Student Workbook Physics Labs with Computers, Vol. 1012-07000A Tutorial Activities: Rotary Motion Sensor• In ScienceWorkshop, click-and-drag the ‘digital sensor plug’ icon to the Channel 1 icon inthe Experiment Setup window, select the name of the sensor from the list of sensors andclick ‘OK’ to return to the Experiment Setup window. Result: The sensor setup windowopens.Click ‘OK’ to return to the Experiment Setup window. Result: The sensor’s icon appearsbelow Channels 1 and 2 of the interface.Set up a Graph display of Angular Position versus Time.• In DataStudio, double-click the ‘Graph’ icon in the Displays list. Result: The Graphdisplay automatically shows ‘Angular Position’ versus ‘Time’.• In ScienceWorkshop, click-and-drag the ‘Graph’ displayicon to the sensor’s icon in the Experiment Setup window.Result: A list of calculations opens. Select ‘AngularPosition’ from the list and then click ‘Display’. Result: TheGraph display shows ‘Angular Position’ versus ‘Time’.Start recording data• In DataStudio, click the ‘Start’ button ( ). InScienceWorkshop, click the ‘REC’ button ( ).• Rotate the pulley back-and-forth several times (or roll the sensorback-and-forth along a flat surface several times.) Watch theresults in the Graph.Stop recording data• Click ‘Stop’ to end data recording.©1999 PASCO scientific A - 39
