The home of the Virtual Physics Laboratory which offers ideal resources for when laboratory time or expertise is limited. All these resources can be used by the teacher or by students with or without supervision. I started researching and creating these resources many years ago. I usually create the experiment in reality before creating a simulated version. I have taught at Universities, FE/HE colleges, and at secondary schools and have ran Virtual Science for over 30 years.

Boyle's Law 3D Interactive Simulation

(0)
This is a teacher or student controlled, realistic 3d simulation of an experiment that confirms Boyle’s Law: pressure times volume is a constant for a gas at constant temperature. The apparatus consists of a syringe with its plunger that allows for the pressure to be changed under control of the user and for the volume to be measured. The user has control over the weight on the syringe plunger which changes the pressure. The user also controls a micrometer screw gauge that is used to measure the diameter of the syringe’s plunger. The user can position themself anywhere within the laboratory in order to take readings from the instrumentation. You can try one of the simulations from our website. Instructions are viewable within the simulation. The simulation is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: • Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. • As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. • For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. • To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. • As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class. Download is a PowerPoint giving full instructions including a video, background on the Physics and link to the simulation. The Virtual Physics Laboratory of which this simulation is a part, has the Association for Science Education’s Green Tick of Approval. More information can be found on our website. I’ve found your software very useful when a concept comes up with pupils and I have to demonstrate something really quickly without having the time to set up a formal experiment for them. The graphics are great and I really like the ability to move around the classroom and observe the experiment from different aspects. I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for.“ Andrew McPhee Wellington School I thought that the controls were pretty easy to get used to and the detail in the apparatus was excellent being able to zoom in and see the set up of the multi-meter and read scales, being careful of parallax. This type of software is most useful in experiments which can’t be done in the lab like the gravity on the moon or where the equipment is too expensive or difficult to use like the Millikan Oil drop."

Specific Heat of Brass - Interactive 3D Simulation
robATvirtual-sciencerobATvirtual-science

Specific Heat of Brass - Interactive 3D Simulation

(0)
This is a student or teacher controlled, realistic 3d simulation of an experiment that allows you to measure the specific heat of brass. The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat it can hold per unit mass. In this experiment we place a brass weight in boiling water. When the weight is in the boiling water it is gaining heat energy. After about four or five minutes it will be heated evenly to the temperature of the water. The brass weight can then be moved to the water in the calorimeter. It will then heat the water and the calorimeter. Knowing the specific heat of the water and calorimeter and the maximum temperature attained by them allows you to calculate the heat gained by them. This amount of heat gained must be the same as the amount of heat lost by the brass. This enables the specific heat of brass to be calculated. The user can move the weight from the heated water to the calorimter, he/she can control the shaker. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the simulations from our website. Instructions are viewable within the simulation. The simulation is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: • Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. • As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. • For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. • To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. • As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class.

This is a student or teacher controlled 3d simulation of an experiment that allows you to verify Hooke’s Law which states that the amount a substance stretches when a force is applied to it is proportional to the force. When we apply some force an elastic or a steel wire it will stretch and intuitively we are aware that the bigger the force the more it will stretch. We are also aware that some materials stretch more than others. What exactly is the relationship between the force and the amount something stretches for a particular material? That’s the question that we are going to answer with this experiment. The user can control the weight applying a force to the wire. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. You can try one of the simulations from our website. Instructions are viewable within the simulation.

There are 6 titles: Bernard Cuisine Louvre Proverbs Trafic Each title consists of an audio track by a French native speaker, and Word document with the French and English translation plus grammar notes on each sentence. For example, the first two sentences from the title ‘Louvre’ title are: Dans les années vingt, la ville de Paris était divisée en différents petits villages. In the twenties, the city of Paris was divided into small different villages. • Auxiliary être in the imperfect tense followed by the past participle of diviser, used here as an adjective. • Divisée (feminine singular) agrees with la ville de Paris.Differents, adjective, agrees with the noun villages. • The adjective petits agrees with the noun villages. Montmartre, par exemple, était déjà renommé pour ses vignes, ses jardins et ses moulins. • Montmartre, for instance, was already famous for its vineyards, its gardens and its windmills. • Imperfect tense of the auxiliary être followed by the adjective renommé. • Ses, possessive adjective, plural form of son, sa.

Conservation of Energy by Airtrack - Interactive 3D Simulation

(0)
This is a student or teacher controlled, realistic 3d simulation of an experiment that shows that the kinetic energy gained by a glider on an airtrack is equal to the potential energy lost though its descent on the downward slope of the airtrack. The user controls the raising of one end of the track, the starting position of the glider, the type and postions of the phototimers, and the air pump. The user is free to move anywhere within the laboratory in order to interact with the apparatus. Try a simulation from our website. Instructions on performing the experiment and controlling the simulation are within the simulation. The simulation is perfect for demonstrating this experiment in front of the class but can also be used by students in a variety of ways: • Directly to prepare for a laboratory experiment by familiarising them with the equipment to be used and the methodology of the experiment. • As revision for an experiment that has previously been performed in the laboratory. • For home-learning where there is no access to a laboratory. • To make up for an experiment missed due to sickness. • As a personal experience of an experiment normally only performed by the teacher in front of the class. Downloads are: a PowerPoint giving full instructyons including a video , background on the Physics and the simulation application in a zip file. The Virtual Physics Laboratory of which this simulation is a part, has the Association for Science Education’s Green Tick of Approval. More information can be found on our website. I’ve found your software very useful when a concept comes up with pupils and I have to demonstrate something really quickly without having the time to set up a formal experiment for them. The graphics are great and I really like the ability to move around the classroom and observe the experiment from different aspects. I am far more likely to go to one of your interactive experiments if it’s demonstrating something that we don’t have equipment for.“ Andrew McPhee Wellington School I thought that the controls were pretty easy to get used to and the detail in the apparatus was excellent being able to zoom in and see the set up of the multi-meter and read scales, being careful of parallax. This type of software is most useful in experiments which can’t be done in the lab like the gravity on the moon or where the equipment is too expensive or difficult to use like the Millikan Oil drop."
