Yes. To make a map of data collected with Vernier sensors using Google My Maps, follow these steps.
1. Begin with a file that has columns of latitude, longitude, site names, and sensor data.
2. Export the file as a csv (comma separated values) to a ...
Vernier rarely discontinues items, but in August 2016 we made the difficult decision to stop carrying the Watts Up Pro. The manufacturer had become unreliable and could not provide products to us. The issue was getting worse as time progressed, and w...
In working with the KidWind organization, we developed kits that are as inexpensive as possible. The kits contain the most popular configurations of the parts needed to teach the concepts of renewable energy. In many cases, we do sell parts individua...
Yes, salinity can be calculated from the chloride ion concentration using Go Direct® Chloride Ion-Selective Electrode (GDX-CL) or Chloride Ion-Selective Electrode (CL-BTA) using the following equation:

This photogate supports auto-ID
Vernier Photogate (VPG-BTD)
The Vernier Photogate (shipped since mid-June 2003) has the necessary technology for auto-ID. It can most easily be identified by the white BTD port on the arm of the photogate. (...
Yes, a Vernier photogate and Vernier Time of Flight Pad can be used together to measure the acceleration due to gravity.
You will calculate the acceleration due to gravity using the standard kinematics equation h = 1/2gt^2,
where h is the height, g ...
