Basic Idea:

• Develop an experiment to test a model

• 8 

	What:	How Many:	Where:
	Metal rod (skinny rod, 50 cm long)	1	non-Majors storeroom, shelf B4
	Small bench clamp	1	non-Majors storeroom, shelf C4
	Meterstick clamp	1	non-Majors storeroom, shelf C2
	1 m & 2 m - Meterstick	1 each	non-Majors Storeroom, shelf AA1
The following are shared; place on the instructor's bench
	Helium-Quality Balloons	All	non-Majors storeroom, shelf G2
Lab Practical Practice - place on small table
	Photogates	2	non-Majors storeroom, BB3
	Vernier calipers	2	non-Majors storeroom, shelf BB3
The following are no longer needed, but left here for future reference
	Free Fall Timer	1	non-Majors storeroom, shelf G2
	Button batteries for timers (LR11130 or LR54)	All	non-Majors storeroom, shelf G2
	Piece of cardboard	1	non-Majors storeroom, shelf NN5

Notes:

• Lab Setup (photo details).
  • Note to Jeff: Need new setup photos!
  • Use helium-quality balloons - they're less likely to break during the experiment. Jeff will purchase balloons from St. Lawrence Supply, 114 Route 345, Potsdam. Note that new balloons need to be purchased every year! They are more likely to break after sitting around for the year.
    • During Fall 2021, the timers were so unreliable that they were unusable, and we had students use their smart phones. If the timers will again be used, check that the button batteries for the timers are in good condition. 2 per timer; 1.5 volt, 390/389 {LR1130 - LR54 equivalent}
