A microscope works by using lenses to magnify an image. Light passes through the specimen and then through two sets of lenses: the objective lens close to the specimen and the eyepiece lens close to the eye. Check it out: 5thperiodscience.org #5PS #Biology #microsocope

A lunar eclipse occurs when Earth's shadow falls on the Moon. Drag the Moon to see how it passes through Earth's shadow. A solar eclipse happens when the Moon moves between the Sun and Earth. Check it out at: 5thperiodscience.org #5PS #STEM

Optimised for phone too.

Formula mass calculation: the gateway skill for chemistry students. Master this, and you'll unlock mole calculations and reaction yields. Once you've got it down, formula mass calculators become your best time-saving allies. #5PS #STEM #ChemistrySkills #ScienceEducation

In this trampoline simulation, Potential Energy (PE) and Kinetic Energy (KE) are constantly converting into each other. At the highest point of the jump, PE is maximum and KE is zero. Check it out at: 5thperiodscience.org/Energytransfor… #5PS #Physics #Energy

Alkanes have a backbone of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached to fill the carbon's four bonding sites. In this game, we simplify alkanes to just their carbon backbone. See if you can beat my score of 1500 at: 5thperiodscience.org #5PS #Chemistry

The Faraday’s Electromagnetic Lab simulation allows students to experiment with magnets and coils to learn about Faraday's Law. #chatphysics #physics #Induction phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations…

Balancing Act allow students explore identical and different masses to develop rules for the factors that determine if two objects will balance each other. #ProportionalReasoning #RotationalEquilibrium phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations…

With Energy Forms and Changes, learners will explore the different types of energy using examples from everyday life and then describe how energy can change from one form of energy into another. #ConservationofEnergy #EnergySystems #Physics phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations…

RGB stands for Red, Green, and Blue. It's an additive color model where these three colors of light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. 5thperiodscience.org/RGBcolourmixer #STEM #5PS #Colour
