Product Information

Appropriate for Grades 9-12
In this activity, students will gain an understanding of the mechanism of plate tectonics and sea floor spreading. Students will first investigate the magnetism of rocks and minerals as well as a bar magnet. Then, they will use a PASCO magnetic field sensor to measure the simulated magnetism of the bands of rock on an ocean floor, then predict the position of a mid-ocean ridge on a map. This activity can be completed in 2 50-minute lab sessions.
Includes instructions. Requires 1 sensor and 1 USB Link or 1 Xplorer Datalogger for each group of students. If your computer does not have 2 USB ports, then you will need a USB 4-Port Hub.
