Peer reviewedGordon, Sheldon P.; Gordon, Florence S. – Primus, 1999
Describes a simple cooling experiment that can be conducted in class at the college algebra, precalculus, calculus, or differential equations level whose aim is to determine the best exponential function to fit the experimental data. (Author/ASK)
Descriptors: Algebra, Calculus, College Mathematics, Demonstrations (Science)
Peer reviewedTrumper, Ricardo; Gelbman, Moshe – Physics Education, 1997
Presents examples of experiments designed for high school students with the help of a microcomputer-based laboratory called Explorer. Argues that these tools enable students to investigate many principles of physics that were not feasible in the past. (DDR)
Descriptors: Calculus, Computer Interfaces, Computer Uses in Education, Data Collection
Peer reviewedDemana, Franklin; Waits, Bert K. – Mathematics Teacher, 1993
Discusses solutions to real-world linear particle-motion problems using graphing calculators to simulate the motion and traditional analytic methods of calculus. Applications include (1) changing circular or curvilinear motion into linear motion and (2) linear particle accelerators in physics. (MDH)
Descriptors: Acceleration (Physics), Calculus, Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Simulation
