Joule's Experiment as a Probe into Micro World

Abstract

Real remote laboratory experiment on Joule´s experimentation has both the historical and pedagogical importance in the building of the bridge between macro and micro world. Dissipative forces and their work as a transformation of the macroscopic mechanical energy into the energy of thermal movement are decisive in the study of mechanical phenomena of real world. The remote experiment should both qualitatively and quantitatively describe the transformation of macroscopic kinetic energy into heat and show the quantities, active in the transformation. The remote experiment represents a new generation of ISES remote experiments. The measureserver is equipped with a new diagnostics block, enabling diagnosis information on remote experiments both for the client and the provider.
