Wildan, Ardan; Yau, Chin Doong; Wijesinghe, Chamaka; Xiao, Kevin; Ng, Tuck Wah – Physics Teacher, 2022
The Van de Graaff (VDG) generator is ubiquitous in the physics laboratory, but the high-voltage discharges that emanate from it can cause user discomfort or damage to nearby electronics during experimentation. In this work, an augmented reality (AR) tool is developed to help students conduct the experiment safely. More specifically, it allows them…

Zheng, Yuan; Huang, Zewei; Yang, Yanbin – Physics Teacher, 2021
As intriguing optical phenomena that occur in nature, mirages are widely known and often mentioned in physics classes when introducing the basics of optics. In the atmosphere, a mirage occurs under the condition of vertical variations in air density, which are usually caused by a temperature gradient. The light rays are continuously refracted and…
