This article, after examining advantages and disadvantages of the traditional use of cameras in physics laboratories at school, deals with the main characteristics of modern videocameras and VCRs; it also suggests a few applications of the relevant techniques which can be useful for classroom activity. […]
In this article we propose a classic experiment dealing with the conservation of energy. The device we describe allows a strong reduction of uncertainties in evaluating the thermal energy produced by a resistor in which an electrical current flows. […]
This article reports about certain aspects of the physics involved in automobile motion. First, we describe an experiment which aims at determining the friction experienced by a vehicle, as a function of its speed. By relying on commonly available instruments (a smartphone, […]
The work deals mainly with these three topics: a) Gravity is not a force, but a property of space time (curvature) b) The necessity of introduction of spin in General Relativity (torsion) c) The description of Gravity in real space time (geometric product), […]
