Summary

Perform an acid-base titration to determine the concentration of an unknown acetic acid solution using a sodium hydroxide titrant. This laboratory emphasizes visual measurements dealing with the meniscus of the burette, and supports two different configurations. 

The first one is for a potentiometric approach: you will have access to a digital pH sensor and you can use it to determine when the unknown solution has been neutralized. 

The second one is for a colorimetric approach: you can rely on the color change due to the presence of a phenolphthalein indicator, without having a digital pH sensor available.

 

Acid-base Titration

Titrations are a volumetric method that is based on measuring the amount of a known-concentration reactive (known as a primary standard) that is consumed by an unknown-concentration sample known as analyte.

The titration is conducted by adding the titrant to the analyte using a burette, so as to obtain a chemically-equivalent substance between the titrant and the analyte. This is known as the "equivalence point" and it is a theoretical value that cannot be experimentally determined.

The experimental estimation of this point is obtained through an approximation known as "final point". This is determined through a physical change. In that case, the change in color of the solution is achieved after adding an indicator substance: a substance that changes color in certain ranges of pH.

For the acid-base titration we use a phenolphthalein indicator that becomes a light pink after a pH of around 8.4, which is a value that is very close to the equivalence point in the most common acid-base titrations.

Alternatively, in the potentiometric configuration, a digital pH sensor can be used to determine the “equivalence point”.

 

Colorimetric vs Potentiometric approach

The colorimetric approach relies on the color change provided by the phenolphthalein indicator. The potentiometric approach relies instead on the pH raise as measured by the digital sensor. In this version of the laboratory there are two different configurations available, one for each approach. In the colorimetric configuration students may not see the digital pH sensor.

 

Differences with the Acid-Base Titration II laboratory

In this version of the laboratory (Acid-Base Titration II) you can perform the acid-base titration for an unknown acetic acid solution. In the other version of the laboratory (see Acid-Base Titration I) you can perform the acid-base titration for a citric acid solution instead.

This version of the laboratory emphasizes visual burette measurements, including properly reading the meniscus in the burette. The other version of the laboratory (see Acid-Base Titration I) does not emphasize this, and focuses on the calculations instead.

Also, in this version you can choose between two different configurations: one for the potentiometric approach and one for the colorimetric approach. The configuration for the colorimetric approach does not show the pH sensor. In the other version of the laboratory (see Acid-Base Titration I) there is a single configuration and the sensor is always shown.

Summary

Perform an acid-base titration to determine the concentration of an unknown hydrochloric acid solution using a sodium hydroxide titrant. This laboratory emphasizes visual measurements dealing with the meniscus of the burette, and supports two different configurations.

Summary

Perform an acid-base titration to determine the concentration of an unknown citric acid solution using a sodium hydroxide titrant. A digital pH sensor is always available and a phenolphthalein indicator has been applied to the unknown solution so that both a potentiometric and colorimetric approach can be used. A real-time plot is also available.

This version of the laboratory emphasizes the calculations but does not have visual burette measurements among its learning objectives. The other version of the laboratory (see Acid-Base Titration II) emphasizes visual measurements, and students must learn to read the meniscus of the burette properly.

Also, in this version there is a single experience that can be used for both the colorimetric and potentiometric approaches. In the other version of the laboratory (see Acid-Base Titration II) there are two different configurations available, in one of which the digital sensor is hidden so that students may only rely on the color change.

Experiment with buoyancy, the Principle of Archimedes, and similar physical laws. Take related measurements, conduct experiments, and start doing relatively advanced calculations to draw conclusions.

The experiments from the Advanced version of the Buoyancy laboratory will normally display more data (such as data from liquid level sensors and object weight sensors) and the proposed activities will involve numerical calculations of varying difficulty.

Experiment with Archimedes' principle: raise and lower balls of different materials, sizes, and weights in a liquid and observe what happens. Do they sink or float? Why? Can you determine their weight, the volume of displaced liquid, or the buoyant force? Try to answer these questions by observing the experiment and using the values provided by the sensors.

Summary

The Boyle's Law laboratory allows students to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at ambient and constant temperature. Students can choose from two different volume syringes and measure the pressure of the gas as they reduce the volume. The experiment is reflected in a graphical analysis in the form of an isotherm. In this way, they can verify Boyle's Law and learn about the behavior of gases in a practical and accessible manner.

