Ohm's Law
In this activity, students will explore the relationship between current and potential difference for several resistors which obey Ohm's Law. They will experimentally measure the resistance of the resistors. Students will then examine the relationship between current and potential difference us...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ohms-law
Absorption and Radiation
Different surfaces absorb and radiate radiation at different rates. In this activity you will analyze the absorption and radiation rates of two surfaces by monitoring the temperature changes of each of them.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/absorption-and-radiation
Projectile Motion Simulation
Students can investigate the effects of changing various initial quantities on the motion of a projectile. The simulation allows for firing a projectile over or up onto a cliff or over level ground. The results are displayed both graphically and mathematically.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/projectile-motion-simulation
Science TODAY™ - Clearing the Bar
Students will explore the effects of two critical physical factors on potential success in the pole vault event in track and field.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/science-today--clearing-the-bar
Science TODAY™ - How the Olympic Swimsuit Gives Athletes an Edge
Students will look at the potential impact of an improvement in the equipment used by world-class swimmers. They will also look at the improvement in the world records for men and women in the 100 Meter Freestyle race.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/science-today--how-the-olympic-swimsuit-gives-athletes-an-edge
Galileo Galilei Time Line
A time line of the life of Galileo Galilei.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/galileo-galilei-time-line
Groucho's Sign Shop
Students' use force sensors to investigate forces and learn about force as a vector. Similar concept to the common "spring scale" force vector lab, but with a real-world twist.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/grouchos-sign-shop
Shape Up!
In this activity, students will use the motion detector to record motion, and observe how the direction of movement, speed of travel, and the rate of change of direction and speed affect the shape of a Distance-Time plot.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shape-up
Heat Transfer by Conduction
The purpose of this activity is to monitor the transfer of heat between 2 materials by measuring the temperature changes in them.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heat-transfer-by-conduction
Linearity and Density
Students will perform an activity to determine the density of a metal from a graph of mass versus volumehttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linearity-and-density
Linearity with an investigation of Hooke's Law
Students will perform an activity which allows them to discover Hooke's Law for springs and determine the spring constant of a springhttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linearity-with-an-investigation-of-hookes-law
I Am Your Density
Students will model data using a linear equation, interpret the slope and intercept values from a linear model, and identify a characteristic property of a substance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/i-am-your-density
Coming to know F and C
Students will collect room temperatures with temperature probes and graphing calculators, and plot data to generalize rule that relates Fahrenheit and Celsius units.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/coming-to-know-f-and-c
Force on a Spring
The Learning Check file assesses student understanding of Hooke's Law.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/force-on-a-spring
Motion Pretest
Students will assess their prior knowledge about motion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motion-pretest
Discovering Ohm's Law
In this activity students use Vernier Voltage and Current Probes to investigate Ohm's Law. The students collect data and use their graphing calculators to perform data analysis and "discover" Ohm's Law.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discovering-ohms-law
Solar Cookers and Easy Data
Students use a TI-84, Easy Temp and Easy Data to measure the quality of their solar cookers. Hot dogs are heated under the May sunshine after students design, build and test their own solar cookers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/solar-cookers-and-easy-data
Electron Vocabulary
This StudyCards(tm) stack enables students to review the vocabulary used in studying electron behavior.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/electron-vocabulary
Vernier - Bungee Jump Accelerations
Students use an Accelerometer to analyze the motion of a bungee jumper and determine a point where there is maximum and minimum acceleration in the course of the motion. They also compare the experimental data with an actual bungee jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--bungee-jump-accelerations
