Abstract

Analogy is considered a helpful way to help students visualize abstract concepts and assimilate new knowledge to an existing structure of cognitive. This study examines the effectiveness of the teaching with pictorial analogy models on students achievement and its retention of Direct Current lesson. A quasi-experimental method with one group pretest and (immediate and delayed) posttest design was employed in this study. The subjects consisted of 35 twelfth-grade students of public senior school in Pontianak City enrolled in the first semester of academic year 2017/2018; they were determined by using intact group random sampling technique. The student participants received instructions of the three pictorial analogy models. A parallel pretest-posttest of achievement test consisted of 10 items of factual knowledge, 10 items of conceptual knowledge, and 3 items of procedural knowledge. The operationalization of the pictorial analogies in this study referred to Glynns syntaxes. Data analysis found that: (1) the increasing of factual knowledge is 30.2 % in immediate posttest and 21.6 % in delayed posttest; (2)the students have promoted a significant conceptual change ( = 54.28, p < 0.05); and (3) there is a significant difference between the immediate posttest and pretest in terms of procedural knowledge (t = 4.02; p < 0.05) with the ES index is 4.78. It is concluded that the use of pictorial analogy models is effective (in high category) to increase students achievement of Direct Current lesson and the emergence of their retention is significant partially and simultaneously. In using pictorial analogies, teachers are encouraged to consider many similar features with the target concepts.

Abstract

The mental models are internal representation possessed by students when learning a concept. This study is intended to explore students mental models on Heat and Temperature concept. This research was conducted on 11th grade students of Science program (N = 60) at one senior public school in Malang. Data were collected through open-ended questions and analyzed using the SSI method, which consisted of three levels of mental models. Based on the results, most of the students are still at the synthetic level. In addition, some differences of the students in visualizing the state of solid atoms during expansion, direction of heat conduction, and direction of heat convection. The future study is expected to explore the mental models of students in other topics of Physics education and make use of appropriate learning models to increase students mental models.

Abstract

Sawahlunto city is well-known for coal mining region. As in 2010, there have been at least 12 mining companies exploring coal resources in the region. As time passes, land cover conditions have gradually decreased due to mining activities. This region on which was originally covered by various vegetation and ecosystem have systematically transformed into open areas for coal mining. The use of remote sensing technology for land cover monitoring has been commonly well-developed in accordance with the need for improvement of detailed information about the changes of land use coverage. This study examines the land cover changes using supervised classification method based on Landsat data. The method focuses on four dominant classes of land cover in the region, namely forest, mining, settlement, and water resources. The classification processes were performed based on true-color composite satellite images. The results show that the overall accuracies of classification are 91.68 %, 92.49 %, 93.69 %, and 93.74 % in 2000, 2006, 2011, and 2016 respectively. It was also found that forest is the largest area in the coal mining area which, in some sense, tends to continuously decrease in terms of land cover in the last 15 years. The rate of forest area degradation achieved its maximum between 2006 and 2011.

Abstract

The ring model of the coupled oscillator has enormously studied from the perspective of quantum mechanics. The research efforts on this system contribute to fully grasp the concepts of energy transport, dissipation, among others, in mesoscopic and condensed matter systems. In this research, the dynamics of the quantum propagator for the ring of oscillators was analyzed anew. White noise analysis was applied to derive the quantum mechanical propagator for a ring of four harmonically coupled oscillators. The process was done after performing four successive coordinate transformations obtaining four separated Lagrangian of a one-dimensional harmonic oscillator. Then, the individual propagator was evaluated via white noise path integration where the full propagator is expressed as the product of the individual propagators. In particular, the frequencies of the first two propagators correspond to degenerate normal mode frequencies, while the other two correspond to non-degenerate normal mode frequencies. The full propagator was expressed in its symmetric form to extract the energy spectrum and the wave function.

Abstract

Automatitation method in defining the quality of CT image is needed to optimize CT Scan treatment planning. So, the optimization of treatment planning can also be done automatically. There are various methods proposed to define the quality of an image. The purpose of this study was to find the simple and precision method to define CT image. We compared the performance of Automated Noise Measurement (ANM) and Automated Universal Image Quality Index (UIQI). We also compared them with the Manual noise measurement method based on the level of convergence in homogeneous images. The first step of Automated Noise Measurement was to create binary density slice using threshold values. Then, a masked image was performed by masking the original image and binary image. The standard deviation of every pixel for a certain kernel size was calculated by using a sliding window operation. The fourth step was to make a noise histogram from the noise map and determine the final noise in the image as the histogram peak. Then this calculation was normalized by the peak of the Hounsfield Unit (HU) histogram. All these steps were done with various kernel sizes for different slices in-homogenous phantom. In the Automatic UIQI method, the steps in the ANM method are carried out until the masked image stage, then UIQI is calculated for the masked image. The results show that automatic UIQI was more convergence in defining image quality than manual noise measurement and automated noise measurement by the lowest standard deviation which was only 0.00032867.

