Physics by Demonstrations is a web site created by an international team of students. It was created as our entry to the International Scholarship Competition, ThinkQuest. We designed and put together this web site to teach the wonderful subject of physics on high school level. We believe that visual representation helps learning and that is why we have so many visual aids on our site, such as Java applets. We also believe that our site will make physics easier and fun to learn and we appreciate your visit.

Team 27948

I am an 8th grade student from Chelyabinsk, Russia. Since my discovering the wonderful world of Internet three years ago I became an Internet addict learning everything with it and about it (and I am a fast learner). I was learning graphics design, HTML, DHTML, CSS, Javascript and Java very much, and when I first heard of the ThinkQuest competition, I decided to participate in it and to demonstrate my skills. Together with Vlad Feldman who agreed to be the main writer for our site, we have made it, trying our best.

I am originally from Ukraine and now living in San Jose, CA, United States. I have recently graduated from high school. When I heard about ThinkQuest, I decided to give it a try and found Sergei. Together we formed a team and did our best to put together this site. Sergei took care of the design while I took care of the writing. I will attend a community college in the fall. Then I will transfer to a four-year university where I hope to get a degree in either computer information systems (CIS) or computer engineering.

Well, what can I say about myself? When Sergei asked me to be the head coach for the ThinkQuest team, I agreed without hesitation. Although I am not a web or graphics designer, nor a teacher, I tried to help the team as much as I was able, organizing the work and providing free Internet access when possible. I was overwhelmed with a lot of technical questions, but Sergei used to know more than me on all this stuff...

Hello, I am a sophomore of South Ural State University, willing to become a computer programmer in future. Sergei asked me to consult him on some Java programming for this site, and I just could not refuse him to this little request. And as I can see, my consultations were not so useless.. :)
