Download or read book Physics Experiments with Arduino and Smartphones written by Giovanni Organtini and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-06 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on the use of Arduino and Smartphones in physics experiments, with a focus on mechanics, introduces various techniques by way of examples. The main aim is to teach students how to take meaningful measurements and how to interpret them. Each topic is introduced by an experiment. Those at the beginning of the book are rather simple to build and analyze. As the lessons proceed, the experiments become more refined and new techniques are introduced. Rather than providing recipes to be adopted while taking measurements, the need for new concepts is raised by observing the results of an experiment. A formal justification is given only after a concept has been introduced experimentally. The discussion extends beyond the taking of measurements to their meaning in terms of physics, the importance of what is learned from the laws that are derived, and their limits. Stress is placed on the importance of careful design of experiments as to reduce systematic errors and on good practices to avoid common mistakes. Data are always analyzed using computer software. C-like structures are introduced in teaching how to program Arduino, while data collection and analysis is done using Python. Several methods of graphical representation of data are used.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you’re already a comfortable programmer, familiar with your single board computer and microcontroller, and are ready to refine your projects, then let’s get started! This book covers advanced methods and techniques for creating, implementing, monitoring and controlling your experiments and projects with your Raspberry Pi and Arduino. Projects will use Python and the Tkinter GUI and will also cover software development for adding real time data display to the Raspberry Pi. You'll review concepts of frequency occurring in nature and the techniques used to measure the frequency of electrically varying signal voltages. You'll also study procedures for safe design, implementation and operation of experimental measurement systems operating at high heats and high temperatures. Throughout the book you'll look at sources and types of errors, and best practices for minimizing and reducing them. Often times there are simple environmental issues hindering what would seem to be simple projects: high temperatures, controlling the power for elevated temperature with the proportional integral and derivative (PID) algorithm, and the limitations imposed by eight bit code, the influence of noise and errors in measured data, and many more. Advanced Arduino Techniques in Science provides the best tools to move past those restrictions. What You’ll Learn Implement an experimental control system and graphical data display for the Raspberry Pi and Arduino Manage experimental control with PID algorithm implementation, tuning and limitations imposed by eight bit digital signals Build an analytical front end Examine data smoothing capability of the Kalman filter Explore available methods for measuring both high and low frequency values in electronic signals Who This Book Is For Educators, researchers, students, makers, citizen scientists, or hobbyists can all extend their measuring capability or improve upon the quality of their collected data.

Download or read book INNOVATIVE PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS USING ARDUINO written by Prof. Dr. H. K. Sahjwani and published by Notion Publisher. This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interesting crisp book "Physics Experiments Using Arduino" is a labour of love of Professor H. K. Sahjwani and reflects his keen desire to take Arduino to School Students and teachers and to reveal to them how this platform can be used by schools for learning Physics. Book is an amalgam of two aspects: i) Arduino as a toolbox (using C as programming language) and ii) Physics experiments. Author has followed an approach which makes it a self-learning resource for students, with teacher playing the role of a facilitator. As the National President of the Indian Association of Physics Teachers (IAPT) I have been a witness to this approach during number of workshops which Prof Sahjwani conducted in both online and hybrid modes under the auspices of Delhi and Haryana Regional Council of IAPT (RC-01), felicitated by Prof. Seema Vats President RC-01, Prof. OP Sharma and Prof. V.P. Srivastava. Converting those experiences of the workshop into this book extends the reach of those workshops to thousands of willing teachers and students across the country. This is indeed commendable and is part of the vision of IAPT to facilitate Physics resource generation, using the latest technologies which can be used effectively in Physics classrooms and laboratories in schools and colleges. IAPT has an academic agenda in which this book fits in precisely because of real time experience which Arduino provides with wonderful visualisation through its interface via a laptop or a PC. Through Arduino IDE app. One of the challenging tasks in learning physics is to relate theory with experiments, with the availability of cutting-edge technologies, it requires vision of a willing teacher to do something more for the students, this is where this book speaks volumes of the effort and vision of Professor Sahjwani an acclaimed Physics Teacher and Innovator. Only a decade back we would never ever have hoped such things coming in the hands of a school student. All the physics experiments given in the book have been carried out hands on, using the draft copy of the book to make it an experience without tears, encouraging learners to use Arduino as an exploratory tool for exploring physics. It also has a potential for students to do independent student projects mentored by teachers. I am happy that IAPT has benefitted a lot as a result of this work. I would like to profusely congratulate Professor Hari Sahjwani for adding this valuable learning resource to the arsenal of students, providing them an edge in physical, computational, and experimental thinking. I wish readers of this book a wonderful learning experience. Prof. PK Ahluwalia President Indian Association of Physics Teachers
