A Field Guide to Curiosity · Volume I

The
Simulations.

A small cabinet of interactive studies, built to make abstract ideas tangible. Each one isolates a single concept, hands you the controls, and lets curiosity do the rest. Drag a slider, fire a cannon, pour some liquid, flip a thousand coins.

N° 01 Physics Newton's Cannon simulation: Earth with a cannonball trajectory

Newton's Cannon

A thought experiment, brought to life. Adjust the launch velocity and watch the ball fall, orbit, or escape Earth's gravity entirely — the very idea that put satellites in the sky.

N° 02 Physics A dog on a weighing scale with grass and sun

Weight vs Mass

Place the same object on different planets. The scale jumps wildly while mass holds steady — a quiet demonstration that one is a property of the object, the other a conversation with gravity.

N° 03 Mathematics Three beakers showing liquid measurements

The Percentage Paradox

If you go up by 50% and then down by 50%, do you land where you started? Pour liquid between beakers and discover why the answer is not the one your gut insists upon.

N° 04 Mathematics Coin flip lab with options for 10 through 1000 flips

The Coin Flip Lab

Flip ten coins. Then a hundred. Then a thousand. Watch the results drift toward — but rarely land exactly on — the expected 50/50. Probability, made patient and visible.

N° 05 Mathematics Grid showing a comb-shape with area 15 and perimeter 32

Area & Perimeter

Two shapes can share the same area while having wildly different perimeters — and the reverse. Draw on a grid, see the relationship laid bare, then experiment freely in the sandbox.

N° 06 Language Prompt asking whether to use A or An before FBI agent

A or An?

The first letter can deceive you — but the first sound is what truly decides. Practice picking the right article and see why "an honest answer" and "a one-time deal" both make perfect sense.

N° 07 Language Sentence with a blank between chocolates and on, asking is or are

Subject–Verb Agreement

Pick the verb that fits, then watch where it actually connects. A visual way to untangle real subjects from the prepositional phrases hiding between them and the verb.

N° 08 Geography Stylized map of India with Rajasthan highlighted in amber

India, Explored

An interactive atlas of India. Click any state to reveal its capital, climate, crops and the small facts that make a place itself. Scroll to zoom — the country rewards close looking.

N° 09 Computer Science Caesar cipher tool encoding a message with a shift of three

The Caesar Cipher

Encode messages with one of history's oldest ciphers. Then crack them open using letter frequency — the same technique cryptanalysts have leaned on for two thousand years.

N° 10 Computer Science Side by side comparison of a landscape and a heavily pixelated version

Resolution & Color Depth

Two sliders, two very different kinds of quality loss. Watch pixels merge into blocks and smooth gradients collapse into bands as you push an image down toward its bare-minimum bones.
