Overview

This lesson introduces a computer model that now includes the effect of warming up and cooling down the bike tire walls. They use this model to examine the relationships between speed of particles and the temperature of the gas as well as between temperature and pressure. Students use CODAP to collect data and then find a linear equation of the relationship between temperature and pressure. They use the equation to make predictions about what the pressure will be for temperature conditions.
