Vernier - Boyle's law
The primary objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a confined gas. The gas we use will be air, and it will be confined in a syringe connected to a Pressure Sensor (see Figure 1). When the volume of the syringe is changed by moving the pist...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--boyles-law
Can You Take The Pressure?
Students will use the Vernier EasyLink© and the Gas Pressure Sensor to determine the volume of a gas in a container under different pressures. They will also graph the pressure/volume data and interpret their graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-you-take-the-pressure
Exponential Growth
Students will find an approximation for the value of the mathematical constant e and to apply it to exponential growth and decay problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exponential-growth

NASA - Space Shuttle Ascent: Mass vs. Time
In this activity, students explore the ascent phase which begins at liftoff and ends when the space shuttle reaches Earth's orbit. The space shuttle must accelerate from zero to approximately 7,850 meters per second (which is approximately 17,500 miles per hour) in eight and a half minutes to re...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-ascent-mass-vs--time
Forensics Case 6 - Measuring Momentum: Using distance moved after impact to estimate velocity
This activity introduces the concept of momentum as it applies to vehicle collisions. Students accurately gather data of collision of a vehicle with a stationary object, and establish a relationship between the distance an object moves after a collision with a vehicle and the momentum of the vehi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-6--measuring-momentum-using-distance-moved-after-impact-to-estimate-velocity
Forensics Case 12 - Hit and Run: Using information from an event data recorder to reconstruct an ac
Students learn how distance traveled, velocity, and acceleration are related to one another and how the appearance of an acceleration, velocity, or distance vs. time graph can be used to predict the appearance of the other graphs. They show how accident scenes can be recreated through an analysis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-12--hit-and-run-using-information-from-an-event-data-recorder-to-reconstruct-an-ac
