Magnetic Field Mental Representations of 15-16 Year Old Students
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN PHYSICS - Year 0, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The study of students mental representations of Natural Sciences concepts and phenomena constitutes a central part of Physics Education research, as they play a decisive role in teaching. In the study presented here, we investigate 112 15-16 years old students mental representations of the magnetic field, after they were taught about it in school. The empirical data was gathered through an interview using 3 tasks which involved the evaluation of actual or hypothetical situations. The research data included mental representations that cause difficulty in the comprehension of the properties of the magnetic field.

On The Stability Problem of Quadratic Functional Equations in 2-Banach Spaces
In this paper, we investigate the stability problem in the spirit of Hyers-Ulam, Rassias and Gavruta for the quadratic functional equation: f(2x + y) + f(2x - y) = 2f(x + y) + 2f(x - y) + 4f(x) - 2f(y) in 2-Banach spaces...
Effect of the structural changes on the mechanical properties of the sintered films
Polycrystalline films of tin telluride were prepared by sintering technique. The structural investigation of the films with different thicknesses enables to determine lattice parameter, crystallite size and strain existi...