 

Boyle's Law

Boyle's Law states that at a constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. This means that when the pressure of a gas increases, its volume decreases, and vice versa. Boyle's Law can be mathematically expressed as:

V ∝ 1/P

Where V is the volume of the gas and P is the pressure of the gas.

The Boyle's Law laboratory allows students to put this law into practice and verify it in an experimental context. By measuring the volume and pressure of the gas at different times, they can plot an isotherm graph that shows how the volume of the gas changes based on its pressure. If the isotherm graph fits Boyle's Law, then the students have experimentally verified the law.

Performing experiments like this is an excellent way to learn about the behavior of gases and how different variables are related. In addition, hands-on experiments can be more accessible and memorable for students than simply reading about the law in a textbook. The isotherm graph clearly visualizes the behavior of the gas and verifies if the predictions of Boyle's Law are met.

 

Application in Secondary and University Education

The Boyle's Law laboratory is typically applied in science courses at the high school level and in chemistry courses at the university level. At the high school level, the laboratory can be applied in a science course where the basic concepts of chemistry and physics, such as the pressure and volume of gases, are studied. At the university, the Boyle's Law laboratory can be applied in a more advanced chemistry course where the study of gases and their behavior is delved into.

 

Objectives

A Boyle's Law laboratory can have different educational objectives depending on the educational level at which it is applied. Here are some examples of objectives that a Boyle's Law laboratory can have at both high school and university levels:

At the high school level:

• Students understand Boyle's Law and its importance in gas physics.
• Students practice experimental and observational skills.
• Students develop data analysis and representation skills.
• Students understand the relationship between temperature, pressure, and volume of gases.

At the university level:

• Students know Boyle's Law and its importance in gas physics.
• Students demonstrate experimental and observational skills in the laboratory.
• Students apply theoretical concepts of gas physics in practical situations.
• Students develop data analysis and representation skills in a scientific context.
• Students understand how temperature, pressure, and volume of gases relate in different situations.

Summary

This laboratory setup allows students to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide inside a sealed chamber containing seeds of similar size to each other. Students can choose between different experimental conditions: seeds previously soaked in distilled water or in an acetic acid solution at room temperature (24 ± 1)°C, or unsoaked seeds (not activated).

 

Versions of this laboratory

In this version of the laboratory, students, in a manner similar to a traditional hands-on experiment, will need to collect data from the sensor readings and draw their own plots or create their own spreadsheets to analyze and draw conclusions, as it does not include any plots nor allows students to download data.

There is an alternative version of the laboratory (Cellular Respiration with Plot) in which a plot is displayed at the end of each experiment and students can download the data onto a spreadsheet.

 

Carbon dioxide release in plant respiration

Cellular respiration is one of the vital functions carried out by all cells, through which various organic compounds are broken down and the energy needed for other processes is released.

The exchange of gases at a macroscopic level is evidence of the energy transformation processes that occur in cells. In the presence of oxygen, carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct of cellular respiration. This emission of carbon dioxide is essential for understanding the metabolism of living beings and its consequences in ecosystems.

 

Seed Activation

The imbibition or absorption of water by seeds is an essential process for activating their metabolism and for breaking dormancy, thus preparing the seed for germination. This phenomenon occurs by immersing the seeds in water or aqueous solutions for a specified period, such as soaking in distilled water or acetic acid. The duration and conditions of imbibition directly influence the metabolic activation of the seed, which is reflected in the rate of carbon dioxide release during the cellular respiration process. The metabolic rate can vary depending on the species and chosen imbibition conditions.

 

Experiments & Setup

The experimental device is equipped with a gaseous carbon dioxide sensor and a hermetic chamber. Students have the option to select from the three previously detailed seed activation experimental conditions.

In all experiments, seeds of the same species with similar sizes are used, which facilitates the comparison of results.

 

Learning Objectives

• Understand the scientific endeavor through the development of a controlled experiment and the interpretation of data related to biological processes.
• Relate the release of carbon dioxide under different experimental conditions to cellular respiration, differentiating the levels of organization of matter.
• Identify cellular respiration as an essential characteristic of living beings and understand the importance of the energy transformations it entails.

Versions of this laboratory

This version of the laboratory displays a plot at the end of each experiment and allows students to download the data in a spreadsheet. This allows students to analyze the results without needing to gather and plot the data themselves.

An alternative version of the lab exists (Cellular Respiration) in which the plot and the data are not available. That way, in order to analyse the results and reach proper conclusions, students need to gather and plot the data themselves from the discrete sensor readings, similarly to how they would do so in a traditional hands-on lab.

