If you're a physics enthusiast or would simply like to understand more about Newtonian laws and rules in physics, this simulation app could be what you've been looking for. With Gravit, you can use 3D visual aids to actually see patterns created by gravity patterns.

In case you think you'll be witnessing the famous apple falling, you're wrong. This program is much more accurate in the patterns it creates. The end results might look jaw-dropping, but keep in mind they're also accurate.

The application will be constantly displaying all sorts of parameters. Things you'll be able to see are particles used, frames and fluidity elements, allocated tree nodes, and used RAM. At the bottom of the app window, you'll most likely notice a live log of what the program is doing and the adjustments it needs to apply to perform at its best.

What you'll be seeing is two elements interacting according to the laws of gravity. Whether this is for yourself or for other users such as a class of students, there won't be any yawns during any presentation done with this software.

Keep in mind that the app simulation is not a static one. You can freely navigate around it if you need to get a closer look. Use the space bar to launch a new simulation. Hold down any mouse button and drag it across the screen to change your in-simulation orientation.

The scroll wheel works like a magnifier. Scroll up, and you'll be zooming in on the action. Scroll down, and you'll be drifting far from it. The A and Z keys can also be used for the same purpose.

Gravit is an interesting application if you're into physics. It doesn't necessarily explain what it shows. You will need to catch up on those lessons if you want to truly understand what is happening on screen. Keep in mind that this is a simulation program and not an online lesson program.
