... Lab Report—Momentum Lab Survey Physical Science 09/09/2014 Abstract This experiment helped validate the law of conservation of momentum. The test was done by conducting two experiments with car A and car B, car A’s mass being known and car B’s mass unknown. Experiment A was done by sticking the cars in the center of the track and setting off the puncher then recording the car velocity. Experiment B was done by placing car B in front of the second photogate and car A at the start of the track, again the trigger of car A was set off and it collided with car B and the car velocity was recorded. Our results show momentum and kinematics methods show highly accurate results. Introduction Newton’s 3rd Law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. There were two experiments conducted in order to validate the law of momentum conservation. This law states that when there is a collision of two objects the total momentum of the two before the collision should be equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the impact. Materials * Car track with slots * 2 rolling cars * 2 Photogates * Weights * Data Acquisition Board * Computer with measurement software * 2 picket fences * Ruler * Balance scale Procedure In order to perform the experiment the car track and balance scale were checked in order to make sure they were well-adjusted so that the results were accurate. Next car A’s mass was...

...in the conversion of Chemistry from a qualitative to a quantitative science. Some of his many contributions to Science include; the first chemistry book, extensive list of elements and naming Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. Lavoisier made a vast mark on the world of Science resulting in advancements in better understanding the natural world. Lavoisier was born in Paris, France on August 26, 1743 to a wealthy Paris family. His father Jean-Antoine Lavoisier, was a Parisian lawyer in the Paris Parliament. He was married to Émilie Punctis, the daughter of an affluent family due to their butchery business. His mother died at the age of 5 and left him a large amount of riches. Through the ages 11 and 18 he attended school at Marzarin College, here he studied the general subjects. During his final two years he studied the sciences in depth, his interest in science was encouraged by geologist Jean-Étienne Guettard. This was a professor whom he had gotten close to, later on he would go on to collaborate with on a geological survey. Lavoisier was always interested in Science and Mathematics but instead influenced by his father he followed his family’s wishes and began his career in the study of Law. At age 21, after studying law for two years he obtained a bachelor’s degree in 1763 and a year later his license to practice as a lawyer. Although he decided not to do so and finally went after to pursue his passion of science. Lavoisier began studying astronomy, geology and botany under the...

...|Lesson Synopsis: | This unit develops an understanding of electrostatics by the use of demonstrations, simulations, and modeling. The general theme is that the current model of matter consisting of electrically neutral atoms composed of charged particles is integral to the understanding of electrical forces. The lesson begins with traditional activities of charging objects by friction and comparing electrostatic forces to magnetostatic forces. The traditional experiments are explained in terms of the model of an atom, and the “attract and repel force rules” are explored and expanded. Devices to create, store, and measure charge are utilized in experiments. The formal theory of Coulomb’s law is introduced, and problems are assigned utilizing that theory. Elements of the historical development of electrostatics and planetary model of the atom are researched, and students have an assignment describing contributions of historically important scientists. Additional concepts of electric fields, potential difference, and properties of conductors and insulators are developed through experiment, demonstration, and discussion. TEKS: |P.5 |The student knows the nature of forces in the physical world. The student is expected to: | |P.5A |Research and describe the historical development of...

...Simple Harmonic Motion Aston University Engineering and Applied Science – Physics Lab Report 01/11/2014 Determination by simple harmonic motion of the acceleration due to gravity Introduction: A system undertaking simple harmonic motion (SHM) can be restrained very accurately. The period of the SHM depends both on the mass of the system and the strength of the force tending to restore the system to its equilibrium state). Oscillations are a common part of life, for instance the vibrations of a musical instrument which helps make sounds or the foundations of a car suspension which are assisted by oscillations. The main aims of this experiment was to determine if the oscillation of a mass which hung vertically from a spring; this oscillating system was used to measure the acceleration of earth due to gravity and to determine the accuracy of experimental results precisely. (http://www.pgccphy.net/1020/phy1020.pdf Theory: | | | Acceleration due to gravity The value of 9.8m/s/s acceleration is given to a free falling object, directing downwards towards Earth. Any object moving solely under the influence of gravity is known as acceleration of gravity and this vital quantity is denoted by Physicians as the symbol g.