Centrifugal Pumps are used throughout many areas to transport fluids. Its rotational energy typically comes from an engine or an electric motor. 

In this laboratory you will be able to access and control such a pump, which is set up in a circuit that can be configured through several valves. The valves can configure it in a series or in a parallel configuration. It is also possible, under certain configurations, to observe the effects of cavitation.

Conservation of Momentum is a law of physics that describes how momentum, which characterizes motion, does not change in an isolated collection of objects, and its total remains constant.

In this remote laboratory you will be able to make two carts collide in an elastic or inelastic collision, and varying certain experimental variables such as the mass of the carts. You will thus be able to experimentally test whether the total momentum changes or not after the collision.

Summary

The Digital Trainer laboratory is designed towards students that are starting with digital logic, truth tables and Boole's Algebra.

During the activity, the student sees an Intel FPGA that implements a series of simple truth tables. The student can interact with the FPGA devices to vary the inputs to the system through switches, and observe the outputs through LEDs. The challenge is to determine which logical operator the FPGA implements in each case (e.g. AND, NAND...).

 

Further details

The activity is designed to be relatively simple and straightforward, but at the same time to be engaging for the students. It is designed in a game-like style, and it is based in real hardware (FPGAs). That way, it is not only useful to introduce and obtain familiarity with digital logic, but also it allows students to start seeing the future uses of that knowledge, interacting in a superficial way with FPGA devices, of the same kind that are used in industry.

Interaction with the FPGA devices does not add complexity, since students don't need to program them; they already implement a black box logic (which is precisely the point of the activity).

The laboratory is originally based in an activity that Intel Corporation frequently conducts in its seminars, both hands-on and remote, using their Intel DE1-SoC, Intel DE2-115, or other types of FPGAs.

Summary

For experimentation with analog circuits. Through this tool, you will have access to your own electronics laboratory. Using its interactive interface, you can use a prototyping board to connect components and wires. You can also connect and configure a function generator and a power supply. Once the circuit is designed, you can also take measurements using the multimeter or the oscilloscope. Both the circuits and the measurements are built and taken in reality: this is not a simulation. A relay-based system connects the components as you have defined them, resulting in real signals and measurements. Useful for activities in analog electronics such as Ohm's law, Kirchoff's law, component characterization, learning about instrumentation, types of circuits, etc.

 

Use and Instruments

The LabsLand Electronics Lab is very powerful and is based on an interactive interface with a virtual appearance. Like in a traditional analog electronics lab, the student has access and control over a series of instruments, which are the following: prototyping board, function generator, power supply, multimeter, oscilloscope. They also have access to a component tray, which they can incorporate into their circuit.

The main element is the prototyping board. Students usually start by creating their circuit here. To create a circuit, components will be dragged from the tray (at the top of the screen) to the prototyping board, and they will be connected using wires, accessible through the top-right toolbar. The interface is very interactive, allowing you to add, move, and remove components and wires freely.

The system also allows you to load and save already designed circuits. This feature will allow you to use complex circuits as a starting point if the activity has been designed that way; or to save circuits either to keep them or to submit them at the end of an activity.

From the prototyping board, you can see several connectors on the sides, which connect the circuit precisely with the rest of the instruments. The labels on these connectors are quite descriptive, but for example, the connectors on the top left, grouped as "DC Power", where it says +5V, GND, -5V, connect the circuit to the power supply.

To observe and configure an instrument, just select it from the bottom menu. For example, by clicking on "DC Power" we access the power supply. We can act on most of its controls, and this will have a direct effect on the circuit and the measurements (assuming we have connected the circuit correctly).

Once we have designed and built the circuit correctly, and configured the instruments, to take a measurement we will press the "Perform measurement" button at the bottom right. If the circuit is correctly designed, after a short lapse of time, we will see the result of the measurement in the instruments. If we had made a mistake or if the circuit was not possible to build either for safety reasons or because it is not supported; we would see an error message.

When taking a measurement of a circuit, we will see under the interface two real-time photographs of the equipment at the moment it takes the measurement. During the lapse of time in which it is taken, the circuit is physically configured using relays. Its status can sometimes be observed through the indicator LEDs.

