🌱 Conservation Laws: Elastic Collisions & Resource Stock (2D)

2D Canvas companion to the 3D conservation lab: a box of colliding discs conserves total kinetic energy and momentum while a logistic resource bar balances harvest against regrowth, with live readouts for both.

This 2D companion drives the same physics as the 3D version through a plain canvas view: a left pane holds discs that conserve kinetic energy and momentum through elastic collisions, and a right pane holds a resource bar following logistic growth minus harvest, with a live readout of both conserved and depleting quantities.

⚙ Under the hood

2D Canvas lab pairing elastic-collision conservation of energy/momentum with a logistic resource-stock model (dS/dt = r·S·(1-S/K) - H), the same sustainable-harvest bookkeeping used in fisheries and forestry planning.
