The Physics Classroom

The Physics Classroom Tutorial is an online physics tutorial written for high school physics students. The tutorial was originally developed for physics students at Glenbrook South High School in Glenview, Illinois.

The Tutorial covers basic physics topics using informative graphics and an easy-to-understand language. Each unit is broken up into lessons and sub-lessons. A lesson resembles the type and extent of coverage given to that physics topic in class. The sub-lessons are accompanied by Check Your Understanding sections, providing an opportunity to assess one's understanding of the lesson material. The tutorial, when combined with other resources at this site provides a student of physics a great opportunity to learn and to test their understanding.

Nikon | Feel Nikon | Universcale

We are able to view all entities, from the microworld to the universe, from a single perspective. By setting them up against a scale, we are able to compare and understand things which cannot be physically compared.

Today, using the electron microscope and astronomical telescope, we can see the objects which we have not been aware of its existence before. Are you able to fathom, or even roughly grasp, these sizes?

See our Universcale and experience the sizes of various objects.

The Periodic Table of the Elements, Standard Form

This website, periodictable.com is a complete periodic table reference containing just about all the information a student would need to know about each of the chemical elements.

It is based on a combination of research-grade technical data with a very large volume of text about, and photographs of, the elements and their applications. My name is Theodore Gray and I am the principle author of this website, having written nearly all the text and taken nearly all the photographs. In addition to maintaining this website I write a monthly column on topics in science and chemistry for Popular Science magazine, and am a co-founder of Wolfram Research, Inc., makers of Mathematica.