 

Circuit Catalog

The key feature of LabsLand's Electronics Lab is that it's not a simulation: the circuits are genuinely constructed using relays, all the components incorporated into the circuits (resistors, diodes, capacitors...) are real, and the measurements are taken using real instruments. This makes it an extremely realistic and powerful lab, but at the same time, it involves certain inevitable limitations.

To begin with, the lab must support (physically incorporate) the specific component to be used. You can see which components are incorporated in the component tray. Furthermore, if you want to use more than one of the same type of component, the system must have an adequate number. In addition, for safety, the system is designed not to allow any type of interconnection. Short circuits or circuits that would exceed the power supported by the components, for example, cannot be constructed. Circuits that have not been endorsed for safety also cannot be built.

Because of this, to be able to design classroom activities and to use the Electronics Lab didactically in practice, we provide and recommend using the Circuit Catalog that we supply. The LabsLand Circuit Catalog lists a large set of circuits that we guarantee can be constructed and used safely, and that are usually useful in the various courses for which the Electronics Lab is used.

By designing class activities around circuits from the catalog, we will avoid the potential problem of an arbitrary circuit not being supported, either due to safety issues, component availability, or simply because it cannot be verified that it is valid to build it.

You can access the catalog through this link: https://labsland.com/pub/docs/experiments/hive/en/index.html and it is also listed in the contents section.

The catalog includes sections with circuits for:

• Resistors
• Diodes
• RC Circuits
• RLC Circuits
• Operational Amplifiers
• Transistors

We are continuously extending the catalog. If you are interested in a type of circuit that you believe could be useful, do not hesitate to contact us. Although we cannot guarantee to add it, we can analyze it and possibly incorporate it in future revisions.

 

Internal Operation

The LabsLand Electronics Laboratory is composed of several "Hives" distributed in different institutions around the planet, working as a "cluster" to provide circuits and measurements to users.

When designing a circuit, the circuit is not physically constructed, and measurements are not taken until the Take Measurement button is pressed. At that moment, one of the distributed nodes is assigned, which instantly constructs the circuit, takes the necessary measurements, and returns the result. The specific node that has taken a measurement can be observed in the interface, through the two real-time photographs. Each measurement can be directed to a different node: this is why you will occasionally see the image and provider of the last measure varies frequently if several are taken.

Internally, each node is a box that contains several instruments and several boards designed by LabsLand with relays and the components that will form the circuit. The "Hive Node Reference Documentation" document explains in detail the internal operation of the nodes, as well as the purpose of each type of internal board.

The nodes are designed so that the institution hosting them can add new circuits if they wish and customize them. This is also detailed in the manual.

 

Equipment

The equipment for this lab (i.e., the previously mentioned nodes) has been designed by LabsLand and is available for sale to be deployed in institutions. Institutions, by purchasing and deploying the equipment in their own facilities, obtain various benefits; among them, the ability to conduct research using them, and the ability to create and customize circuits.

Application in Secondary and University Education

The LabsLand Electronics Laboratory is an exceptionally valuable educational resource for both secondary and university education.

The lab provides a safe and interactive platform to explore the fundamentals of analog electronics. Students can learn about basic concepts, such as Ohm's Law and Kirchoff's Law, through experimentation with real circuits, something that would typically be limited or even out of their reach. They can also gain hands-on experience with lab instruments, such as oscilloscopes and multimeters, which are essential in the field of electrical and electronic engineering.

The lab can be used to reinforce and expand concepts introduced in electronics classes and experiment with more complex components, such as operational amplifiers and transistors, and design their own circuits for analysis and simulations.

The acidity of soils can occur due to various processes that promote a pH reduction. These processes occur naturally or by human action. The main sources of soil acidity are associated to hydrogen ions (H+) and aluminum ions (Al+3) in the soil's solution. Exchangeable acidity is determined through the use of neutral salts solutions such as potassium chloride (KCl). The acid ions (aluminum and hydronium) that are held in the colloidal fraction of the soil, that in the presence of a displacing ion (K+), makes those enter the soil solution. Afterward, that solution is titrated with a sodium hydroxide solution of the exact concentration to reach the last point of the neutralization reaction using phenolphthalein as an indicator.

Summary

The Multi-Phase Flowloop laboratory lets you carry out experiments to visualize flow patterns of multi-phase systems that develop in production tubing in possible real-life scenarios. Through variation of the water flowrate and the angle of the tubing itself, you can appreciate the forming of different flow patterns or “cuttings” depending on the chosen values.

