Sakon, Takuo; Noissiki, Sota; Yamazaki, Junya – Physics Education, 2021
In this study, we develop a capacitive rotating angle sensing system using a hand-made 1 kHz oscillator, field-effect transistor (FET) amplifier, and tester through a physics experiment conducted in Ryukoku University. Physics majors of the university can study the fundamentals of electronics through this system because it uses electronic…

Yoshikawa, Masahiro; Koga, Nobuyoshi – Journal of Chemical Education, 2016
This study focuses on students' understandings of a liquid-gas system with liquid-vapor equilibrium in a closed system using a pressure-temperature ("P-T") diagram. By administrating three assessment questions concerning the "P-T" diagrams of liquid-gas systems to students at the beginning of undergraduate general chemistry…

Ohashi, Atsushi – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
A high-school third-year or undergraduate first-semester general chemistry laboratory experiment introducing simple-cubic, face-centered cubic, body-centered cubic, and hexagonal closest packing unit cells is presented. Latex balls and acrylic resin plates are employed to make each atomic arrangement. The volume of the vacant space in each cell is…

Set, Seng; Ford, David; Kita, Masakazu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
This research revealed that metal ions with different charges could significantly affect the viscosity of aqueous sodium carboxylmethylcellulose (CMC) solution. On the basis of an Ostwald viscometer, an improvised apparatus using a dropping ball for examining the viscosity of liquids/solutions has been developed. The results indicate that the…
