Students can study the dependence of the mixing of two gasses on temperature and pressure. This material includes several virtual labs for students to perform. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74562 Includes teacher generated activities. A section of the coast line is randomly given an angle (two lines), resulting in a smooth coastline gradually getting rougher and more fractal each click. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74382 Elasticity = Responsiveness: the elasticity of demand tells us how much the quantity demanded changes when the price changes. Read the lecture, then work the problems (Java applets tell you if you are right or wrong) http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74563 Grow trees (green dots), then start fire (red dots), and watch destroyed trees (black dots) form a trail behind the fire. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74556 Flip coins to see if you can beat the odds. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74554 Throw darts at a circle, get the ratio inside to outside circle, and estimate pi. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74368 Watch as a stick is inserted into a Necker Cube from a variety of directions. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74557 Take random steps left or right and see how far you get. You won't go far very often. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=74404 How waves reveal the atomic structure of crystals
