Abstract

This research aims to determine the value of the Earth's gravitational acceleration (g) using the mathematical pendulum swing method with an unweighted linear regression approach, weighted linear regression, and the 4th-order Runge-Kutta numerical method. The data used are the results of measuring the swing period of the pendulum for various lengths of string. The analysis was carried out by calculating the average value of gravitational acceleration using multiple methods. The results show that weighted linear regression provides more consistent and accurate estimates than unweighted linear regression, with a high coefficient of determination (R²) value. The Runge-Kutta numerical method is also used to predict swing periods with a more in-depth mathematical approach, producing values ​​supporting experimental data trends. Overall, this research makes an average value of gravitational acceleration of around 9.11 m/s², close to the expected theoretical value. These findings show that the mathematical pendulum swing method can be used effectively to measure the Earth's gravitational acceleration with sufficient accuracy and provide an essential contribution in the context of physics education regarding the application of basic principles in physics experiments.

Abstract

The use of technology is a solution to overcome problems in physics learning. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using Smartphone-based Phyphox in improving students' creative thinking skills. The design used in this research is a nonequivalent pre-test and post-test control group design. This study used a purposive sampling technique to get two groups. The statistical analysis used was independent sample t-test. The results of the analysis showed that there was an effect of using Smartphone-based Phyphox in improving students' creative thinking skills, so it was effective in the learning process. In general, this research can contribute to the field of education, especially physics learning, to optimize the use of technology as a learning medium. This learning strategy allows students to participate directly in proving the concept of the material. In addition, this model can be an alternative to active learning in improving students' creative thinking.

Abstract

In November 2024, the eruption of Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki on Flores Island, Indonesia, resulted in the release of substantial volcanic aerosols, including sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and volcanic debris. These aerosols impacted the environment, health, and aviation activities. The objective of this investigation is to examine the temporal and spatial dynamics of volcanic aerosols by employing the Absorbing Aerosol Index (AAI) in conjunction with TROPOMI satellite data (Sentinel-5P). The methodologies employed are as follows: spatial-temporal analysis with Google Earth Engine (GEE), aerosol dispersion simulation with the HYSPLIT model, and data processing with the Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP). The results indicated a substantial increase in volcanic activity from November 8th to 11th, 2024, as evidenced by an ash column that reached a height of as much as 10,945 m. The distribution of aerosols was influenced by atmospheric dynamics, with high concentrations observed in the vicinity of Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki and extending to the east-southeast. Although the level of volcanic activity declined in late November, aerosol concentrations were still detected in the atmosphere. This investigation offers critical insights into the distribution of volcanic aerosols during the eruption and its effects on disaster risk mitigation and air quality. It is anticipated that these discoveries will facilitate the implementation of more sustainable and effective risk management strategies for volcanic eruptions.
