Titre : The Resting Breathing Rate of the Dinosaur Plateosaurus trossingensis via Conservation of Energy Type de document : Article Auteurs : Scott Lee ; Justyna Slowiak-Morkovina Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : p. 166-169 Note générale : doi: https://doi.org/10.1119/5.0077948 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Conservation of energy is one of the foundations of science, and in this paper, we use this principle to estimate the resting breathing rate of the dinosaur Plateosaurus trossingensis (see Fig. 1). Animals produce the energy necessary for life via chemical reactions in which biomolecules (such as glucose) react with oxygen to release CO2, H2O, and energy. The metabolism is determined from the animal’s reported mass growth curve (the mass of the animal as a function of age during its juvenile growth) using a model based on conservation of energy. The metabolism reveals the rate at which oxygen is used by the animal. The efficiency of oxygen extraction is assumed to be the same as observed in modern birds (which have a very efficient “one-way” breathing modality and are direct descendants of dinosaurs). Using the estimated concentration of oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere during the Late Triassic period yields the amount of air that P. trossingensis breathed each minute. Finally, the tidal volume (the volume of air inhaled in each breath) was used to calculate its resting breathing rate. This exercise has been used in introductory and intermediate courses on thermal physics, and the students find it empowering (and fun) to be able to gain this insight into the physiology of a dinosaur.

In the usual classroom setting, most students do not have the opportunity to experimentally discover the interdependence of variables described by this law. Recently, digital technologies have become more prevalent at all levels of education. Teachers and researchers are successfully using computer-based simulations to improve physics education. Augmented reality is one of the emerging digital technologies that have the potential to improve students’ understanding of a wide range of educational topics. Nevertheless, it is advisable that students and teachers are familiar with the most efficient use of selected digital tools before using augmented reality-enriched physics lectures. In this paper, we present our augmented reality simulation called CoulombsLawAR, which could be useful for teaching Coulomb’s law.

Mungan Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : p. 178-181 Note générale : doi : https://doi.org/10.1119/5.0042450 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Point contacts, Newtonian mechanics, Rotational dynamics, Free-body diagrams, Education Résumé : A simple model for the kinetic frictional force on an object sliding across a surface is adopted in introductory physics. Its magnitude is given by a constant coefficient of kinetic friction multiplied by the normal force exerted on the object by the surface, and the force points opposite the direction that the object slides relative to the surface. In contrast, the standard model for the static frictional force is more complicated. There is no formula for its magnitude, but instead it can vary from zero up to some maximum value, as required to keep the point of contact of the object at rest relative to the surface it is on. Furthermore, it points in the direction opposite the way in which the object would slip at its point of contact if there were zero friction, but it is not always obvious which way that is. In an attempt to bypass these complications, students can make erroneous assumptions about the magnitude and direction of the static frictional force. To counter them, it is helpful to present some example that shows students that those assumptions need not hold. Such a system is a pulled spool that rolls without slipping on a horizontal table. Since the point of contact between the spool and the table does not slip, any frictional force between them must be static.

The dynamics of orbital decay are derived considering atmospheric drag as the only dissipative mechanism and using an educational approach suitable for undergraduate calculus-based physics and engineering courses. The resulting nonlinear first-order differential equation for the altitude as a function of time is solved numerically for the isothermal-barotropic atmospheric model with a fixed scale height. The model is validated using the uncontrolled reentry data of the Chinese space station Tiangong-1.

Titre : Robust Triboelectric Charging of Identical Balloons of Different Radii Type de document : Article Auteurs : Francisco Vera, Auteur ; Rodrigo Rivera, Auteur ; Manuel Ortiz, Auteur ; Francisco Antonio Horta-Rangel, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.246-247 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Electricite ; Electrostatique ; Expérience scientifiqueRésumé : Electrification by rubbing different materials is a well-known phenomenon with a history that began more than five centuries B.C. ago. However, simple experiments can lead to contradictory or inconsistent results, and the history of this phenomena is plagued with non-intuitive results. For example, triboelectric charging by rubbing identical materials is possible. In this work we want to highlight some historical aspects of triboelectricity that could enrich the discussion of electrostatics in an undergraduate physics course. We will focus on the effect of strain on the triboelectric properties of a sample, which we think is not well known to physics teachers. We will show that it is possible to obtain robust polarities by rubbing identical rubber balloons of different radii and we will also show that this charging method can be very useful in introductory physics courses.

Titre : Sterile Neutrinos: Are They Real? Type de document : Article Auteurs : B. Eberly, Auteur ; D. Lincoln, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.256-257 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Observation ; Particule élémentaireRésumé : Neutrinos are perhaps the least understood of the known denizens of the subatomic world. They have nearly no mass, interact only via the weak nuclear force and gravity, and, perhaps most surprising, the three known species of neutrinos can transform from one variant into another. This transformation, called neutrino oscillation, has been demonstrated only relatively recently and has led to speculation that there might be another, even more mysterious, neutrino variant, called the sterile neutrino. While the sterile neutrino remains a hypothetical particle, it is an interesting one and searches for it are a key research focus of the world’s neutrino scientist community.

