         This page is a collection of links to sites on the web that have computerized simulations of physics principles. These might be in the form of a Java Applet, a  Shockwave demonstration or an Activity Worksheet, but the basic purpose is the same in all cases: to allow students to see a visual demonstration of a scientific concept, often in animated form. In addition, the student may be given the opportunity to manipulate one or more variables underlying the concept and then witness the changes. 

         The following themes are covered : fundamentals, machines, Thermodynamics, Lights, Astrophysics, Mecanics, Measurement, Simple Harmonic Motion, Lights and optics, maths and computers, Momentum, Fluids, Color Theory, Waves, Chemistry, Rotation Mechanics, Electricity, Sound, Nuclear, Collections. Each of these theme has a collection of links towards a simulation/animation.
