published by the Siltec
This website features an extensive collection of animations of physical processes, demonstrating various concepts in waves, optics, mechanics, electricity, and thermodynamics. One distinctive characteristic of this site is that the animations are accompanied by details of the relevant physics theory pertaining to each concept, written in language appropriate for the student of introductory physics. Formulas, equations, and derivations are also provided.

Editor's Note: The videos may be viewed from the website, but are not directly downloadable. CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray versions are available for purchase for $25-30, with customizable versions available at a higher price.