Titre : Co-deriving the Formulas for Centripetal Acceleration and Mass-Spring Period Type de document : Article Auteurs : Mark Eichenlaub, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.258-259 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
AccélérationMots-clés : accélération centripède Résumé : There is a close connection between simple harmonic motion and uniform circular motion. This connection is widely taught and included in standard textbooks. Here, we exploit this connection to simultaneously derive two results from introductory mechanics: the period of a mass- spring system and the centripetal acceleration formula.Previously published derivations of the centripetal acceleration formula often rely on calculus, either via explicit computation or arguing geometrically about limits. One approach relies entirely on the kinematics of vectors, without invoking limits. Our approach likewise does not use limits, but is rooted in dynamics.

Enseignement ; Étudiants ; Physique ; Sociologie de l'étudiantRésumé : In this paper, we describe the work of a teacher (Sarah) as she attempted to use culturally relevant pedagogy in her physics classroom. Culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) is an approach to teaching developed by Gloria Ladson-Billings, with the goal of encouraging learning through drawing on students’ cultural capital as a centerpiece of their instruction. CRP meets the academic and cultural needs of diverse students through recognizing and building upon their cultural backgrounds, experiences, and interests in instruction. We describe how our experience working with Sarah broadened and honed our original understanding of CRP as we documented Sarah’s instructional successes, as well as the challenges, she encountered in her physics teaching. Based on our work with Sarah, we provide recommendations to inform other physics teachers as they attempt to employ CRP.

Enseignement ; Logiciel ; PhysiqueRésumé : The importance of introducing computational approaches early and actively in science education is widely acknowledged among educators and scientists. Many great ideas have been put forward and implemented by advocates and organizations such as Partnership for Integration of Computation into Undergraduate Physics (https://www.compadre.org/PICUP) and the Science Education Resource Center at Carleton College (https://serc.carleton.edu/teaching_computation/index.html). According to “Phys21: Preparing Physics Students for 21st-Century Careers,” a recent report by the Joint Task Force on Undergraduate Physics Programs, physics students benefit from learning how to represent physics concepts in multiple ways: mathematically, experimentally, and computationally. In his best-selling book on career advice, Cal Newport argues that quickly and effectively learning how to wield difficult tools is a valuable skill for success.

Titre : Video Analysis of an Oscillating Cantilever for Introductory Laboratories Type de document : Article Auteurs : Blane Baker, Auteur ; Maggie Sherer, Auteur ; Ben Mossinghoff, Auteur ; Will Laycock, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.270-272 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Élasticité ; Oscillation ; VidéoRésumé : A wood cantilever of length ∼2.5 m is driven into resonance using the hand as a simple driver. Video recordings of these oscillations are analyzed to determine experimental second harmonic (n = 2) damped resonance frequencies. These frequencies are compared to theoretical ones, obtained from measurements of elastic moduli, damping properties, and physical dimensions of the cantilever. Experimental frequencies agree with theoretical ones to within their respective uncertainties. Experiments described here can be incorporated seamlessly into introductory college physics laboratories, following discussions of simple harmonic oscillators (including damping). These kinds of experiments are useful for developing students’ skills in designing and troubleshooting experiments, analyzing video recordings, and modeling data using computers. The ease of set up and simple apparatus also make these activities ideal for remote learning such as during the recent COVID-19 pandemic.

Baromètre ; GSM ; Instrument de mesure ; Pression ; ThermodynamiqueRésumé : As smartphones have become a part of our everyday life, their sensors have successfully been used to allow data acquisition with these readily available devices in a variety of different smartphone-based school experiments. Such experiments most commonly take advantage of the accelerometer and gyroscope. A less frequently used sensor in smartphone-based experiments is the pressure sensor or barometer. Pressure sensors in smartphones can improve indoor navigation, for example in multi-story shopping malls. In a popular smartphone experiment, the barometer is used to determine the current altitude in an elevator with the barometric height formula. Along with accelerometer data and by deriving the height data to calculate the velocity, z(t), v(t), and a(t) plots can be generated and shown to students in real time.

Titre : Effectively Illustrating Nature’s Magic with Magic Type de document : Article Auteurs : F. D. Becchetti, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.276-281 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Didactique des sciences ; Enseignement des sciences ; MagieRésumé : There is an ongoing challenge with STEM education: making physics, math, and science, in general, interesting, understandable, and retentive for college science and non-science majors, K-12 students, and the public. If not imparting detailed knowledge, at least one would like to introduce important concepts that will be remembered, appreciated, and hopefully would be pursued in more detail by audience members. One solution: as noted by Socrates, “Wisdom begins in wonder.” Indeed, magic as a form of wonderment dates back to Socrates and even earlier. One of the first magic books, The Discoverie of Witchcraft by Reginald Scot, was published in 1584, predating publication of many science texts. In this paper the author, based on recent research, advocates using special forms of magic to both amaze and teach, and in particular to illustrate the wonders of modern physics, i.e., Nature’s magic, but with connections also to classical physics.

