The Wolfram Demonstrations Project contains thousands of free interactive visualizations, with new entries added daily.
A deformable body can rotate itself using only internal forces?without any external torque, keeping its angular momentum zero. This is the case for a cat falling from a tree and landing on its feet. The four masses at the vertices of a parallelogram in ...