Abstract

Time correlated single photon counter was design for measuring fluorescence lifetime of emitting materials. It was designed for photonics basic research and science that is usually done in a laboratory. Furthermore, time correlated single photon counter can be used to measure simple and more practical optical properties of materials, such as refractive index. However, since the system was not designed for this practical application, a simple setup modification and calculation is required. In this work, time correlated single photon counter is utilized to measure the refractive index of sodium chloride solutions. The measurement was done using simple time of flight calculation of each pulse of picosecond pulsed laser. Our measurement was done on different concentrations of sodium chloride that have different refractive indices. It was found that the measurement technique and calculation was able to produce consistent quantitative calculation of refractive indices.

Abstract

The amount of stress released by an earthquake can be calculated with a stress drop, the stress ratio before and after an earthquake where the stress accumulated in a fault or a subduction zone is immediately released during an earthquake. The purpose of this research is to calculate the amount of stress drop in faults and subduction in Maluku and Halmahera and their variations and relate them to the geological conditions in the area so that the tectonic characteristics in the area can be identified. This research employed mathematical analysis and the Nelder Mead Simplex nonlinear inversion methods. The results show that Maluku and Halmahera are the area with complex tectonic conditions and large earthquake impacts. The Maluku sea earthquake generated a stress drop of 0.81 MPa with a reverse fault mechanism in the zone of subduction, while for the Halmahera earthquake the stress drop value was 52.72 MPa, a typical strike-slip mechanism in the fault zone. It can be concluded that there is a difference in the stress drop between the subduction and fault zones; the stress drop in the fault was greater than that in the subduction zone due to different rock structure and faulting mechanisms as well as differences in the move slip rate that plays a role in the process of holding out the stress on a rock. This information is very important to know the amount of pressure released from the earthquake which has a very large impact as part of disaster mitigation measures.

Abstract

The Q-deformed D-dimensional Klein Gordon equation with Kratzer potential is solved by using Hypergeometric method in the case of exact spin symmetry. The linear radial momentum of D-dimensional Klein Gordon equation is disturbed by the presence of the quadratic radial posisiton. The Klein-Gordon D-dimensional equation is reduced to one-dimensional Schrodinger like equation with variable substitution. The solution of the D-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation is determined in the form of a general equation of the Hypergeometry function using the Kratzer potential variable and the quantum deformation variable. From this equation, relativistic energy and wave function are determined. In addition, the relativistic energy equation can be used to calculate numerical energy levels for diatomic particles (CO, NO, O2) using Matlab R2013a software. The results obtained show that the q-deformed quantum parameters, quantum numbers and dimensions affect the value of relativistic energy for zero-pin particles. The value of energy increases with increasing value of quantum number n, q-deformed parameters, and d-dimensional parameters. Of the three parameters, q-deformed parameter is the most dominant to give change in energy value; the increasing q-deformed parameter causes the energy value increases significantly compared to the d-dimensional parameter and quantum numbers n.

Abstract

Carbon nanodots (Cdots) have many unique properties such as luminescence that can be utilized in various fields. The purposes of this study are to synthesize Cdots from kangkung (Ipomoea aquatica) through frying and roasting techniques and compare the optical properties of the Cdots using UV-Vis, PL, and FTIR. Three stages of synthesizing process of Cdots, i.e.: preparing the kangkung powder (root, stem, leaf) and synthesizing the Cdots through frying and roasting techniques. Each part (root, stem, and leaf) was heated in an oven at 250 oC for 2 hours and mashed into powder. The frying method was done by frying 15 g of the powder in 120 ml oil for 5 minutes at 88 oC, filtered, and dissolved in n-hexane. In addition, the roasting method was done by frying the powder without oil as much as 15 g for 5 minutes, dissolved in 120 ml of distilled water, and then filtered. The UV-Vis characterization showed one absorbance peak for Cdots via frying and roasting techniques at 293 nm to 296 nm and 262 nm to 282 nm, respectively. The Cdots through frying and roasting techniques produce red and green luminescence, respectively. The FTIR characterization showed the presence of C=C and C=O functional groups, which are the core and surface state of the Cdots by frying technique, while the samples via roasting technique showed only the core. It can be concluded that the Cdots samples obtained from frying and roasting methods have different optical properties. The frying method produces Cdots with longer wavelength at the absorbance peak in the UV-Vis test compared to the roasting method. Moreover, the frying and roasting methods produce different color luminescence.

Abstract

Scientific creativity and responsibility are believed to be key factors for overcoming increasingly complex real-life problems faced by students; but both competencies are not trained in school. Therefore, this research aims to describe the effectiveness of creative responsibility based learning (CRBL) to increase students responsibility and scientific creativity on physics learning in senior high school. This research used one group pretest-posttest design involving 66 students of two senior high schools in Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, Indonesia. The data collection was conducted by using responsibility observation emphasizing on participatory, cooperation, delivering an opinion, and leadership. Additionally, data were gained through scientific creativity test emphasizing on problem finding, product improvement, scientific imagination, scientific problem solving, and creative product design. The data analysis was done through qualitative descriptive, n-gain, and paired t-test. The results showed      (1) students responsibility for each meeting is in good criteria, and (2) there is a significant increase on students scientific creativity at α = 5 %, with n-gain constitutes moderate category. Thus, the CRBL is believed to be effective to increase students responsibility and scientific creativity in physics learning
