    3-075-RLCCircuits-ModelingScenario
    We introduce the basics of RLC circuits, defining the terms of inductance, resistance, and capacitance in a circuit in which an induced voltage created a current running through these devices.

    4-060-CircuitTuner-ModelingScenario
    We present essential definitions and laws for the study of simple RLC electrical circuits and build a differential equation model using these notions. We describe how such a circuit can be used to tune a radio to a certain input frequency.

    2018-Chris McCarthy-Newtons Law of Cooling
    You have hot water (initial temperature ) in a container, say a cup or glass. The temperature in the room is cooler, say a constant degrees Celsius. Come up with a differential equation that models the water's temperature.

    1-058-WaterClocks-ModelingScenario
    We apply Torricelli's Law to the task of building a water clock in which the height of the water in a container falls at a constant rate when the container has a hole in the bottom to let the water flow out.

    1-064-TorricelliBox-ModelingScenario
    The time it takes a column of water to empty and the time it takes the same volume of column of water with a box (various sizes) submerged in the column of water are compared through modeling with Torricelli's Law.

    1-079-HomeHeating-ModelingScenario
    This project concerns using Newton's Law of Cooling to model the heating of a house. In particular, if one is going away for awhile, is it more economical to leave a house at a desired temperature or reheat it upon return?
