Vernier Software & Technology

Measure the acceleration of gravity with whichever sensor you have, or no sensor. We’ll discuss using a Picket Fence and a Photogate, tossing a ball over a Motion Detector, Galileo’s method, and using Vernier Video Analysis for a falling object. Is there a best way? Sensor data collected in class can be shared to remote students using Graphical Analysis Pro. Share your favorite g labs in the chat with other teachers.
