Paula Fehlinger; Sebastian Becker-Genschow; Bianca Watzka – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
The ability to accurately interpret mathematical functions is crucial for understanding complex physical and mathematical concepts. Differentiating isothermal from adiabatic change of state in p-V diagrams respectively graphs of indirectly proportional functions from graphs of power functions in x-y diagrams presents a common challenge for…
