An Introductory Physics Web Site

Hi Everyone,
I was just cruising around the internet, looking for Astronomy Related sites when I ran across this one in particular,http://www.colorado.edu/physics/2000/index.pl
I am now planning to use this site to help my oldest Grandson get a better grasp on basic Physics and Principles.

I have been trying to teach my grandson the Basics of Observational Astronomy, and he seems to be getting better and better.
His knowledge of our night sky has tripled since he first started a few years ago.

It seems to me that he is now ready for some Basic Physics, so that he can appreciate what he sees through our Equipment and our monthly observing runs together, I hope that his interest keeps growing, and with a bit of luck and a lot of help from gramps, by the time he finishes High School, I may just have started him into a Career in Astronomy, that way I can then pick his brains! lol,

If anyone has any found any other basic introductory Astronomical Physics related sites, please post the links so that I may pass them off to him. I have also got him studying this site, http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr162/lect/index.html

Dennis
