Combining Physics and Mathematics Learning: A Taylor Series Analysis of an Oscillating Magnetic Field
Santiago Ortuno-Molina, Adrian Garmendia-Martinez, Pedro Fernandez-de-Cordoba +3
In this work, we present a simple and low-cost experiment designed to study the oscillations of the magnetic field created by a cylindrical magnet under two different conditions: f…
Using a remote control to determine the infrared absorption coefficient in water
Santiago Ortuno-Molina, Adrian Garmendia-Martinez, Francisco M. Munoz-Perez +2
In this work, we present a simple and low cost experiment designed to determine the infrared water absorption coefficient. We used a TV remote control as a point source of infrared…
A diffraction approach to assess the elastic properties of a nylon string
Francisco M. Muñoz-Pérez, Adrián Garmendía-Martínez, Juan C. Castro-Palacio +2
The Youngś modulus of a nylon string has been determined experimentally by combining elasticity theory and wave optics. A diffraction experiment has been setup to determine the cha…