...Research We received a task which was to investigate science at work. This would vary from many different fields in science meaning that there are many different options which are available to us across the U.K. Due to this, we decided to narrow the search to local companies so that finding information from them was easier to attain due to them being easily accessible. So, to do narrow the companies to make it easier to find the companies and group them; 1. Firstly, before anything, sat with my peers and teachers and came up with different sectors of what companies would have aspects of sciences which are used and then we created the groups to specific aspects of sciences such as Health, Food, farming, education, manufacturing etc. We chose these types of sectors due to them being specific to a type of science which would split the companies due to the different uses of what the comp 2. .anies focus on. As we created the groups, we made sure that our groups were such of those that can be linked with each other. 3. After doing so, we then brainstormed on what the company types would fit under the categories we created. This was done on a mind map so that we could see the groups and what type of company or what the company specializes in would be visible to us after we had found the types of companies we were looking for, we could then find the companies that were close to us. We were looking for the companies that were near us due to them being easily accessible...

...that up because when it impacts, it creates a huge explosion, rather than the dirt or displaced earth that would be sent into the air. Not to mention, the fireman that was there on impact, was obviously still able to drive his car even though the meteor basically destroyed it, I mean, that is totally plausible, right? Now, when David Duchovny and Orlando Jones, who play the role of two college professors, arrive to be the first to investigate the rock, they try to take a sample of the rock to test it. When they break off the piece of rock, it starts to “bleed”. Really, a rock can bleed? Next thing you know, the blood will start transforming into a sentient species! So, after they collect some of the the “blood”, they bring it back to the lab for testing and inspecting. Now, it is my understanding that in order to look at anything under a microscope you need light to do so. So even if the green light indicates that the scope is on, but the diaphragm light is not on, then I’m pretty sure that your not going to get very far. In addition, while he is looking at the sample through the non-lit microscope, it looks to be growing in the slide, however, when it grows to a point, the slide breaks. What...

There is a need to meet these challenges, pursue more knowledge, and work as individuals and as a society toward long-term sustainability. Recent research has sent a message that global warming may not be a hypothetical threat, but a current issue warranting immediate action (Krogh, 2009). Global Warming There is a steady rise in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It is estimated that the average carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere has increased approximately 17% in the past 45 years (Campbell, Reece, & Simon, 2007). It is estimated that 20% of the excess carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere can be attributed to the burning of trees after deforestation. The burning of fossil fuel accounts for another 70-80% of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. Global temperatures are concurrently on the rise. Carbon dioxide lets radiation through the atmosphere, but retains some of the heat it generates (greenhouse effect). When carbon dioxide increases in the atmosphere, this greenhouse effect is enhanced, and too much heat from the sun is retained in the atmosphere. Some scientists, therefore, believe...

...a theory about the origins of the basic building blocks for the world we see today, Given the nature of the subject matter, it is also frequently discussed with heavy religious overtones. Young Earth Creationists dismiss it as an "atheistic theory", dreamt up by scientists looking to deny the divine creation account from Genesis. Conversely, Old Earth Creationists (as well as other Christians) have latched onto BBT as proof of Genesis, claiming that the theory demonstrates that the universe had an origin and did not exist at some point in the distant past. Finally, some atheists have argued that BBT rules out a creator for the universe. What is the Big Bang theory? a) Common misconceptions about the Big Bang In most popularized science sources, it is often described with something like "The universe came into being due to the explosion of a point in which all matter was concentrated." There are several misconceptions hidden in these statements: The BBT is not about the origin of the universe. Rather, its primary focus is the development of the universe over time. The origin of the universe was not an explosion of matter into already existing space. The famous...

...ole of youth in oil conservation ”Under your shoulders. Dear young people of the entire world, weigh the responsibility to transform tomorrow's world into a society where peace, harmony and fraternity reign. “ - Bishop Carlos Belo Youth constitute about 40 percent of the total population of India. The youth of every country is its valuable human resource. The responsibility for change, progress and innovation lies on their shoulders. Youth can make or mar society. There has always been misunderstood by the elders. The elders feel that, being immature and inexperienced, the youth usually indulge in thoughtless activities. However, the youth have the zeal to initiate revolutions. Mao Tse Tung of China realized this latent power and dedication of youth of his country. He entrusted them with the responsibility of bringing about Cultural Revolution, a change in the attitude of the society. The youth of our country also played a significant role in the freedom struggle. Today the youth needs to play an important role in promoting oil conservation. India is country of rich cultural heritage as well as it is rich in resources essential for a comfortable living. Such resources also include the oil resources such as petroleum and diesel which are essential resources for transportation but these resources are exploited today to extreme. Conservation of these resources is necessary so as to enjoy and live life comfortably. As Mahatma Gandhi said “the earth has enough to fulfill the...
