Comparison of the heat capacities of water & soil with Cobra4

Item no.: P4100160 Principle These measurements help to quickly and simply introduce the term “heat capacity”. The students learn on which characteristics temperature changes of surfaces depend. As practical example, reference can always be made here to the hot sand at the seaside. Tasks To prepare comparison curves showing the different heat capacities of water

Ferromagnetic hysteresis with Cobra4

Item no.: P2430760 Principle A magnetic field is generated in a ring-shaped iron core by a continuous adjustable direct current applied to two coils. The field strength Η and the flux density B are measured and the hysteresis recorded. The remanence and the coercive field strength of two different iron cores can be compared. Tasks Record the hysteresis curve

Magnetic Induction with Cobra4

Item no.: P2440260 Principle A magnetic field of variable frequency and varying strength is produced in a long coil. The voltages induced across thin coils which are pushed into the long coil are determined as a function of frequency, number of turns, diameter and field strength. Tasks Determination of the induction voltage as a function

Equation of state for ideal gases with Cobra4

(gas laws: Gay-Lussac, Amontons, Boyle) Item no.: P2320160 Principle The state of a gas is determined by temperature, pressure and amount of substance. For the limiting case of ideal gases, these state variables are linked via the general equation of state. For a change of state under isochoric conditions this equation becomes Amontons’ law. In
