ThermoElectric Generator for Introductory Chemistry Course (10th Grade)
Students will understand how heat energy can flow from hot to cold while transforming from one form to another.
Discovering Particles via Smashing
This interactive lab is an exercise in applying students’ knowledge of Conservation of Momentum and Energy to current dark matter research techniques. It’s a good review activity for Momentum and Energy, and it also bridges nicely into Atomic Physics.
Lesson Plan
Low cost materials
Designing Modifications to Enhance the Rate of Cooling
Students will design a method to promote heat loss from an aluminum can full of hot water and test modifications to their design. Modelled on removing excess heat from electronic components, the lab tests different methods of removing heat and meets the NGSS engineering standards.
