Welcome to LivePhysics.Com

LivePhysics.com is dedicated to physics, science, space and technology news. Latest research breakthroughs and innovations, science advances and scientific discussion forum. We continuously update our contents to provide worked physics problems and examples, organized by topic to provide free physics related homework help to students.

For students to develop the abilities that characterize science as inquiry, they must actively participate in scientific investigations, and they must actually use the cognitive and manipulative skills associated with the formulation of scientific explanations. We hope worked physics problems we provide in our site will help to easily understand the basic concepts of solving physics problems. Also we have created dynamic physics tools, which help you to find the answerer for many physics related problems.

LivePhysics.Com offers a complete working tool for science teaching and learning.

LivePhysics.Com is all at once:
A huge collection of online resources for students and teachers
We offer to science teachers and students a large collection of interactive Flash™ animations, Flash™ dynamic tools to solve problems, Java applet animations, interactive JavaScripts/ Ajax tools.

A working tool for students
Each animation comes together with scientific background behind the animation and guidelines allowing the students to review the key functionality illustrated by the animation.
