U2 Physics

this lab is used to test the law of conservation of momentum for a real system. Students will use dynamic tracks and dynamic carts combined with CPO timers, them they will test the conservation of momentum using air tracks and gliders. Notice that when an extra mass is added to the second cart or glider, the first glider will bounce off in the opposite direction, the CPO timers can store both time readings, you can get the previous time reading by pressing the memory key.

Identify a metal by calculating its specific heat capacity using the law of conservation of energy and a calorimeter.

Students use the ripple tank to illustrate the doppler effect for mechanical waves. Students identify the changes in frequency and wavelength of the waves related to the relative positions and speed of a moving source, an observer in front of the source, and an observer behind the source. Students use the concept of doppler effect to explain how redshift is related to the expansion of space and the movement of galaxies from the point of view of Earth.

Work organizer to balance oxidation-reduction reactions using the half equation method.
