Direct linkScomparin, P. R.; Carvalho-Neto, J. T. – Physics Education, 2018
Newton's laws of mechanics are a cornerstone in the development of modern science and its learning can be the very first opportunity for students to defy their common sense perceptions and replace them with a more robust world view. However, despite their fundamental importance, many studies demonstrate how difficult is the true comprehension of…

Wadhwa, Ajay – Physics Education, 2009
We introduce a new method of determining the coefficient of restitution (COR) of a ball-surface combination by using the sound produced by the impact/collision of the ball with the surface. Using a digital electronic circuit, the electrical signal is amplified and fed to a digital storage oscilloscope through a relay circuit for measuring the time…
