PP+ RC Circuits vs Circuit

The RC Circuits lab uses a power supply, voltmeters, capacitors, and resistors to investigate RC circuits. It is part of Polyhedron Physics Plus, a set of 24 iPad apps for use in the classroom. To see how they work, try the FREE PP+ Newton’s 2nd Law lab. For those who’d prefer to develop their own experiments, the PP RC Circuits app features a similar apparatus without lab procedures and other supporting materials. In addition to a 3D simulation that produces realistic data, each lab includes introductory videos, background theory, experimental procedure, analysis and reporting tools, pre-lab quiz, post-lab questions, and teacher support materials. The experimental data produced by the simulations are realistic, including random and systematic errors. These features allow students to use standard data analysis and error analysis techniques to report on their own unique data, just as if the experiment had been performed using hands-on equipment. These labs can serve as replacements for hands-on labs, especially when equipment is not available, or as supplements to hands-on labs. They are also a suitable option for students in distance learning and home school situations. Formative and summative evaluations showed no significant difference in learning between students using the virtual labs and those using hands-on labs. Preliminary results suggest increased learning by students using the virtual labs as supplements to hands-on. Polyhedron Physics was developed by Polyhedron Learning Media, Inc. with partial funding provided under contract numbers ED-07-CO-0040 and ED-IES-11-C-0029 from the Institute of Education Sciences in the U.S. Department of Education through the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program.

The CircuitDesign is a feature rich app designed by an engineer. This app allows the creative smart people like you to design, draw, analyse, simplify and solve electrical circuits. You can design, draw, solve and simplify resistor-network, solve capacitor-network, solve inductor-circuit. You can design, draw, solve and simplify parallell circuit diagrams, series circuit diagrams, delta/wye circuit diagrams and any combinations of these. You can convert delta to wye and wye - delta network You can convert current source to voltage source or voltage source to current source You can design your own resistor (3,4,5 or 6 band resistor) or find the value for existing resistor You can even share your creativity with other people. Save the diagram locally. Do you have a complex network involving any combinations of parallell network, series network, delta/wye network? Fantastic. You can simplify this network and see how its done step by step so you can learn how to simplify networks. You can go back all the way to original network to see how the simplification was done. Simply stated, view simplification steps graphically. Keeps the historical diagram so that you can go back and verify each step. You can also share the simplification steps or save it locally. It automatically saves your hard work locally on your device so you can come back and pick up from where you left off as your great effort of drawing diagrams and simplifying/solving it will not be lost. Are you a high school student learning electricity? This is the app for you. Are you a university student learning electrical engineering? This is the app for you. There is also a page to help you study. This study tab teaches you some very important laws of electricity and important formula. Like Ohm, law, Kirchhoff's volgate law, Kirchhoff's current law, There is also a page to help you learn now to use this app. This is a perfect app for a creative smart individual like you. This is an app for all student groups. From high school to college to university students. Be creative. Enjoy the app!
