Physics by Paint
The first one I saw is called Crayon Physics. A first first prototype is available for download but it's not as enhanced as the final game will be. Have a look at the video for what will be possible when released 1): ...
A video on the physics of everyday objects
Here is a short video describing some of the nice physics associated with everyday objects and phenomena over at Harvard magazine (link via iMechanica):. The wrinkling in an elephant’s trunk and in billionth-of-a-meter nanotubes proceed ...
Physics versus Fear
This is a classic example of a “put your money (or nose) where your mouth is” physics demonstration. It also appears in Carl Sagan’s novel Contact (1985), for example, and Feynman did it during the freshman physics lectures he gave at ...
Speeding applet
I would like to have an applet that shows the consequenses of speeding. In Urban area it is only allowed to have a speed of 50 km/h. Let us assume that a child steps into the street and that a car just manages to stop with a margin of 0 ...

Cocktail Party Physics
With tidbits about how rats hear with their whiskers, and the physics of NASCAR, you could be too. Longer posts that you sometimes see in a blog, but great stuff for all of us wanna-be physicists.
Quantum Physics + Breathing-In Exercise = Health
But in such a way, with the help of the Laws of Quantum Physics and the internet (these are gifts of the Age of Aquarius), that each one of us will be able to recieve direct knowledge of this wisdom. We will Know! ...
GTA IV Physics Demo
Demo of the Euphoria engine used in GTA IV. Shows a lot of things using the engine that will probably be in the game.
Nuclear Fission/Fussion
Is it appropriate to start a thread in the nuclear physics part of the site on both nuclear fission and nuclear fussion. The reason I am asking is because I know the forum guidelines have touched upon bombs and illegal activities, ...
Single Loop Circuit Energy Conservation
My physics textbook states the following about a single loop circuit with a resistor and ideal battery. "From the principle of conservation of energy, the work done by the (ideal) battery must equal the thermal energy that appears in ...
