Features

Yenka uses a unified interface to model reactions in scientific and technological subject areas, often in 3D. The software is intended to display results in real time or simulated time at 0.1x or 10x speed, replicating actual results (for example, a completed circuit will illuminate a

light-emitting diode A light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that emits light when current flows through it. Electrons in the semiconductor recombine with electron holes, releasing energy in the form of photons. The color of the light (cor ...
