Here is a simple oscilloscope sim I made. I thought this might be handy as it is stripped down to essentials and includes the option to turn off the time base in AC or DC mode, which comes up in A-Level questions 🙂

I'm building a library of presets for the new #Wavicle app. This one demonstrates the metal grill in the door of a microwave oven blocking microwaves from escaping (long) while allowing light waves through (short).

When you sit down to figure out the specifics of a Lab Practical Exam for this year and discover that you already did it several years ago!

Physics teacher here.
This is mostly true!!
(accelerate = change speed or direction)

Cruise Control on a long straight road tho...

#ITeachPhysics Day 83
AP had a lab quiz about their coffee filter lab, mostly application questions based on the model they chose.
Physics had circular motion notes based on their labs the last few days to pull it all together. The lecture felt off balance, have to fix that. 🧪🎢

#ITeachPhysics Day 82
Even numbered AP completed the coffee filter lab. Still run into the same issues of other things around getting picked up. I forgot that 50% skipped the pre req physics and hadn't learned how to use motion detectors which slowed us down. 🧪🎢

Another demo was freezing mercury into a hammer mold, then pounding a nail with it. Those days are gone, too many accidents in classrooms. It settles into crevices, evaporating into the air. If touched the skin absorbs it. There is no safe level. Showing cool pictures is OK! #ITeachPhysics

Day 73 Physical Sci - definitely a punt day, short class, lots of students missing. Put on a PBS show about energy and had them do a color by number for KE and PE #iteachphysics #teach180

Day 73 Physics - A short day since we spent half the day over at one of our elementary schools doing a winter community event. Great to see how much the littles look up to the HS Ss. Used our short class to finish the molds. #iteachphysics #teach180

One of the last things we do in my Physics 1 class is this challenge. They have to find the ratio of distances so the ring and disk hit the end of the track at the same time. This crew did a good job. #ITeachPhysics

Edge diffraction to single-slit diffraction in a closing door next to my office. I'm greeted by this happy natural phenomenon every day and finally decided to film it.

#iTeachPhysics what's your success rate at getting students to correctly use vector notation? Grading work and the amount of (vector) = (number) statements and their equivalents is rough.

Day 71-72 Physics - ending our unit in forces and torque with casting a 1 yard concrete beam and developing it into a bridge that can support as much load as possible. Worked today on making molds, first time for most students using any type of power saw and drill #iteachphysics #teach180

Day 71-72 Physical Sci - always a bummer to miss the first days of a unit but always making a pivot. Focused on defining types of energy, LOL diagrams, and calculating KE and PEg #iteachphysics #teach180 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

✨Science teachers✨

What is one piece of science equipment that is expensive, but you think it's worth the price?

E.g. Rubens' tube, cloud chamber etc.

Can’t wait to try out Michael Freeman’s circular motion escape room as review with 9th grade AP1’s tomorrow @afreeparticle.com #iteachphysics

Just to add to this, I'm OK if the answer is, "You can't do that with GA," - that'd be helpful so I don't spend more time trying to figure it out. 😁

(It just seems so *possible*, like I'm just using the wrong setting w/ the photogates or something...)
