Ideal gases

The ideal gas law and the piston
This page demonstrates the ideal gas law using the pressure chamber. There are 3 possible experiments to do.

Balloon
This java applet demonstrates the properties of an ideal gas. The players can adjust the the pressure and the corresponding Maxwell Distribution is shown.

A model of gas, the kinetic theory

Kinetic Theory (University Level)

Heat and energy

A Water Boiling Experiment
This java applet shows an experiment on boiling water. The amount of water, the initial water temperature, and the heating power can be varied. The user are encouraged to think about how long will take the water to boil. The accuracy of what you guess, as a percentage of the actual time, will be displayed.

Random nature of decay

Radioactive Decay

Nucleus, Rutherford model of atom, binding energy, fission and fusion

Fusion Energy
This web site provides a description on what is fusion, the basic theory of fusion and also the applications of fusion.
