Physics concept makes students less understanding of differential equations of the concept of business and energy. Learning about basic physics about effort and energy can be done with the MATLAB program in the form of a physics calculator by simulating physics formulas. This research uses development research methods (R&D) with 4D development model (Define, Design, Development, and Dissemination). Matlab-based physics calculator are created using Matlab software through a multimedia development format that formula, simulation and theory. The test of the product response was applied on 29 the students. The response items were measured using the Likert scale from 1 to 4 scales. The analysis technique was descriptive statistics. For media expert validation assessment is 3.43 and for material expert validation is 3.64. Overall the result of student response analysis indicates that this physics calculator is good (3.21 out of 4) for use in learning. Basic physics learning with the help of an MATLAB-based physics calculator can help students understand their coursework in a simulated form.
