I DID register my project at the Physics section, but the problem was that the number of Physics related projects was very low (everyone doing stuff on upthrust force and flashy ordinary printed boards that explain ), and so they had a small section for it which doesn't even have a projector; So I was moved to the computer section. I couldn't just abandon the project I worked on for hours, so I thought I should give it a try at the computer section. And just to let you know, all what was there at the computer section was worth nothing at all; A ram, CPU, HDD, processor unit and a motherboard labeled. Some stolen flash games, and a CLI calculator the teacher did. There was also this robot a student "built" (nah its not what you're thinking, he just bought the robot and put his parts together according to the instructions written at it's manual =_=). Most of the projects fell within the Chemistry category (they were either about lighting a bulb with a lemon, or that potato cannon thingy which was actually cool but with nothing scientific about it). The first rank was to another repeated project from youtube; a piano that shoots fire accordingly with each note. The second was just a mixture of soap and a specific hydrocarbon which can be rubbed in your and, and it lights fire without hand damage making you look like a super hero.. The third rank went to the potato cannon. Well all they were looking for were flashy stuff which is looking good. Well you see the design of the simulators is pretty simple and it doesn't appeal to anyone (I personally loved these kind of retro graphics and the way data is proposed as raw, but people don't like them it seems).
And the prize.. wasn't really anything worth it. And well, I would've been smart if I left like normal and alright. But rather, mentally hurt like an idiot.. Good old days I guess? lool.
And about the picking waves type feature: I was really into doing that, but I didn't have enough time as I started working on everything just few days before the deadline. Also, all the stuff in there are just the fundamentals of waves which we were taking at that time. And I would agree its uselessness for doing some real simulation stuff, but it can be if used for teaching and explaining how stuff works.
Well yeah, you are right. Protons are supposed to be attracted toward the electrons to some extent as well. I might continue working on that in the future (and perhaps, allow Schrodinger's to be simulated as well). I really rushed the Atom simulator, so I didn't pay much attention to the scales and couldn't add all the feature I wanted.
And yes, I've always enjoyed physics and programming. Doing them both together is unimaginably fun for me!
Something I've really wanted to do (and I am definitely unquestionably going to do) is a tool which simulates shapes (this includes Pyraminds, Cuboids, Spheres...etc) of any n-dimension for you. Check it out, it is really interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercube
A model of a 4D Cube (Tesseract):

Offtopic: So I had this crazy idea from the fact that the 3DS uses 2 camera's to record 3D videos. The idea is: MAYBE, having a 3rd eye would've allowed us to see shapes in 4D (and so having a(n) x number of eyes can let us see things in x+1D).