 

Further details

Multi-phase systems are found in various industrial scenarios, not being an exception the oil and gas industry. The prediction and determination of the flow pattern in the production tubing is of great importance since this is directly involved with the optimization of the production itself.

Mixtures of hydrocarbons, water, sediments and gases found in reservoirs manifest different behaviors during their transportation to the ground’s surface. Predicting such behaviors enable a better understanding for adequate choice of pumping machinery and pipeline setups for a successful transport to their final processing facility. The Multi-Phase Flowloop test unit helps achieving a better predictiveness of how multi-phase systems behave in real life for further investigation. This enables the user a better comprehension and visualization of how multi-phase transportations react under variable production rates and mixture proportions.

 

 

• The test section is a transparent 0.04m internal diameter straight Plexiglas pipeline (1) with a length of 6m.
• This pipe is supported by a hydraulic screw-jack (2) and a carbon steel beam, the system can be inclined up to an angle of 90 degrees from its horizontal ground level.
• A stainless-steel centrifugal pump (3) connected to the main tank (4) provides water to the system. Equipped with an electromagnetic induction flow meter and by the rotational speed of the pump, the rate of the water flow can be adjusted to the desired values.
• In order to develop various phase-flow patterns, air can be injected into the water stream via an air-water mixer (5).
• A hopper (6) fitted to the top of the water tank serves to feed another phase, representing the solid sediment
• A high-speed camera (7) mounted at the Plexiglas pipeline records the flow.

The Multi-Phase Flowloop laboratory lets you carry out experiments to visualize flow patterns of multi-phase systems that develop in production tubing in possible real-life scenarios. Through variation of the water flowrate and the angle of the tubing itself, you can appreciate the forming of different flow-patterns or “cuttings” depending on the chosen values.

Learn Hardware design with real FPGAs!

In this laboratory, you can learn how to program using two Hardware Design Languages: VHDL or Verilog, and test your code in one of our multiple boards available. Every FPGA has a set of components already place, such as 10 LEDs, 6 7-segment displays or multiple clocks. In addition, you will have access to 10 virtual switches and 4 virtual buttons that you can use in your design and that you will see when interacting with the real hardware.

Whenever you synthesize your code, you will be assigned to a particular board (such as Terasic DE2-115 or Terasic DE1-SoC or others), and you will be able to send your code to one of the available boards and to turn on and off the switches or press the buttons and see how your design behaves. The boards are located in different universities, as you will see when using each board.

In this laboratory, you do not need any software or hardware installed in your computer, tablet or phone.

Summary

The remote laboratory offers a convenient way for schools and universities to conduct experiments on gravity and energy conservation. Students can choose from a variety of objects with different masses and release them using an electric switch. A receiving device will measure the time it takes for the object to fall, allowing students to experimentally calculate gravity and conduct other experiments related to free-falling objects. The laboratory offers activities for varying levels, making it suitable for students of all abilities. By using the remote laboratory, students can gain a deeper understanding of these fundamental concepts in physics.

Free-fall

Free-fall is a phenomenon that occurs when an object falls under the influence of gravity alone. This can be observed by dropping an object from a certain height and watching it accelerate towards the ground at a constant rate. In schools and universities, free-fall experiments are commonly used to help students understand and explore the fundamental concepts of gravity and energy conservation. These experiments typically involve releasing an object from a known height and using a receiving device to measure its time of fall, allowing students to calculate the acceleration due to gravity and conduct other experiments related to free-falling objects. By conducting these experiments, students can gain a deeper understanding of the physical principles that govern free-fall and how they apply to real-world situations.

In a free-fall experiment, students can carefully measure the initial height of the falling object and the time it takes to reach the ground, allowing them to calculate the acceleration due to gravity. Students can also experiment with different objects of varying masses to see how the acceleration due to gravity changes based on the mass of the object. In addition to helping students understand the basic principles of gravity and energy conservation, free-fall experiments can also be used to explore more advanced concepts in physics. For example, students can experiment with objects that have different shapes and densities to see how these factors affect the rate of free-fall. They can also use the results of their experiments to make predictions about the motion of objects in real-world situations, such as the motion of a skydiver or a satellite in orbit around the Earth. Overall, free-fall experiments are an engaging and effective way for students to learn about the fundamental principles of physics.

Summary

This lab facilitates magnetic field experiments with a steady current in a straight conductor, whose intensity can be adjusted. A movable Hall sensor measures the field's magnitude at various distances. In this version of the lab students manually record the data.

