Swinging Atwoods Machine

{{$t('general.by')}}
The Swinging Atwood's machine consists of two masses connected via a pulley, where one mass is allowed to swing. The result is a chaotic system. Click to set initial position and velocity; the mass ratio slider on the right is crucial in governing the behaviour of the system. Press r to reset everything except mass ratio; press g to toggle the graphs; press f to toggle whether to only show the trajectory; press d to "fast forward" the simulation; press s to crash the program.
