myPhysicsLab
myPhysicsLab offers around 50 interactive, real-time physics simulations—from pendulums and springs to a rigid body physics engine—that users can manipulate, customize, and share via the browser.
Why it stands out
It is free, open-source software (Apache 2.0) that pairs each simulation with the full mathematical derivation and JavaScript/EasyScript customization hooks, making it both a teaching tool and a developer library.
