Physimulation is a tool for simulating and animating physical phenomena, and one of its main objectives is to integrate the knowledge acquired in introductory physics courses with a programming environment. With Physimulation, students can simulate physical behaviors studied in the classroom by creating scenarios and objects with different configurable properties. Examples of properties include mass, size, position, initial velocity, coefficient of friction, and elasticity. From ramps, small spheres, and fixed platforms to planets orbiting around a large mass object, both students and teachers can use the simulator to combine these objects and observe the results calculated in exercises. In addition, these scenarios can be saved in the system and loaded later for further observation.
