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…

Zeze, Syoji; Itoh, Akio; Oyama, Ayu; Takahashi, Haruka – Physics Education, 2012
We present a sensitive diffusion cloud chamber which does not require any radioactive sources. A major difference from commonly used chambers is the use of a heat sink as its bottom plate. The result of a performance test of the chamber is given. (Contains 8 figures.)

Kamata, Masahiro; Takeuchi, Noriko; Akahane, Hisao; Shoji, Ryuichi – Physics Education, 2002
Although ammeters are very important tools for science classes in elementary and junior high schools, many ordinary ones are not easy to handle nor sufficiently educational. From this viewpoint, the authors have investigated the possibility of using clamp-on ammeters, which are very common among professional electricians, for educational purposes.…
