I guess there will be a new peak in the use of "disappear" as a transitive verb:

A lovely collection of interesting papers. Happy to be part of it.

Thanks for the video! Nice animations, and, of course, a very useful app!

I think the alignment option is going to be really helpful for measurements in amusement rides (although I would prefer to view the vector a-g, which reflects the forces you feel as you ride

Lucia greetings from Sweden

For many years, Lucia meant a very early start to be ready for choir singing in the Lucia train.
Now, we were happy to stay at home and view a very well done SvT program from Sala

Is uniform rectilinear motion boring?
Is accelerometer data sufficient to reproduce the motion?
Today's door in the advent calendar introduce a twist.

1 December. Door 1 can be opened. Examples of Newton's first law, and high-speed motions that we do not feel.
The Liseberg theatre was once a planetarium.

Playground swings are lovely examples, from qualitative to quantitative: pubs.aip.org/aapt/pte/art...

I let it rest on the handrail:
g /2 corresponds to 30° slope, consistent with the 66 m length and 33 m elevation difference, as stated by Wikipedia ;-)
(and with measurement of the step, where I got h≈20cm and L≈40cm for another escalator, seen from inside and outside in this figure (Phys Ed 2020)
November 22, 2024 at 12:25 PM
And what is the slope?

Yesterday I used #phypox to measure the air pressure variation in Sweden's longest escalator at the Västra skogen underground station #IteachPhysics

With a background in computational atomic physics, I have slowly transitioned to Physics Education. Love using real-life examples - and ways to illustrate the equivalence between
inertial and gravitational mass

I was happy to see the invitation to the #iteachphysics community on this platform as a way to initiate the escape from you-know-where.
A recent amusement ride smartphone measurements was in this little ride. Challenge for students - work out the forces top and bottom. #phyphox #physicstoolbox

An #AmusementParkPhysics advent calendar, based on a #Liseberg map for the Christmas season. You can open door 0 already now, but otherwise the doors can't be opened until the date with the number. tivoli.fysik.org/english/cale...

I discovered that you can do it with a playground swing, as well. #iTeachPhysics. And you need practice also - not just belief in physics ;-)
