Ideal gas laws and the workings of an ancient Chinese toy – Physics Video Tutorial

tutorial-overview-360x67.png

Is there something out there that is much older than Galileo’s thermometer? Is there a simple toy that can simply explain thermal expansion, Ideal gas laws, and at the same time contest the thermoscope of Galileo Galilei? Watch Dr. Milner-Bolotin as she introduces one of her best souvenirs from her trip to China.

created by Teacher Candidates in EDCP 357 using Camtasia software in December 2016 as part of an in-class assignment supported by Dr. Marina Milner-Bolotin along with her GAAs (Solmaz & Gerald) and our TLEF coop student (Katya)
