Showing 22 experiments that use the PASPORT Temperature Sensor.
Electrical Equivalent of Heat
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the amount of electrical energy that is equivalent to a certain amount of thermal energy. This is accomplished...
Phase Change
Students will use a wireless temperature sensor to determine the effect of phase change on the temperature of a substance.
Mixing Water
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to observe that mixing hot and cold water results in a new, averaged temperature.
Exploring Temperatures
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to explore temperature changes. This lab will help students recognize temperature as a measurement of how...
Hot and Cold
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to observe the property of temperature. Students will learn that this property can be measured using a thermometer...
Freezing and Melting Water
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to measure the temperature of water in different forms. Students will learn that water can exist in different...
Feeling and Measuring Temperature
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to compare the results of measuring temperature to how the temperature feels.
Cars and Heat
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to determine how the temperature inside a car parked in the sun compares to the temperature of the air outside...
Temperature and Change
In this lab, students use a temperature sensor to determine how temperature effects the time it takes for a sugar cube to dissolve or an antacid tablet...
Keeping Warm
In this lab, students will use a temperature sensor to understand which materials conduct heat and which don’t, and why they do or don’t.
