Five kinetic theory tutorials with curricular materials, Tracker visualizations and Tracker data files produced by the National Space Academy, UK Space Agency, and the European Space Agency. These videos show UK astronaut Tim Peake doing experiments in space demonstrating energy and kinetic theory concepts using two masses oscillating attached to a spring, and a clear box containing plastic beads to represent particles.
The zip files on this site contain the videos and the Tracker experiment (*.trk) file. To open the Tracker experiment file, you must first download and install Tracker from http://physlets.org/tracker/.
