The objective of this study was to systematize experiments in physics based on learning objects. This is a qualitative essay, of a bibliographic nature, based on the assumptions of the systematic literature review. From this methodological reference it was possible to verify that the virtual resources available today have rich potential to support experimentation in Physics. Through experimentation in Physics based on learning objects, it is possible to develop relevant demonstrative, provatory or investigative proposals. Such proposals can contribute so much to the use in presential, hybrid or online teaching and learning contexts. Likewise, it is possible to explore these resources both in the context of Basic Education, and in Higher Education, either for teaching or for research. It is necessary to consider how the exploration of virtual experiments must be very well accompanied and problematized so that the visualization of the simulation is not perceived by the subjects as a reproduction of the phenomenon as presented in nature. Thus, experimentation supported by learning objects opens multiple possibilities for the pedagogical work in Physics; for the creation of more and better pedagogical practices and, consequently, for new ways of teaching and learning in the contemporary world.
