This is a great way to teach physics. I definitely understand LRC circuits better for having played with this. I also have a lot of suggestions.
- The dynamic text boxes on the bottom should be placed next to their corresponding sliders. Make the circuit diagram much larger so that text boxes can be placed inside it.
- You should write the instructions in HTML, then embed the Flash movie in the HTML file. I wish I could highlight the text. I would like to see the simulation and the instructions on the same screen. When I go back to the instructions, the simulation resets. All these would be fixed by porting the instructions to HTML. You can type them out in Microsoft Word (for equations, press Alt-Equal) and export it all as HTML.
- I'm used to seeing plots against time. But I'm having trouble imagining how that would look. Maybe add an option for current vs time.
- I want more freedom to choose bad parameters. Shouldn't the current go negative in some cases? RLC_transient_plot.svg
- It's tough to tell what the grid lines mean. Though the moving labels are nice for the peak, it's good to have static axis labels too.
- Your sliders do not look like sliders. You should use the ones provided with Flash (Components window > Slider).
That's probably more advice than you wanted, but I think this could be a great teaching tool without too much extra effort.
Thank you for your comments. I shall try to implement them in due course.
