Animation: Orbits Around Black Holes


Recommended Posts

I've attached an animation that I created in order to teach myself some Java. This interactive animation displays orbits around black holes (still has a few glitches). The animation displays the path of a ball that is thrown from a platform that hovers above a black hole. The animation takes as input from the user the distance of the platform from the black hole, and the initial speed and angle (with respect to the hovering platform) at which the ball is thrown.

The animation has a number of short explanations and write-ups for some suggested virtual experiments that can be performed with the package.

To view and interact with the Java animation, unzip the compressed folder, and click on the file BlackHoleOrbits.html.
