The light energy reaches the solar cell and is converted into electricity by the photovoltaic effect.The solar cell converts light energy into electricity. The amount of energy is directly related to the intensity of light that strikes the cell.

Online labs provide your students with the possibility to conduct scientific experiments in an online environment. Remotely-operated labs (remote labs) offer an opportunity to experiment with real equipment from remote locations. Virtual labs simulate the scientific equipment. Data sets present data from already performed lab experiments. Please use the filters on the right to find appropriate online labs for your class. Labs can be combined with dedicated Apps to create Inquiry Learning Spaces (ILSs).
If you are looking for online labs especially suitable for the curricula of Benin, Kenya or Nigeria, please visit our Collections page.
If you select labs in English, the descriptions on this website will still be displayed in English. However, when you include the lab in an ILS and change the language setting of the ILS to English, the lab will be displayed in English within the ILS.

You will see that there is a difference between reality and theory.
Study of the heat propagation means by convection and radiation. When the lamp is switched on, it transfers heat to the surrounding environment primarily through thermal radiation. Then, the flow of air forced by external processes diffuses heat by natural convection.
Through this remote lab students can experiment what happens with two rays of light passing through a biconvex, biconcave or convex lens. They can control the lens at any time.
With this remote experiment students will understand the principle of objects floating and sinking in liquids, study the Archimedes Principle – displacement of liquids by floated objects, weight in liquids, buoyancy force.
Diffraction of light (i.e. the deviation of the linear propagation) and interference (i.e. the coherent superposition of light waves results in intensity maxima and minima) represent central phenomena of wave optics. Moreover, both phenomena are playing an essential role in techniques (e.g.
The Radioactivity Lab examines the intensity of radiation over distance, demonstrating the effects of the inverse square law.
With this lab we can study the second Newton's law and force decomposition. An inclined plane, also known as a ramp, is a flat supporting surface tilted at an angle, with one end higher than the other, used as an aid for raising or lowering a load.
The photoelectric effect is playing a major role in the development of quantum physics. Here one can investigate the energy of electrons which are released by irradiating light on metals. These observations are leading to the particle model of light (light as a photon).
The aim of this experiment, which is important as an introduction to quantum physics, is to understand the wave properties of the electron postulated by de Broglie as well as to model solid-state crystal structures microscopically.
