The software could overlay vectors (arrows) showing velocity, acceleration, and force directly on the objects. It also provided digital readouts (meters) for position, velocity, and energy, allowing for quantitative analysis.

Interactive Physics was a groundbreaking educational software that enabled users to create and manipulate simulations of physical systems, such as bridges, machines, and mechanisms. The program's intuitive interface and user-friendly tools made it easy for students, teachers, and hobbyists to design, test, and analyze various physics-based scenarios. interactive physics 1989

Users could drag and drop simple geometric shapes (circles, rectangles, polygons) onto a workspace. Each object had adjustable properties, such as mass, elasticity, and coefficient of friction. This was a departure from command-line simulations. such as bridges
