Resistance in a wire - Simulation

By Sandile MHlophe -

 

Topics

  • Resistivity
  • Resistance
  • Circuits

Description

Observe changes to the equation and wire as you play with the resistivity, length, and area sliders.

Sample Learning Goals

  • Predict how changing each variable will affect the resistance.
  • Explain the difference between resistance and resistivity.

Do we have free-will?

By Sandile MHlophe -
 Are you free?  we often think we are free but are we really free? this question sounds so simple yet it is actually not. What does it even mean to be free? Well in this post I will explain to the best of my knowledge what is free will and whether we have it or not. can you escape fate?

 Umlingiswa ongummeleli emdlaweni othi, Ubhuku lwamanqe. ISINGENISO  Ummeleli ngumlingiswa oyiqhawe. Indaba yonke incike kuye.  Yize engekho kwezinye izehlakalo kodwa ziyamthinta ngandlela thize. Indaba yonke imayelana naye. Ubhekana nenkinga ethile ashikashikeke ezama ukuyixazulula. Kuyenzeka aphumelele noma ehluleke.

Faradays Law - Simulation

By Sandile MHlophe -
  Topics Faraday's Law Magnetic Field Magnets Description Investigate Faraday's law and how a changing magnetic flux can produce a flow of electricity! Sample Learning Goals Explain what happens when the magnet moves through the coil at different speeds and how this affects the brightness of the bulb and the magnitude & sign of the voltage. Explain the difference between moving the magnet through the coil from the right side versus the left side. Explain the difference between moving magnet through the big coil versus the smaller coil.

Curve Fitting - Simulation

By Sandile MHlophe -
  Topics Polynomials Error Analysis Data Description Drag data points and their error bars and watch the best-fit polynomial curve update instantly. You choose the type of fit: linear, quadratic, or cubic. The reduced chi-square statistic shows you when the fit is good. Or you can try to find the best fit by manually adjusting fit parameters.
