توضح هذه التجربة أنه عند وضع جسم ما في سائل، يزيح الجسم كمية من السائل تساوي كتلتها كتلة الجسم نفسه. علاوة على ذلك، فإن حجم السائل المُزاح يساوي حجم الجزء المغمور من الجسم.

Newton’s second law states that net force and acceleration are directly proportional, with mass as the constant of proportionality (F=ma). This experiment uses an anvil supported by air pressure to demonstrate that even when weight is counteracted, the anvil’s huge mass still requires enormous force to accelerate it from rest. A powerful illustration of the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration.

If this future becomes reality, there will be a massive wave of job displacement as AI takes over across various industries and job markets. But a wide horizon of opportunities will rise. Instead of a position of making decisions in a company, there will be a position of training the AI to make that decision and to maintain its logic.
As a bizarre example, companies might not need IT (Information Technology) officers anymore! Instead, they might employ AIT (Artificial Intelligence Technology) officers, whose main responsibility is training and maintaining the company’s AI model to solve the company’s technical issues!

Looking back, I wish I had access to tools like DeepSeek. During my development process. In my recent experimenting with this open-source AI model, I’ve found it provides structured, research-paper-like responses with meaningful technical information from the first interaction. This would have significantly streamlined my research phase. Definitely, DeepSeek wouldn’t have appeared if ChatGPT hadn’t existed in the first place. But the super abilities that DeepSeek came with as it came into existence, plus being open-source, makes it super competent to the existing AI tools.

I created this course and published it on my Moodle platform. Each module is comprised of SCORM package and a quiz, with an unofficial completion certificate as a template that can be costumed to the specifications of your organization. The course is tracked, and you must successfully complete each chapter to unlock the next one. The course is fully learner-centered.

With this simulation, you can experiment the refraction of light between air and a transparent semi-disk. You can choose the material of the disk from a list of materials. Also, you can determine the index of refraction of the semi-disk when you apply Snell’s law to measurements you take in the simulation.

The paper: Using a web-based and stand-alone oscilloscope for physics experiment during Covid-19 pandemic, Mahizah Ismail et al (2023), Phys. Educ. 58 015006, is based on the Virtual Oscilloscope simulation. This paper was authored by Mahizah Ismail, Farid Minawi, Wan Zul Adli Wan Mokhtar, Noraihan L Abdul Rashid and Ahmad K Ariffin.
