We support the Solving Physics Problems project nicknamed Výfuk with a contribution of CZK 500,000. This correspondence-based competition is designed for lower secondary school pupils and multi-year grammar school students and operates under the auspices of the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University. This year, we are proud to be the competition’s main partner.

Solving Physics Problems, Výfuk, is a correspondence competition that introduces physics to young people in a fun and accessible way. Its goal is to show that physics isn’t just about memorizing formulas – it’s about truly understanding the laws of nature, and above all, discovering that physics is a fascinating science.

The competition consists of six rounds of tasks that participants solve independently throughout the school year and then submit. Each solution is reviewed individually and accompanied by feedback. The rounds also include experimental problems and educational texts that explore interesting topics in physics and mathematics.

Výfuk promotes not only academic skills but also helps build a community of enthusiastic young minds. Top participants are invited to a summer camp and other gatherings, where they can deepen their knowledge and meet peers who share a passion for science.