 

Versions of the lab

In this version of the lab, graphs are not included and data download by the student is not permitted. Instead, the student must collect the data from the sensor readings and the distance to the conductor, similar to a traditional practical experiment. This allows them to construct their own graphs and create custom spreadsheets for data analysis and conclusion drawing.

There is an alternative version of the lab (Magnetic Field with Graph) in which a graph is provided at the end of each experiment and students are allowed to download the data onto a spreadsheet. This version may be especially useful for those students who prefer more direct access to the data collected during the experiment.

 

Magnetic Field

Moving charged particles have the ability to create a magnetic field around them, which can interact with other moving charged particles. In this context, a conductor through which an electric current flows generates a magnetic field in its surroundings. This physical phenomenon is fundamental in numerous technological advances that we find in our daily lives, such as electric motors and various electronic devices.

 

Potential Experiments

Numerous experiments can be performed with our lab setup. Users can observe how the strength of the magnetic field varies with the current that generates it. They can explore the fundamental principles of electromagnetic induction, visualizing the link between a changing magnetic field and the induced electric current. By adjusting the probe's distance from the field, they can experimentally verify the inverse square law of magnetism, delving into the intricate relationship between field strength and distance.

 

Learning Objectives

Summary

The setup, useful for schools and universities, includes a Geiger counter that can measure the number of detected particle collisions. The user can choose among different radioactive sources, as well as an absorber to put between the radioactive source and the probe. Additionally, other parameters that users can vary are the distance and number of tests. This allows for a wide range of experiments and learning opportunities.

 

Radioactivity

Radioactivity is the process in which an atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting particles and radiation. This can occur naturally in certain elements, or artificially through the use of nuclear reactions. In the context of physics at schools and universities, studying radioactivity can provide valuable insights into the fundamental nature of matter and the laws of physics.

One common experiment in this area is the measurement of radioactivity using a Geiger counter. This instrument is able to detect the emission of particles from a radioactive source, allowing students to understand the basic principles of radiation and its effects on matter. By varying the type of radioactive source, the distance between the source and the detector, and the type of absorber material placed between the two, students can explore a wide range of phenomena and gain a deeper understanding of the underlying principles.

In addition to its educational value, studying radioactivity also has practical applications in fields such as medicine, energy production, and environmental protection. As such, it is an important topic for students to learn about, both for its intrinsic interest and for the many real-world applications it has.

 

Real-world applications of radioactivity

One of the most common applications of radioactivity is in the field of medicine. Radioactive isotopes are used in medical imaging techniques such as PET and SPECT scans, which allow doctors to see inside the body and diagnose diseases. Radioactive isotopes are also used in cancer treatments, such as radiotherapy, where they are used to kill cancer cells.

Radioactivity is also used in industries such as oil and gas exploration, where it is used to measure the permeability of rock formations and the flow of fluids through them. Radioactive isotopes are also used in smoke detectors and in the production of luminous watches and instruments.

Overall, radioactivity has a wide range of applications in fields such as medicine, industry, and even everyday consumer products. It continues to be an important area of study in physics and other sciences, and its uses continue to expand as new technologies are developed.

 

Radioactivity experiments at schools and universities

The use of a geiger counter in a radioactivity experiment allows for a wide range of possibilities. By varying the radiation emitters and absorbers, students can observe the effects of different sources and materials on the detected particle collisions. This can help students understand the properties of radioactivity and the behavior of different particles.

Additionally, experiments involving the determination of the type of particle being radiated can be conducted by observing whether the particle is absorbed or not. By placing different absorbers between the source and the probe, students can determine the properties of the emitted particles and gain a deeper understanding of radioactivity.

Lastly, experiments involving the determination of the geometric form of radioactivity emission can also be conducted using a geiger counter. By carefully measuring the detected particle collisions at different distances, students can gain insights into the spatial distribution of radioactivity. This can help students understand the fundamental principles of radioactivity and its applications in the real world.

A robotic arm of the texture analyzer applies the force necessary for the analysis. The robotic arm is coupled with a puncture or compression probe, depending on the required analysis. A platform holds the sample and supports the interaction of the probe with the selected fruit or vegetable. That way, the analytical signal is obtained. The signal is expressed as a force dependant on the time. That way, it is possible to correlate the graphics with various maturation states, and to conclude about the chemical transformations that affect the fruit or vegetable after the harvest.
