- Baník I.: Wavelength of Light in Water - Easy Measurement Using a CD, Fair 5, Praha 2000A short theoretical introduction to measurement of the wavelength of light using the reflection of light on an optical grating. A guide on how to measure the wavelength of light in water using the reflection on a CD.
- Dvořák L.: A Bit of Heuristics from Malá Hraštice, Fair 5, Praha 2000A few ideas from the assembly of students of the Department of Physics Education FMP CU. A guide on how to make a string phone with echoes, balance based on the Archimedes’ law, apparatus for measuring the Young’s modulus of jam, dumplings etc., amplifier constructed so that it picks up a magnet pendulum passing through its balance position. Everything is made of commonly available resources.
- Hubeňák J.: LEDs and Lasers, Fair 5, Praha 2000Measurement of electromotive force of diodes when being illuminated by an overhead projector and a laser, both with theoretical justification of results.
- Polák Z.: Measurement of Air Velocity, Fair 5, Praha 2000A simple measurement of the speed of air flowing from an air flow generator and, as a bonus, a description of some other experiments (balance wheel, the Cartesian diver, rocket…)
- Trna J.: Physics in your pocket, Fair 5, Praha 2000Thirty-five very simple experiments with coins from various parts of physics.