Ephéméride ; Lumière du soleil ; PropriétéRésumé : The camera obscura is a well-known optical device in the form of a closed box with a hole in one of its walls through which light rays pass, forming an inverted image of the external objects on the opposite wall, as can be seen in Fig. 1(a). Despite the simplicity of its basic design, they have been widely used by scientists and artists. In particular, dark cameras have been used throughout history to measure Earth-Sun distance. To do this, ancient scientists used cameras of enormous dimensions to accurately measure the variations in the apparent diameter of the Sun that depend on the Earth-Sun distance. This is because the farther the light travels inside the camera, the larger the projected image will be [Fig. 1(b)]. In this work, the construction of a compact dark camera for educational purposes is presented so that, having reduced dimensions, it allows the images to be very large.

Titre : An Arduino Investigation of the Temperature Dependence of the Speed of Sound in Air Type de document : Article Auteurs : Calin Galeriu, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.284-288 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Circuit électronique ; Electronique ; Programmation ; Vitesse du sonRésumé : The determination of the speed of sound in air is a classical experiment, usually performed with a resonance tube apparatus. The measured value can be checked against Eq. (1), which describes the temperature dependence of the speed of sound in dry air. A modern implementation of this speed of sound investigation uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller board, an HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor, and a DS18B20 temperature sensor. The distance sensor’s transmitter produces a burst of eight ultrasonic rectangular pulses that travel through the air, reflect on an object placed in front at a distance d, and then return to the sensor’s receiver after an echo time t. This Arduino investigation, unfortunately, is harder to perform than one might expect after a first reading of Ref. 1 or 2. In this article we discuss some sources of experimental errors that can complicate this laboratory activity, and we describe some important steps that must be included in the data collection and analysis procedure, in order to obtain successful results every time.

Titre : STEM Education of Kinematics and Dynamics Using Arduino Type de document : Article Auteurs : A Coban, Auteur ; M. Erol, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.289-291 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Cinématique ; Dynamique ; Enseignement des sciences ; ProgrammationRésumé : Ever increasing technological progress opens novel opportunities concerning educational activities, and the ability to use the technology effectively is one of the 21st century’s most demanding skills. The Partnership Forum for 21st-Century Skills (P21) states that no organization can achieve satisfying results without using technology and therefore the use of technology particularly in schools should be at the highest level. Some novel teaching methods have recently emerged based on technological developments, such as STEM education, which is based on the integration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. In this study, the motion of a body connected to a pulley system is analyzed by using an Arduino microprocessor and also related mathematical equations. Arduino is a programming platform on which various electronic elements can be connected. There are various Arduino compatible sensors (sound, light, distance, temperature, etc.) that can be coded for their intended use. Due to its cost effectiveness, this technological instrument can be used as a measurement tool in many physics experiments. In this work, the time-varying data of the position of the moving object is determined using the HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor (see Fig. 1). The HC-SR04 distance sensor can determine the distance of the obstacle from the sensor when the transmitted signal is reflected from an obstacle and returned to the sensor, and the Arduino IDE computer program is used to load the corresponding codes into the Arduino and to retrieve the incoming data.

Analyse de données ; Collecte de données ; Enseignement des sciences ; Travaux pratiquesRésumé : Instructional videos are commonly used in both remote and in-campus curriculum. In order to investigate students’ experience when learning with online instructional videos, we adapted a method called “UX curve” from the user experience studies in industrial design. In this paper, we introduce the procedure and data processing method of using the UX curve method. We applied the UX curve method in a high school physics class while the students were watching an instructional video of kinematics. The results suggested that the UX curve method is practical, convenient, and effective in collecting students’ real-time experience.

Titre : Millikan Again Type de document : Article Auteurs : William M. Wehrbein, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : p.299-302 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Enseignement des sciences ; Étudiants ; Expérience scientifique ; VidéoRésumé : Recognized as one of the most beautiful experiments of all time, the oil drop experiment performed by Robert Millikan and his graduate students (primarily Harvey Fletcher) is a standard in the repertoire of experiments performed by undergraduate physics students. However, “as a teaching lab it does not enjoy a good reputation for three reasons: eyestrain, tedium, and poor, unconvincing results.” Several have attempted to make this experiment more student-friendly by improving the optics and replacing the stopwatch with a computer, replacing the eye with a video camera, and utilizing video analysis tools. Currently available versions of the oil drop apparatus for high school and college students have incorporated a number of these features. On the other hand, others are ready to replace the experiment with interactive computer-based simulations. There is another alternative: Have students analyze pre-recorded videos of the Millikan experiment. Besides the “Millikan Movies” produced at the California State University at Chico, the collection “Physics: CINEMA CLASSICS” (“PCC”) contains the essential nuggets from a Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) educational film made in 1959 sufficient to compute the elementary electric charge.
