In this experiment students observe a combustion reaction and deduce the components necessary for the reaction to occur. They also see the relationship between pressure, volume, and number of molecules for gases.

Investigate the physical force exerted upon organisms and objects by the environment, and relate pressure to depth in deep-sea exploration. Experiment to discover the impact of pressure on the lungs.

An exhaustive list of equations and formulas which are commonly used in thermal physics (including equations for triple point). Equations are organized according to category. Meaning of the symbols is clearly stated.

Provides a short biographical sketch of Robert Hooke and describes his most notable scientific discoveries, contributions, and associations.
