The Physics standards emphasize a more complex understanding of experimentation, the analysis of data and the use of reasoning and logic to evalute evidence. Key areas covered by the standards include force and motion, kinetic molecular theory, energy transformations, wave phenomena and the electromagnetic spectrum, light, electricity, fields, and non-Newtonian physics. The standards stress the practical application of physics in other areas of science and technology and how physics affects our world. A network of sites lead by an expert guide. This site includes a comprehensive listing of Physics-related sites from Newton's Law, tutorials on quantum physics, physics reference data and much more. A web-based demonstration
of how amusement park rides use physics law to simulate danger, provides
a physics glossary to explain termology. Features nine ways to learn about fusion energy: An Internet Plasma Physics EXperience which includes links on matter, electricity, magnetism, energy, and fusion. General Atomics Fusion Groups Educational Home Page Explains the fusion
process, provides a fusion glossary and links to web sites with information
on high temperature fusion This site was designed to encourage everyone to learn about the physics and science of the world around them, select from a variety of different physic-related topics from various time periods from the most recent to 1996. A database of a variety of physic-related topics with articles explaining how stuff works. An interactive tour of current research in material science at a science lab in Berkley, California. A website created by Illinois teachers for students about physics, includes multimedia physics studio, a quiz room, laboratory, review session and miscellaneous help. May have limited access to to some links. On-line education and reference guide that provides updated physics news from a news network, a question of the day, on-line forums to discuss physic topics and editorial articles in addition to an updated reference section where you will find everything from fundamental constants, nuclear and particle data, unit conversions, periodic table of elements, details about our solar system, to the exact time from the US naval atomic clock and the current phase of the moon. Quick overview of physic topics, focus includes motion, theromodynamics, light, modern physics (quantium, mechanics, atoms, radioactivity, fission, nuclear, fusion) and electricity. Allows learner to take a quiz to test knowledge. An interactive journey through modern physics including Einstein's revolution in physics and basic principles of waves, quantum mechanics, polorization, and the periodic table.
