Physics 101 overview

Physics 101 contains over 75 equations and over a dozen simulations and tools covering the most important aspects of physics.

Whether you are a teacher wanting to augment your lessons or a student wanting better grasp of the material, Physics 101 is your go-to solution.

Physics is more than just a numerical answer - it is about understanding the rich nature behind the equations.

I have also experienced total unresponsiveness from PRAETER with regard to licensing issues. It was easier to buy a new license - instant response! - than to get any reply to my questions about prior licensing from the developer. Go figure. But then again, I bought a new license. Just don't expect any after-sale support.

I used this for my tutoring sessions since it gave me instant ability to show what happens... until I upgraded my laptop and had to re-download the software. Not only was the old version unavailable, but my pass didn't work with the new one. When I bought I new SN through the paypal option, I never got it sent via email. Over 5 emails have gone unanswered by the developer... Bad business and a very unhappy customer.

I had this gem a few years ago but lost it through OS X uninstalls and reinstalls. I forgot what a great app it really is. I did not have this as a student but I get much, much more than my money's worth from it, as a useful, convenient tool and a pleasant diversion away from work. This is an indispensable item, at an absolutely incredible price. Thank you Praeter Software!
