Abstract

This study aims to
devise a computer-aided measurement system for students taking a physics course
in secondary schools and universities to use in their laboratory applications.
Arduino Uno development board is used in the system structure of the system.
The free fall time of steel balls of different size released from the
adjustable height is measured and shown on the LCD display, also observed in
the software on the host computer. The designed device has electromagnet to
hold the steel ball, and LDR light sensor and laser diode to measure the time.
The transfer of the results to the host computer is carried out by the Wi-Fi
module. A free fall test, comprised of bodies with four different weight
released from six different heights, has been performed in order to test the
measurement accuracy of the test set. The time is measured in milliseconds for
each free fall test. 24 different results obtained from the tests are compared
with the results of the theoretical calculations. In accord with this result,
there is approximately 1 millisecond difference in accuracy. In addition, the
system is more advantageous in terms of multiple measurements, Wi-Fi, and price
when compared to other free fall test sets.

ARDUINO İLE BİLGİSAYAR KONTROLLÜ SERBEST DÜŞME DENEY SİSTEMİ

Abstract

Bu uygulama çalışmasında ortaöğretim kurumları ve üniversitelerde
fizik dersini alan öğrencilerin laboratuvar uygulamalarında kullanabilecekleri
bilgisayar destekli bir ölçüm sistemi tasarlanmıştır. Sistemin donanım
yapısında Arduino Uno geliştirme kartı kullanılmıştır. Ayarlanabilir
yükseklikten bırakılan farklı boyutlardaki çelik topun serbest düşme zamanı
ölçülüp, sonuç LCD ekranda gösterilmektedir. Aynı zamanda ölçülen değerler ana
bilgisayardaki yazılımda da görülmektedir. Tasarlanan cihazda; çelik topu
tutmak için elektro mıknatıs, süreyi ölçmek için LDR ışık sensörü ve lazer
diyot kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca ölçülen değerlerin ana bilgisayara aktarılma
işlemi wifi modülü ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Deney setinin ölçüm hassasiyetinin
testi için 6 farklı yükseklikten ve 4 farklı ağırlıktaki cisim ile serbest
düşme deneyi yapılmıştır. Her düşme deneyi için milisaniye biriminde süre
ölçülmektedir. Deney sonucunda elde edilen 24 farklı süre, teorik
hesaplamalarından çıkan sonuçlar ile kıyaslanmıştır. Bu sonuca göre doğruluk
hassasiyetinde yaklaşık 1 milisaniyelik farklılık bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca sistem
diğer serbest düşme deney setleri ile kıyaslandığında çoklu ölçüm, wifi ve
fiyat konusunda avantajlı olduğu görülmektedir.
