An International Physics League
An international physics League organized by high school students in Egypt, combining Egyptian adventure narrative with physics education. Participants solve story-driven physics puzzles in teams of three to collect ancient fragments.
Pharaohs' Fragments is a unique international physics League that blends ancient Egyptian mythology with modern physics challenges. Teams of high school students from around the world will embark on a virtual journey through Egypt, solving physics puzzles to collect the ancient fragments and unlock their power.
Collect six ancient Egyptian fragments by solving physics challenges to unlock their mysterious power.
Embark on a virtual journey through ancient Egypt, solving puzzles in iconic locations.
Compete with students from around the world in this unique physics challenge.
Pharaohs' Fragments is an innovative international physics League created and organized by high school students in Egypt. Our mission is to make physics education engaging and accessible by combining it with the rich narrative of ancient Egyptian adventure.
Participants form teams of up to three and work together to solve story-driven physics puzzles that are integrated into an immersive Egyptian mythology narrative. As teams progress through the League, they collect six ancient fragments - powerful artifacts said to hold the key to understanding the universe's fundamental forces.
This competition is designed to challenge students' understanding of physics concepts while fostering teamwork, problem-solving skills, and cultural appreciation. By blending education with entertainment, we aim to inspire the next generation of physicists and engineers.
The competition is divided into two main phases:
All competition questions and challenges will be released during the competition timeline as teams progress through the adventure.
We are a group of passionate high school students from Egypt who share a love for physics and our country's rich history. Our team came together with the vision of creating a unique educational experience that would inspire students worldwide to explore the wonders of physics.
Our organizing committee includes students specializing in physics, mathematics, computer science, and history, allowing us to create a truly interdisciplinary competition that bridges ancient wisdom with modern scientific knowledge.
We believe that learning should be an adventure, and through Pharaohs' Fragments, we aim to transform physics education into an exciting journey through time and space.
Registration Period: Teams of 1-3 participants can register for the competition.
Phase 1: 30 problems (3 hours)
Round 2: 40 problems (3 hours).
The competition covers six major physics domains, each represented by an ancient Egyptian artifact in our adventure narrative:
Solve problems related to motion, forces, energy, and momentum to unlock the secrets of the Seal of Akhenaten.
Master light, reflection, refraction, and lenses to decipher the mysteries of the Eye of Horus.
Explore quantum mechanics, relativity, and nuclear physics to claim Anubis' Jewel.
Understand heat, energy transfer, and entropy to balance Ma'at's Crystal.
Navigate sound, light waves, and interference to aim Khufu's Arrow true.
Harness electric and magnetic fields to power Ra's Stone.
Pharaohs' Fragments is designed for:
High schoolers.
Teams of 1-3 participants working together to solve challenges.
Students from around the world are welcome to join the competition.
The competition is completely free to ensure equal opportunity for all students.
This diverse participation will create a vibrant international community of young physicists exploring the intersection of science and ancient Egyptian culture.
All competition questions and challenges will be released during the competition timeline as teams progress through the Egyptian adventure narrative.
The questions are designed to test your understanding of physics concepts while immersing you in the story of the Pharaohs' Fragments. Each round will feature problems related to the specific physics domains and Egyptian artifacts you encounter on your journey.
Registration for Pharaohs' Fragments is open from December 2 to January 25. Form your team of 1-3 participants and register using the form below.
We are finalizing an exciting prize package for our winners. Stay tuned for announcements!
