Forensics Case 5 - The Ink Is Still Wet: Using colorimetry to identify an unknown ink
In this activity, students identify the ink of a ransom note to match suspects. They identify an unknown ink by its light absorbance characteristics. The experiment set up used is to measure a solutions absorbance of different colors (wavelengths) of light.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-5--the-ink-is-still-wet-using-colorimetry-to-identify-an-unknown-ink
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
Exploring the Area Under a Curve
Students explore Riemann sums to find the approximate area under the graph of a parabola on the interval [0, 1].https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-area-under-a-curve
Ratios of Similar Figures
Students will explore the ratio of perimeter, area, surface area, and volume of similar figures in two-dimensional figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ratios-of-similar-figures
To Infinity and Beyond!
Students' develop an understanding of what it means to take a limit at infinity. They learn to estimate limits from graphs and tables of values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/to-infinity-and-beyond
