| - | - A student volunteer moves in an orbit described in a plot of effective potential vs. distance | + | - This kinesthetic activity is designed to help upper division undergraduate students interpret graphs of effective potential versus radial distance. |
| - | - Class discusses what information is present on such a plot (namely, only radial motion is explicitly described) | + | - A student volunteer moves in an orbit described in a plot of effective potential vs. distance. |
| + | - The whole class wrap-up discussion focuses on what information should be included on a plot of effective potential versus radial distance, noting the canonical plots constructed by professional physicists. | ||
