Abstract
ARRIAGA, F; STANECK, J. P; LANZINI, F and FORNARO, O. Implementation of a software tool for the study of central-force problems. An. AFA [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.3, pp.73-77. ISSN 0327-358X.
A computational implementation for the numerical solution of the central-force problem was developed for teaching purposes. The implementation allows the visualization of the effective potential and the path of a reduced mass particle around the center of force. The use of this tool allows to complement the resolution of problems with analytic solution, and to study problems not analytically solvable.
