This book was released on 2024-05-31 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interesting crisp book "Physics Experiments Using Arduino" is a labour of love of Professor H. K. Sahjwani and reflects his keen desire to take Arduino to School Students and teachers and to reveal to them how this platform can be used by schools for learning Physics. Book is an amalgam of two aspects: i) Arduino as a toolbox (using C as programming language) and ii) Physics experiments. Author has followed an approach which makes it a self-learning resource for students, with teacher playing the role of a facilitator. As the National President of the Indian Association of Physics Teachers (IAPT) I have been a witness to this approach during number of workshops which Prof Sahjwani conducted in both online and hybrid modes under the auspices of Delhi and Haryana Regional Council of IAPT (RC-01), felicitated by Prof. Seema Vats President RC-01, Prof. OP Sharma and Prof. V.P. Srivastava. Converting those experiences of the workshop into this book extends the reach of those workshops to thousands of willing teachers and students across the country. This is indeed commendable and is part of the vision of IAPT to facilitate Physics resource generation, using the latest technologies which can be used effectively in Physics classrooms and laboratories in schools and colleges. IAPT has an academic agenda in which this book fits in precisely because of real time experience which Arduino provides with wonderful visualisation through its interface via a laptop or a PC. Through Arduino IDE app. One of the challenging tasks in learning physics is to relate theory with experiments, with the availability of cutting-edge technologies, it requires vision of a willing teacher to do something more for the students, this is where this book speaks volumes of the effort and vision of Professor Sahjwani an acclaimed Physics Teacher and Innovator. Only a decade back we would never ever have hoped such things coming in the hands of a school student. All the physics experiments given in the book have been carried out hands on, using the draft copy of the book to make it an experience without tears, encouraging learners to use Arduino as an exploratory tool for exploring physics. It also has a potential for students to do independent student projects mentored by teachers. I am happy that IAPT has benefitted a lot as a result of this work. I would like to profusely congratulate Professor Hari Sahjwani for adding this valuable learning resource to the arsenal of students, providing them an edge in physical, computational, and experimental thinking. I wish readers of this book a wonderful learning experience. Prof. PK Ahluwalia President Indian Association of Physics Teachers
