Vernier Resistor Board

Description Simpler to use than a multimeter, the Go Direct Energy Sensor measures the voltage and current oputput of a renewable energy system. Connect a source, such as a small wind turbine or solar panel, and our free Graphical Analysis 4 app displays voltage, current, power, and energy output. For simple energy measurements, Go Direct Energy includes a fixed load of 30 Ω. For more advanced experiments, electrical contacts are built into the sensor to connect to an external load, such as the Variable Load, a resistor on Vernier Resistor Board, a water pump, or lights. The Go Direct Energy Sensor is ideal for a wide variety of renewable energy experiments:  Investigate the electrical energy generated by a wind turbine or solar panel. Explore the effect of load on wind turbine or solar panel output. Test blade design variables and evaluate data to determine optimal blade design. Rechargeable Battery—Ready When You Are The robust rechargeable battery offers long battery life and provides always-ready operation when using the sensor wirelessly. Monitor battery life directly from our free Graphical Analysis™ 4 app or LabQuest 2 App. Should the battery run low, simply connect the sensor to the charging cable and keep on collecting—no interruptions or inconvenience to you or your students. Wired or Wireless—The Flexibility to Choose Our Go Direct sensors connect directly to your mobile device, Chromebook™, or computer using our free Graphical Analysis™ 4 app—no additional equipment or software purchases are necessary. Go Direct sensors can be used wired via USB or wirelessly via Bluetooth® wireless technology, allowing you to choose the solution best for your classroom or laboratory.

Wind Energy Explorations consists of nine wind energy experiments for students to study renewable energy and wind power and practice engineering design. Using the Wind Energy Explorations Go Direct® Package, which includes Go Direct Energy, a Vernier Resistor Board, and the KidWind Basic Experiment Kit, and Graphical Analysis™ 4 app, students will gain an understanding of energy, circuits, and loads as they explore wind energy. Topics Include Renewable energy Wind power Engineering design

Explore wind energy affordably and easily. This kit, one of our most popular, allows young scientists to test a variety of blade designs, generate electricity (0.5 –3 V range), and lift weights. The Basic Wind Experiment Kit has all the materials you need to get started understanding wind power. Great for classrooms, as well as individual science fair projects.  

Il s'agit d'une turbine facile à construire qui allume une ampoule à DEL et joue un air. Les pales très efficaces produisent beaucoup de puissance dans un léger vent.

La mini éolienne KidWind avec conception de pales permet aux élèves d'explorer les concepts de base de production d'énergie éolienne et de conception de pales comme le pas, la surface, la masse, la quantité et le matériau sur un bureau à l'aide d'un petit ventilateur de maison. Cette trousse est la trousse recommandée pour Investigating Wind Energy. La mini éolienne KidWind est une éolienne simple et facile à construire dotée d'un ensemble de pales efficace et de conception optimale qui permet d'allumer une ampoule LED à l'aide d'un petit ventilateur de maison.

What's Included Go Direct® Energy Sensor Solar Energy Exploration Kit Go Direct® Surface Temperature Sensor Vernier Resistor Board

Perform all of the same investigations as the Basic Wind Experiment Kit with the ability to generate more power at higher voltages ( 0.5 V–20 V).  Discover advanced concepts of wind turbine technology, including es and generator construction (with the GenPack add-on). Students can use the blades they design to generate electricity, lift weights, and pump water. This kit is perfect for grades 7–12 and college. All you need to add is a wind source, basic tools, and imagination!
