Serc: Lab: Measuring the Speed of Sound in Air (With Uncertainty Analysis)
Using a measurement technique called measurement and uncertainty, students will measure the speed of sound. Students need to use a microphone and Vernier LabQuest to record and measure the sound of a finger-snap echo.

Serc: Lab: Horizontally Launched Projectiles (With Uncertainty Analysis)
This lab takes a "time- tested" lab and puts a new spin on it by using the uncertainty of all measurements and uncertainty of their prediction. Students will use this measurement technique while using the kinematics equation to predict...
