Experiment #4 Torque ABSTRACT The objective of the experiment is to observe how the weight of the beam on which the forces act behaves like a force concentrated at the center of gravity of the beam and to determine the conditions of equilibrium for several parallel forces. Before the experiment proper‚ Torque was discussed extensively. The experiment is divided into two parts. In the first experiment‚ the meter stick was weighed and the group was tasked to find the center of gravity of

Introduction The projects objective is to design a bridge spanning across the Murrumbidgee River located near Gundagai. Through the use of hydrological data and hydraulic analysis we will determine the required height of the bridge corresponding to a specific frequency of flood. To design a bridge capable of spanning the Murrumbidgee River and flood plain will require hydrological analysis which takes into account all upstream data that is required for the catchment area of the river that will

Chapter 10: Review Questions 3) Seven features of the active sun are: 1. Sunspots: these regions are darker and cooler than the rest of the suns photosphere; they are caused by magnetic fields that protrude at that area of the visible surface. 2. Plages: These are bright areas in the chromosphere. They are associated with magnetic fields emerging from the sun. 3. Solar Flares: these are ejections of large volumes of gas. They can sometimes head our way causing radio interference
