8 Free Online Resources for Physics (2)

2. M Casco Associates Physics 1
M. Casco Associates publishes run-time books for physics or math students in high school or college. Subjects are mechanics, dynamical systems and chaos. They offer these books at no cost to anyone interested. Run-time books use mathematical simulations of the subject system instead of static illustrations, allowing experimentation with the concepts covered in the text. For folks who don't want to download and install the run-time books, they offer online versions of two of their titles, "Order" and "Physics 1". These are powered by Java rather than the C++ programs that power the run-time books.
The physics course covers Mechanics, Vector arithmetic, Newton's Laws of Motion, Circular Motion, Work and Energy, Collisions, Elasticity, Fluid Mechanics and Waves (Mechanical). The course has an exhaustive list of charts, images and graphs. Concepts which are difficult to grasp are prominently marked. The interactivity of the applets provided enhances the teaching capability of the site. Registered students (the registration is free) can directly contact the authors to clarify doubts.
