Jumping Motion of Gourami Fish Using Tracker Software as a Mechanical Energy Conservation Practicum

Abstract

One of the phenomena of gourami fish is the jumping motion. In analyzing the fish motion, errors are often experienced in observations, tend to be subjective or take a long time. An alternative software to analyze the fish motion is the Tracker software. The study aims to analyze the video of the Gourami fish motion phenomenon using Tracker software in the mechanical energy conservation practicum. This type of research is experimental research. Based on the results, the greater the mass of the fish indicates the greater the kinetic energy and potential energy in the motion of the fish. Kinetic energy depends on the mass and speed of the Gourami fish jumping. While the potential energy depends on the height of the Gourami fish when jumping. It is also affected by the fish's mass and the acceleration of gravity. The video analysis of the motion of the jumping gourami using Tracker can be used in science learning, especially in physics practicum about the law of conservation of mechanical energy

Hamster (Cricetinae) Motion Assisted by Video Tracker Application on Motion Materials in Junior High School

“…The method in this study is a direct experiment using video tracker analysis. Tracker can be used in science learning, especially in physics practicum about the law of conservation of mechanical energy (Ilma et al, 2022). The subject is a hamster that moves in a rolling wheel taken from a youtube video.…”

Analysis of Restitution Coefficient Value on the Ball Using Tracker Software by Utilizing Video Based Laboratory

“…This research is important to carry out because research using video analytics as a learning method is needed, not limited to constructivism, direction, and direct instruction (Ilma et al, 2022). Habibbulloh et al ( 2014) also thinks that the most suitable topic for tracker software is physics material related to kinematics and motion phenomena in general, including the coefficient of restitution.…”

Free Fall Motion Learning Design with Tracker Software to Improve Graphic Literacy

“…This Tracker software allows students to analyze the motion of objects in a video by making traces following the motion of objects in the video. Objects dropped from above will fall to the earth because the object gets gravitational acceleration (g) whose direction always goes to the center of the earth (Bara, 2021;Ilma et al, 2022). Free fall motion is one of the natural phenomena studied in physics, the movement of objects in free fall is the simplest and most common example of motion with changing speed (Agustinasari & Sumarni, 2021;Atani et al, 2019).…”
