the ball?\n\nThe \"story\" of the ball bouncing:\n\n0. Hold the ball above the ground. It is not moving at all. No velocity.\n1. Let it go. Gravity pulls down on the ball, causing it to accelerate. Its downward velocity increases. Slowly at first, then faster and faster.\n2. The longer gravity pulls on it, the faster the ball goes.\n3. The ball reaches its maximum downward velocity a moment before it hits the ground.\n4. When the ball hits the ground, the ground hits it with a quick force *upwards*, causing it to accelerate off the ground.\n5. When it first bounces, the ball is moving fast. But gravity is pulling down!\n6. The downward pull of gravity causes the ball to slow down until it comes to a stop at the peak of its trajectory.\n7. Gravity keeps pulling down, so the ball begins to fall again...the cycle repeats!\n\nWe can even play with the strength of gravity in our simulation. That's the power of code!\n\nhit 'Pause' and type in different numbers in the 'Acceleration' boxes. \nYou can make it like gravity is stronger or weaker, or points sideways!\n\nA HUGE question that you can think about for a long time:\n\"How is the force that pulls objects onto the ground the same force that makes the Moon orbit th Earth and the Earth orbit the Sun?\"\nIsaac Newton came up with the first good answer to that question in the 1680s!\n\nWe'll talk about it. Next time we'll get into how I wrote some of this code, how you can read it, edit it, and how you can write your own!\n\n\n\n*/\n\n///////// #VARIABLES //////////\n// We will store all the balls in an array.\nlet balls = [];\n// This will keep track of which ball has been clicked last\nlet selectedBall = null;\n// For colors, as we add new balls\nlet currentHue = 0;\n// Will be an HTML element that shows stats of a ball\nlet statsDiv;\nlet playPauseButton;\nlet isPaused = false;\nlet isDragging = false;\n\n// How high the ground level will be, measured from the *top* of the canvas\nlet groundHeight = 500;\n// Will be used when we set up our coordinate system.\nlet yOffset;\nlet xOffset;\n\n// Represents the strength of gravity\nlet gravity = 0.25;\n\n//////// #MAIN FUNCTIONS/////////\nfunction setup() {\n //Adjust frameRate to speed up or slow down the simulation.
