##Look at the graph – what are the variables in the bar chart?  Where has the thermal energy come from? What do you expect will happen to the simple pendulum?

====Saving the files and formats====

===Downloading or saving simulations===
PhET simulation does not have its own file format, which you can save the web link in .html format. However you can create image files of the PhET simulation you are working on, by using the Screenshot application.  [[Learn Record My Desktop|Screencast recording]] of a simulation can be done to create resources for the classroom.
+
On this PhET official website, simulations are available in two different formats: Java and HTML. Once you download eighter of files, it doesn't need internet connectivity. 
 +
 
 +
{{Note}} Java simulation required JAVA software to open and use it. whereas html simulations just need any internet browsers to open and work on it. For the smartphone users use only html format simulations.
 +
 
 +
Here is the detailed steps to download both kind of simulations:
 +
 
 +
* '''Java Version Simulations''': Java simulations run only on the computer and smartphones do not support these simulations files. To download these Java simulations for the computer, click on the one you want to download, find the download icon on the screen, and click on it to save the Java file to your computer.  [https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/filter?type=java Access all the JAVA-based simulations from this link]
 +
 
 +
* '''HTML-Based Simulations''': html simulations can be downloaded and used on both computer and smartphones it doesn't need any additional software to use them. To download an HTML simulation, click on the one you want to download, find the download icon on the screen, and click on it to save the html file to your device (smartphone/computer).  
 +
** [https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/filter?type=html Access all the HTML-based simulations from this link] Once the files has been downloaded to your device go to the downloaded file path and open with browser.
