what’s new – The Lungs and Spirometry Parameters B-41

The Lungs and Spirometry Parameters B-41

Posted on June 17, 2013

How much air do we breathe? The normal amount of air that we breathe in and out when we are at rest is called tidal volume (TV). An average tidal volume is around half a liter. We can also inhale a very large amount of air and then exhale all the air we can, the volume of that exhaled air is called our vital capacity (VC) (typically 3.1-4.8 liters). We cannot exhale all the air from our lungs. There is approximately 1.2 liters of air that remains in our respiratory tracts; it is called the residual volume (RV). The total amount of air that we can hold (the vital capacity plus the residual volume) is the total lung capacity (TLC). Its volume is approximately 4.2-6 liters.In this activity we will measure the tidal volume (TV) and the vital capacity (VC) using a spirometer logger sensor. Download experiment

what’s new- Soil Moisture B-20

Soil Moisture B-20

Posted on July 3, 2013

Soil is composed of different particles; most of them originate from the degradation of rocks (mineral particles). Others come from plant or animal residues (organic particles). Soil can also contain living materials (bugs, roots etc.).The particles have small spaces between them called pores. When the pores are filled mostly with air, the soil is “dry”. When they are filled with water then the soil is “moist”.The NeuLog soil moisture sensor can be used to know when to irrigate becuase the plant does not have enough water. The sensor is called a tensiometer, which is used to measure the energy status (or potential) of soil water. The measurement is directly related to the ability of plants to extract water from the soil.In this activity we will monitor the moisture of soil in a pot containing a plant. Download experiment

what’s new – Static Electricity P-44

Static Electricity P-44

Posted on July 17, 2013

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. Charges build up on the object’s surface until they find a way to discharge. By rubbing certain materials against each other, negative charges can transfer from one object to the other. For example, when rubbing a balloon against a woolen fabric or your hair, the balloon becomes negatively charged and the hair/fabric becomes positively charged. In this experiment we will rub together different objects and measure their charge with a charge logger sensor. A Faraday cage will be used to protect the objects from external electric fields.

what’s new – Simple Pendulum P-46

Simple Pendulum P-46

Posted on August 1, 2013

A simple pendulum is a hypothetical apparatus consisting of a point mass hanged on a thread. The thread’s mass is negligible and it is free to vibrate without friction. The motion of the hanged mass is harmonic, it swings back and forth at a constant amplitude. This is true as long as the angle from the original position is small. The amplitude of a real life pendulum swing declines over time because it is subjected to friction. A pendulum’s period is the time it takes to the hanged mass to swing back and forth. The period of a simple pendulum depends on the length of the thread and the gravitational acceleration (g); not on the mass of the pendulum. A pendulum with a long thread has a greater period than one with a shorter thread. The period and the frequency (1/period) are independent of the initial angular position (for small swings). In this experiment, we will measure the angular position over time of a swinging hanged mass connected to a rotary motion sensor through a thread. Different lengths and different masses will be examined, and the expected period will be compared with the measured period. Download experiment
