Focusing on Light
In this activity, students explore the reflection of light by parabolic and semicircular mirrors. They begin by exploring reflection using a series of flat mirrors that are attached to one another to create a flexible mirror that can simulate a curved mirror. Students then explore reflection by a...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/focusing-on-light
Damped and Driven Harmonic Motion
Students explore the properties of waveforms representing damped and driven simple harmonic motion. First, they identify the functional form of the damping in a simple harmonic oscillator. Then, they discover the relationship between the driving frequency, the fundamental frequency, and the dampi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/damped-and-driven-harmonic-motion
Paper Chromatography
This activity introduces the process of paper chromatography and why scientists use it in crime scene investigations. A crime has been committed.

Electromagnetism
Students use an animated diagram of a magnetic field and a coil. Students rotate the coil and determine the number of magnetic field lines passing through the coil at a given angle. Students graph the relationship and then consider the rate of change of the magnetic field.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/electromagnetism
Energy of Free Oscillations
Students explore energy transformation and energy conservation in simulated spring-mass oscillations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/energy-of-free-oscillations
Entropy
In this activity, students will investigate entropy from the point of view of microstates, macrostates, and probability. The goal of the activity is to help students better understand the relationship between probability and entropy. Students will learn that, in the case of the second law of ther...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/entropy
First Law of Thermodynamics
In this activity, students explore the first law of thermodynamics and apply it to various thermodynamics processes in order to calculate heat, work, and changes in internal energy of a very simple system: an ideal gas enclosed in a container fitted with a movable piston.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/first-law-of-thermodynamics
