Abstract
Real remote laboratory experiment on Joule´s experimentation has both the historical and pedagogical importance in the building of the bridge between macro and micro world. Dissipative forces and their work as a transformation of the macroscopic mechanical energy into the energy of thermal movement are decisive in the study of mechanical phenomena of real world. The remote experiment should both qualitatively and quantitatively describe the transformation of macroscopic kinetic energy into heat and show the quantities, active in the transformation. The remote experiment represents a new generation of ISES remote experiments. The measureserver is equipped with a new diagnostics block, enabling diagnosis information on remote experiments both for the client and the provider.
Highlights
The Joules experiment played the decisive role in the insight into micro-world of the 19th Century and proved the equivalence of the concept of energy for both microand micro-world
The Joules experiment, which dates back to 1840, was originally designed as a system of rotating paddles in a thermally isolated vessel filled with water, arranged so that they can revolve
The adjustable friction force by the weight (8) and measured by the dynamometer (1) is exerted by the plastic belt, which is wound on the rotating cylindrical metallic body (3)
Summary
The Joules experiment played the decisive role in the insight into micro-world of the 19th Century and proved the equivalence of the concept of energy for both microand micro-world. This is the reason to build the Joulesexperiment for contemporary teaching, as insight into micro-world is difficult point for the teacher to explain. The remote experiment (RE), though relying on the original concept, uses modern experimental parts of the standard setup of ISES RE [1], [2].
