Curated OER
A Vector With Components Shadowed
An exceptional tutorial on the topic of vectors that offers many helpful graphics, some of which are interactive.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Amplitude Modulation
A simple picture showing amplitude modulation. The thin line goes quickly from top to bottom as it moves from left to right.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Anechoic Chamber
A photo taken from the inside of an anechoic chamber. The effect of rebounding sound waves is kept to a minimum in such an anechoic chamber thanks to the large surface area that absorbs most of the noise.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Anemometer
This photo shows an anemometer, a weather measurement device used to gauge the strength of the wind.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Basic Atom Structure
This diagram shows a basic atom structure with an atom core, proton, neutron and electron.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Broken Piston
This picture shows a broken piston and connecting rod from a scooter.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Cessna 350
A side on photo of a Cessna 350 displayed at an aviation show. Other planes can be seen in the background as well as people attending the event.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Cylindrical Lenses

Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Electricity Circuit Diagram
This basic electricity circuit diagram shows a resistor and ammeter in series, a voltmeter in parallel and a switch with a cell for charging purposes.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Falling Sign
A black and yellow warning sign showing a person falling backwards over an edge.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
This photo shows the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The Main Ring and Main Injector can easily be seen from the air, as well as the circular ponds that dissipate waste heat from the various equipment.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Force of Attraction
This image demonstrates the force of attraction between oppositely charged objects, in this case two pieces of tape. For more information, take a look at repulsive force in action.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Forces of Lift
This diagram shows the forces of lift that affect the wing of an aircraft. Lift, thrust, weight and drag all affect the flight of the aircraft as well as the angle of attack.
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Fuel Injector
This is a cross section diagram showing the inner workings of a fuel injector. The labeled parts include the solenoid, fuel filter, valve spring, plunger, spray tip and atomised fuel. The solenoid components and fuel injector assembly...
Curated OER
Science Kids: Science Images: Gears
This image shows a large gear and a small gear from two different angles. Understanding how gears work is important when learning about mechanical advantage and simple machines.
