Mechanics

Graph Match - Use an Ultrasonic Motion Detector to practice interpreting position vs time and velocity vs time graphs.

Free Fall Acceleration - Use an Ultrasonic Motion Detector to measure position vs time of a basketball.

Motion Graphs -  Use an Ultrasonic Motion Detector to view Position vs Time, Velocity vs Time,and  Acceleration vs Time graphs.

Gravitational Field Strength - Use a Dual Range Force probe and determine the relationship between Force Gravity and Mass.

Force Table - Use up to 4 Dual Range Force probes

Newton's 2^nd Law - Use a single photogate and picket fence to determine the acceleration rate of your system.

Newton's 3^rd Law - Use 2 Dual Range Force probes to push and pull.

Conservation of Momentum - Use 2 photogates to determine the velocity of gliders that collide or explode apart.  Determine what kind of collisions and explosions Conserve Momentum and/or Conserve Kinetic Energy. 

Acceleration - Use 2 photogates to determine the acceleration of a glider.

Heat, Kinetic Theory & Thermodynamics

Melting Ice - Use a Digital Thermometer to watch temperature as some ice melts.  It doesn't get any more exciting than heating some H₂O!

Pressure vs. Temperature - Use a Digital Thermometer and Pressure Sensor to find the relationship between Temperature and Pressure of a gas.  What would Lord Kelvin (1824-1907) conclude?

Boyle's Law - Use a Pressure Sensor to find the relationship between Pressure and Volume of a gas.  In an ideal world, we would have Robert Boyle (1627- 1691) here to help us interpret our results.
