Forensics Case 14—Hot Air, Cold Body: Using Newton's Law of Cooling to Determine Time of Death
Students create a temperature versus time graph for cooling and become familiar with Newton's Law of Cooling. They use the cooling-rate equation to estimate time of death of the victim.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-14hot-air-cold-body-using-newtons-law-of-cooling-to-determine-time-of-death
Who Started It All? The Spread Of Disease
Students predict the spread of disease to be exponential. They then do a hands on "sharing of bodily fluids" and see the actual data and compare these results to the projected model. You actually see the number of infected after each sharing to see the shift of the model easier. Written to be c...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-started-it-all--the-spread-of-disease
DC Circuit Analysis
Shows three examples of the use of nodal analysis to solve linear circuits. The first two examples use the solve() command to solve a set of linear equations for circuit. The third example shows how to write the equations in matrix form and use simult() to solve them.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/dc-circuit-analysis
Fourier Series
Shows how to compute and graph the complex Fourier Series coefficients for a square wave.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fourier-series
Who's in the House
Students construct a model of a house, drawing pictures of the people and pets in the house. Students use skip counting strategies to find possible combinations of people and pets that live in their classmates houses with the help of pictures and TI-10.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whos-in-the-house
Manipulating Lab Data: The Diode
Introduces the Shockley diode equation, which gives the voltage-current characteristics of a diode. The equation is plotted and compared to actual diode data taken in a laboratory. The method of importing data to the TI-89 is shown, followed by instructions on how to manipulate the data to prep...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/manipulating-lab-data--the-diode
Volumes of Rectangular Prisms
This lesson will introduce students to many of the algebraic graphing features of the TI-89 calculator, especially the Maximum command. This will be accomplished by solving volumes of right rectangular prisms. (Algebra / geometry activity)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/volumes-of-rectangular-prisms
