Mayer, V. V.; Varaksina, E. I. – Physics Education, 2020
To study the absorption of ultrasound in plexiglas we propose to use gadgets that are available to each student: an ultrasound humidifier, a liquid crystal display of a pad, a polaroid analyzer, a digital camera, a multimeter with thermocouple, and a stopwatch. These devices allow us to visualize a region in plexiglas where ultrasound is absorbed…

Mayer, V. V.; Varaksina, E. I. – Physics Education, 2017
The paper presents a series of experiments that demonstrate the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. These make it possible to determine the direction of the induced current and so confirm Lenz's Law. The simple experiments can be reproduced in a school laboratory and can be recommended for students' project activity.

Mayer, V. V.; Varaksina, E. I. – Physics Education, 2015
The fundamentals of classical mechanics are the foundation of more complicated and ingenious physical theories. Therefore, an educational experiment revealing to students the physical nature of mechanical phenomena is important. The effectiveness of this experiment manifoldly increases if students not only perform it by themselves, but also make…
