...------------------------------------------------- Experiment 9 – Conservation of Linear Momnetum [Document subtitle] March 29, 2016 Engineering Physics 150 March 29, 2016 Engineering Physics 150 Objectives: The objectives of this laboratory experiment is to investigate the velocities and momentm of two carts before and after various types of collisions. Theory: * When objects collide and assuming there are no external forces are acting on the colliding objects, the principle of the conservation of momentum always holds. * For a two-object collision, momentum conservation is stated mathematically by the equation: * PTotali =PTotalf * m1v1i+m2v2i=m1v1f+m2v2f * When working with a complete inelastic collision, the two objects stick together after the collision, and the momentum conservation equation becomes: * PTotali =PTotalf * m1v1i+m2v2i=(m1+m2)vf * During this experiment, photogates will measure the motion of two carts before and after elastic collision. The cart masses can be measured by using a simple mass scale. * Then, total momentum of the two carts before collision will be compared to the total momentum of the two carts after collision. Equipment: 850 Universal | Dynamic Track | Two dynamic carts | Two picket fences | Mounting brackets | Mass Balance | Mass Bar | Two Photogates | Data: Part A – Elastic Collision with approx. equal masses: Trial | V1 i (m/s) | V2 i (m/s) | V1 f (m/s) | V2 f (m/s)...

Survey of the Sciences Week 2 Assignment 2 – Lab 2.1.1 – States of Matter Date of assignment: 12/18/2013 Date turned in: 01/15/2014 Liquid at over 650K | Liquid under 650K | The molecules appear to be faster and more spread apart | Molecules are even faster, mostly touching and mostly compact | Gas at over 1540K | Gas at under 300K | Faster and mostly apart and randomly touching | Slower, more clustered and in ring shapes and mostly touching with less space apart | Solid at 350 – 360K and over 600K | Solid at under 10K | Moving from one position to another at accelerated pace but mostly touching at an even faster rate and mostly spread apart | Less movement, but still clustered and connected in ring forms | Solid is at 157K and appears to be moving slower and less close but compact in rings. Liquid is at 328K and appears to be closely bonded but moving around much faster. Gas is at 809K and appears to be moving much faster and occupying more space than solid and liquid. But when the temperature is reduced to about 97K the rate of movement decreases and the molecules get more clustered and compact, the reaction in liquid is almost the same as gas when the temperature is reduced to the same 97K. The reaction in solid liquid and gas stages of water are almost constant at a reduced temperature of 97K. Only the solid state resembles itself in heated and cooled stages. The others have different resemblance. In...

...Optical Pumping Lab Report [Basic Principle] Before discussing the optical pumping, we have to mention the energy levels of the atom and their splitting due to the interaction between the spin of electron, orbital angular momentum of electron and spin of nuclei. We denote them with S, L, and I respectively. And the total angular momentum of electron is denoted by J, (Grand) total angular momentum is denoted by F. Therefore we will have to deal with the LS interaction, IJ interaction and later the interaction between the Grand total angular momentum and external magnetic field. A very schematic picture of the energy levels of 87Rb under a weak external field is shown in Fig. 1. After applying an weak external magnetic field on the atom, the formally degenerated energy level with same F will further split into 2F+1 sublevels, denoted by mF which is the projection of Grand total angular momentum to the direction of external field B0. Fig. 1 Until now we haven't mention any thing about the optical pumping. Now we have the atom well prepared, the only thing we have to do is to illuminate the vapor of Rubidium with some well tuned highly polarized light. Well tuned means the spectrum of the incident light is better to be narrow, this can be achieved by using a interference filter to screen out the unwanted light and let only the D1 line pass, namely when this light illuminated on the Rb vapor, only transitions between sublevels originated from 5S1/2 and sublevels originated...

...UNIVERSITY OF AUCKLAND DEPARTMENT OF ENGINEERING ENCI790 RESEARCH PROPOSAL: “An evaluation and survey of methods available for converting biomass into fuels” Candidate: Surya Sappa Supervisors: Professor John Chen Doctor Robert Kirkpatrick ABSTRACT Biofuel technologies have become more and more prominent in addressing the need for a continuous supply of fuels. Biofuels are fuels that are produced through the biological process of converting biomass/biowaste into a fuel source to reduce the negative impacts faced by fossil fuels combustion (reduction in greenhouse gasses) and availability of supply. Biofuels can be derived from a wide variety of biomass, and are categorised into four generations: First generation biofuels are made from sugars, starches, oil, and animal fats that are converted into fuel using already-known processes or technologies. These fuels include biodiesel, bioalcohols, ethanol, and biogases, like methane captured from landfill decomposition. Second generation biofuels are made from non-food crops or agricultural waste, especially ligno-cellulosic biomass like switch-grass, willow, or wood chips. Third generation biofuels are made from algae or other quickly growing biomass sources. Fourth generation biofuels are made from specially engineered plants or biomass that may have higher energy yields or lower barriers to cellulosic breakdown or are able to be grown on non-agricultural land or bodies of water...

...Steering Behaviors For Autonomous Characters Craig W. Reynolds Sony Computer Entertainment America 919 East Hillsdale Boulevard Foster City, California 94404 craig_reynolds@playstation.sony.com http://www.red.com/cwr/ cwr@red.com Keywords: Animation Techniques, Virtual/Interactive Environments, Games, Simulation, behavioral animation, autonomous agent, situated, embodied, reactive, vehicle, steering, path planning, path following, pursuit, evasion, obstacle avoidance, collision avoidance, flocking, group behavior, navigation, artificial life, improvisation. Abstract This paper presents solutions for one requirement of autonomous characters in animation and games: the ability to navigate around their world in a life-like and improvisational manner. These “steering behaviors” are largely independent of the particulars of the character’s means of locomotion. Combinations of steering behaviors can be used to achieve higher level goals This paper divides motion behavior into three levels. It will focus on the (For example: get from here to there while avoiding obstacles, follow this corridor, join that group of characters...) middle level of steering behaviors, briefly describe the lower level of locomotion, and touch lightly on the higher level of goal setting and strategy. Introduction Autonomous characters are a type of autonomous agent intended for use in computer animation and interactive media such as games and virtual reality. These agents represent a This stands...

The project is focused in estimating the position of the phone inside a building where the GPS signal is bad or unavailable. The approach is sensor-fusion: by using data from the device’s different sensors, such as accelerometer, gyroscope and wireless adapter, the position is determined. The results show that the technique is promising for future handheld indoor navigation systems that can be used in malls, museums, large office buildings, hospitals, etc. Keywords: Sensor fusion, accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, INS, GPS, Wi-Fi, indoor navigation, smartphone, Android...
