In this lab, students will use a light sensor to measure the amplitude and frequency of vibrations during three simulated earthquakes.
Mapping the Ocean Floor
In this lab, students will use a motion sensor to scan a cross-section of a simulated ocean floor terrain.
Monitoring Weather
In this lab, students will use a weather sensor to monitor weather outdoors at various times of day for an extended period of time.
Night and Day
In this lab, students use a light sensor to measure the light level that falls on a simulated earth's surface as it turns through several rotations.
Observing Clouds
In this lab, students will use a weather sensor to measure meteorological conditions over a period of one week or more.
