The goal with Galileo is to explain with simple words, the complex yet beautiful physics that is inside everything in our world. Contents are presented in small articles, written with a simple language. The articles covers various topics from mechanics to nuclear physics. Articles includes images, animations, 3D models and sometimes a little equation. Get a better understanding of physics with Augmented Reality! Place experiments and animated 3D models on you table and explore them by moving around.

About

Physics Light Practice

Features
Read full description

Physics Light Practice is an educational application designed to help students prepare for NEET and JEE examinations through structured practice in ray optics, wave optics, and modern physics topics related to light. The app provides chapter-wise quizzes, mock tests, and daily practice questions aligned with competitive exam syllabi. Students can solve conceptual and numerical problems, attempt mock tests for assessment, and monitor their performance using statistics. The app supports self-study and systematic exam preparation. Topics Included 1. Nature of Light Wave nature, particle nature, dual nature of radiation, electromagnetic spectrum, speed of light, and intensity. 2. Reflection of Light Laws of reflection, plane and spherical mirrors, mirror formula, magnification, and ray diagrams. 3. Refraction of Light Snell’s law, refractive index, apparent depth, critical angle, total internal reflection, and refraction through glass slab. 4. Lenses and Optical Instruments Convex and concave lenses, lens formula, magnification, power of lens, and combination of lenses. 5. Wave Optics Huygens principle, interference, Young’s double slit experiment, diffraction, polarization, and coherent sources. 6. Optical Instruments Simple microscope, compound microscope, astronomical telescope, resolving power, angular magnification, and defects of vision. 7. Photometry and Optical Phenomena Luminous intensity, inverse square law, Brewster’s law, Malus law, dispersion, and scattering of light. 8. Modern Optics (JEE Advanced Focus) Photoelectric effect, Einstein photoelectric equation, de Broglie wavelength, Compton effect, optical fiber, and laser principle. Key Features Chapter-wise practice quizzes Mock tests for full syllabus assessment Daily quiz for regular revision Performance statistics to track accuracy NEET & JEE aligned optics syllabus Simple and distraction-free interface Physics Light Practice is suitable for students preparing for NEET and JEE who want structured practice in optics and modern physics topics related to light.
