Snatoms

 Using @snatoms to made models of the molecules we are using. Very fast to make and so easy to change into different versions of the homologous series. #iteachchemistry #Science #STEM

Rates of reaction

 Looking a the reactive rates of propionic and ethanoic acids with a twirl of magnesium ribbon. The ethanoic acid was very much faster.

New Oscilloscope

 Trying out my new oscilloscope before I do any experiments with the students, so I am confident in its use and what the buttons do and there are lots on this one #iteachphysics

Measuring the resistance of a length of Wire

 Getting ready to do the resistance is proportional to the length of wire practical. Using a rheostat to visualise the system in a smaller space. Using the Locktronics by @matrixtsl to simplify and explain the circuit

Creating a powered pendulum

 Creating a powered pendulum to look at resonance. We collected the data using a motion sensor and displayed in @pascoscientific Capstone. This gave numbers to the effect observed. #iteachphysics #Science #STEM

Maths Day.

Sorting out the Binomial expansion, and binomial probability. Its amazing what two weeks holiday, and Christmas can do to students brains. First Maths in 2 weeks.

 

Fluctuating Gravity Field?

 Using @pascoscientific Sparkvue and track and a Smartcart to work out a value of acceleration due to gravity. In my lab there seems to be a fluctuating gravity well, which seems to constantly change the value of g. #iteachphysics #Science
