    My Solar System Name Period Introduction: Every physics student has had a lot of experience with the force of gravity. Unfortunately‚ this experience is limited to the interaction between a very large object‚ the Earth‚ and much smaller objects that are very close to it. This is a very limited range of the possibilities. Software simulations of gravity allow physics students to explore a variety of other gravitational interactions between objects. These activities are designed to be used
