About

FísicaLab is an educational application to solve physics problems. Is made with GNUstep and use the GSL libraries (GNU Scientific Library). The problems are setting adding elements from the palette to chalkboard, and writing the data of each element. The elements are objects as Blocks, Pulleys, Mobiles, Forces, ... . Use the SI and English systems, scientific notation and many conversion factors. The problems that can be solved with FísicaLab 0.2, are:

• Kinematics of particles, include circular motion.
• Static of particles and rigid bodies in 2D.

• Dynamic of particles in 2D (doesn't include dynamic of circular motion).
• Heat, calorimetry, ideal gas and expansion.

The static and dynamic problems are entered constructing the free body diagrams of the objects. Although FísicaLab is easy and intuitive, we recommend you read the help files first before set any problem. You can access these files in the option menu Info -> Help.
