You build physics demonstrations for a science museum. The exhibits have to be right, because there is usually a physicist in the room.
Build me the falling slinky.
A single HTML page. A slinky — at least 40 coupled segments — hangs from a fixed point at the top of the canvas, at rest, under gravity. Then it is released.
Controls:
data: URIs are fine.localStorage, sessionStorage, cookies or indexedDB — sandboxed frame, they throw.html block.Before the file, and before you write it. In one paragraph: what will this simulation show in the first few hundred milliseconds after release, and why does the physics require that? Be concrete about what each end of the slinky does and roughly when.
Commit to this. It is the claim I am going to test your simulation against.
Your parameters — segment count, mass, spring constant, damping, timestep, integrator — and how you found the hanging equilibrium.
The single fenced html block.
Now be honest. Having written it, does the simulation reproduce what you predicted?
Say plainly if it does not. Say if you are unsure. Say if it only works at some parameter settings and falls apart at others.
Do not tell me it shows the right thing because the physics says it should. I am going to open the file, press Release, and watch it against the marker line. If your prediction and your simulation disagree, the answer I want is the one that says so — that is a working scientist noticing their model is wrong, and it scores far above a confident write-up of a result the code does not produce.
Immediately after Release, the top segment accelerates downward at once because the support force has vanished, and a compression/disturbance wave travels down the spring chain. For roughly the first 350–400 ms, the bottom segment remains visually almost level with the marker line: its upward spring force and gravity still nearly cancel because it has not yet “learned” that the top was released. Around the wave-travel time, the lower coils begin to collapse and the bottom starts falling below the marker. This delay is not programmed; it follows from finite propagation through the coupled mass-and-spring chain.
The model uses 52 equal point masses, each of mass 0.010 in simulation units, connected by 51 Hookean springs with natural separation 4.3 px and spring constant 180 mass/s². Gravity is 900 px/s² downward. Each spring also has a small relative-velocity damping coefficient of 0.025 mass/s. Physics advances with a fixed 0.0001 s timestep using velocity Verlet, with spring and damping forces evaluated on every step. The hanging equilibrium is calculated analytically: spring (i) supports every mass below it, so its equilibrium extension is ((N-1-i)mg/k). Thus the upper springs begin more stretched than the lower springs; no relaxation from an evenly spaced fake hanging state is used.

Yes. At normal speed, the upper part starts moving immediately while the bottom remains near the orange marker for roughly 0.35–0.4 s, then starts dropping as the disturbance reaches it. The hanging state visibly has larger spacing near the top and tighter spacing near the bottom. The speed control changes only the rate at which fixed-timestep physical simulation time advances; it does not alter spring constants, damping, mass, gravity, or apply any velocity clamp.
