My Project

I am requesting wireless rotational motion sensors for my physics students. The sensors will allow my students to measure rotational position, velocity, and acceleration in real time. My students will be able to investigate phenomena like angular momentum and conservation of angular momentum to describe situations in which angular momentum is conserved and situations where it is not conserved.

High school physics students have difficulty understanding the concepts involving rotation and having a hands-on way to measure and compare rotational quantities will take these concepts out of the abstract and make them more concrete for my students.
