Francés, Jorge; Navarro-Fuster, Víctor; Marini, Stephan; Bleda, Sergio; Calzado, Eva María; Puerto, Daniel; Gallego, Sergi – Physics Education, 2021
This work shows the redesign of an elemental experience based on the Helmholtz resonator using 3D printing. A Helmholtz resonator is based on a volume and at least one opening that can include a tube or not. The air column inside the tube can be considered the mass of the system, whereas the volume represents the system's stiffness. Due to these…

Calheiro, L. B.; Freitas, W. P. S.; Martins, C. A.; Goncalves, A. M. B. – Physics Education, 2021
We propose an apparatus that emulates the experiment used by Geiger and Marsden in 1913 to investigate alpha particles (Rutherford) scattering. Using a widely available fused deposition modelling 3D-printer, we built a compartmented and easily assembled educational instrument. The whole apparatus is composed of a 3D-printed chamber and an…
