Smart carts combine motion, force and acceleration sensors. They make excellent tools for investigating much more than just motion. This session will explore smart cart experiments. Participants should bring a device so they can try the experiments out for themselves.
A cheap toy is used to investigate energy transfers and look at velocity time and displacement time graphs using Tracker to analyse a video of the toy jumping.
Why is it that practical physics can often cause technicians to panic? This practical based session will look at the Physics elements of the SSERC Local Authority Resources from a technician’s perspective. We will look at the Thermal Imaging Camera, Vernier SpectroVis Plus and fibre optic probe, Vernier LabQuest 2 with various sensors and Cloud Chamber whilst discussing options for support (given the opening question) within physics.
This session will introduce a host of activities, covering each of the Physics areas of the BGE Science curriculum. Each practical activity will address second or third level content using typical lab equipment or everyday items.
