LAB - How fast is a solar cart?
Students study the motion of a solar powered cart using video analysis.Students will determine the speed of a solar cart from a position vs. time graph, and they will also be able to use the information from the chart to describe the motion. Is the velocity of the solar powered cart constant? How constant the velocity is?A video of the motion is uploaded for the video analysis, and a key is also provided. results may differ depending on the cart used.

Acceleration of a cart in a ramp
Students will be able to measure the acceleration of a cart down the ramp for different inclination angles, collected data may be used to predict the acceleration of the cart for an angle of 90 degrees by extrapolation. A graph of acceleration vs. sine(angle) should yield a strait line with a slope equals to the free fall acceleration g. A key and student sample data is provided.

Chemistry Laboratory: Syringe Pumps (Enrichment Chemistry Series)
The New Era Syringe Systems, Inc. syringe pumps are remarkable. They are perfect for grade-level 9-12, laboratory-course teachers who wish to add STEM chemical-engineering experiments. Large-scale chemical systems – e.g., oil refineries and chemical plants – are flow systems. In contrast, laboratory, small-scale chemical systems – usually round-bottom flasks – are batch systems.
The value of a syringe pump is its enormous range of flow rates – as much as one-million to one -- which depend
