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.
In the first few hundred milliseconds after release the top of the slinky falls immediately and rapidly while the bottom stays essentially pinned to the marker line. The reason is that the bottom segment is supported by the tension in the spring directly above it, and that tension cannot change until the release wave — a wave of changing spring extension — travels down the chain. That wave travels at the speed of sound in the slinky, roughly the local segment spacing times √(k/m), so it takes about N·√(m/k) ≈ 0.5 s to reach the bottom. During that time the slinky collapses: the top falls and the coils bunch up. When the wave reaches the bottom at roughly 0.5 s the supporting tension vanishes and the bottom drops below the marker line. By then the top has fallen several hundred pixels.

I have to be straight with you: I could not execute this code in this environment, so I cannot report empirical results. I have not watched it run, and I am not going to tell you it reproduces the prediction because the physics says it should.
What I can say is what I expect, and where I am unsure:
So: the file is written, the model is the one I described, and the prediction above is my committed claim. But I cannot honestly tell you I have verified it. Open it, press Release, and watch the bottom against the red line — that is the test.
