Thanks, In the physics class I teach we go through the examples from the notes. Then, we follow up with real world labs and engineering projects to make it even more concrete. I might make my next project documenting the demos and labs that go with each unit.

Well done. Two small things I have loved when I came across them: 5 Min Physics from UQ (PHYS1171) https://teaching.smp.uq.edu.au/fiveminutephysics/index.html#course=phys1171&lecture=L34_QuantifyingRadioactivity https://teaching.smp.uq.edu.au/fiveminutephysics/index.html#... Newton's cannon. Look at its beautifully simple source code - one short html + javascript file (I see your javascript code for orbital motion is similarly easy to follow.) https://physics.weber.edu/schroeder/html5/NewtonsCannon4.html https://physics.weber.edu/schroeder/html5/NewtonsCannon4.htm... Something I was going to further explore, if I had had to do more physics tutoring/teaching: https://www.geogebra.org/m/M4nBYbbG#material/fHHvnhjm https://www.geogebra.org/m/M4nBYbbG#material/fHHvnhjm

  Note that there are other "5 min Physics" explanations and demos from UQ: https://teaching.smp.uq.edu.au/fiveminutephysics/index.html https://teaching.smp.uq.edu.au/fiveminutephysics/index.html

> follow up with real world labs I wonder if you could connect various chapters in the notes with hands on experiments people could try based on data collected from https://phyphox.org/ https://phyphox.org/ I installed this app and I was surprised by all the sensors and data it can collect, but I didn't have a particular experiment in mind. It would be awesome to connect the examples and math model with real-world experiments.

    Nice! Lots of good ideas there. What is even cooler, they have a build-your-own-experiment graphical wizard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhhJGdXypg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhhJGdXypg
