-  - 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.
