You can use the standard Voltage Probe (VP-BTA), to do Ohm's Law experiments. There are two things you need to watch out for, and for these reasons we recommend the Differential Voltage Probe (DVP-BTA), or Go Direct® Voltage Probe (GDX-VOLT), for...
The output of the Vernier Power Amplifier (PAMP), is bipolar. The negative terminal is not quite at ground, because of the presence of a small current sense resistor. Current through this resistor is used to report the current delivered to the PAMP l...
Special caution should be taken when operating at greater than ±20 volts in a situation where significant current can be supplied.
Many solar panel projects require measurement of more than 10 volts and this concept is often useful for these proj...
The key difference is that the black leads on the simple Voltage Probe (VP-BTA) are connected to ground of the interface when used. That means that if you use two of these voltage probes at the same time, the two black leads are connected to a common...
Similarities
Detect the presence of a source of radiation
Monitor counts/interval (rate) as different thicknesses of a particular type of shielding are placed between the Geiger-Mueller tube of the Radiation Monitor and a beta or gamma source

Our lab books are sold a little differently than traditional textbooks. Each of our lab books comes with a site license that allows you to make as many copies as you like for your school or college department. Because of this, only one copy of the b...
No.
This question comes up because users might be tempted to try to do the PID Ping Pong Ball Levitation experiment, from Engineering Projects with NI LabVIEW and Vernier (EPV, discontinued), using a DCU instead of a power amplifier to power the f...
Advanced Physics with Vernier — Beyond Mechanics (PHYS-ABM) includes a video for its Coulomb's Law activity. The video included with the book can no longer be opened in Logger Pro for Windows due to changes in the software.

You likely are not producing enough voltage with your turbine design. The color of an LED determines the minimum voltage needed for it to emit light. This has to do with the colors of light having different amounts of energy. A colored LED is not a w...
