Design Lab Report Introduction: This lab is looking at the conservation of energy in moving objects. Research question: How do the height and kinetic energy of an object affect the diameter of its crater when it hits sand? Theory: The theory being looked at here is the transfer of gravitational potential energy (GPE) to kinetic energy (KE). At a point of drop of an object‚ the potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy of the object just before it impacts the floor: GPEPosition of drop

The hypothesis for this experiment was that if the baby lemurs activity level was compared to an adults‚ the baby lemur will have a higher activity level. The hypothesis was not supported. The data shows that the adult had a higher activity level. The data shows the adult being 1.8% more active than the baby lemur. The other behaviors of the adult Ring Tailed Lemur was grooming and sleeping/resting. Second‚ throughout the six trials the only behaviors that were performed by the baby lemur was sleeping/resting

exam week‚ but the “do it” part does not occur until the night before the due date. On nights before each due date‚ the confident and carefree Heather that once said “don’t worry” can be seen struggling to keep her eyes open at 4:00 am in the morning while shoving a textbook of information into her head. As much as I detest it‚ I am the “pro” in procrastinate‚ and the laziness in me embraces the motto “if tomorrow is not the due date‚ today is not the do-date.” Procrastination‚ the act of delaying an

Case Study: Toyota Acceleration Problem 1) For the case study‚ our group‚ The Socratic Triads‚ we have chosen to analysis the ethical issues that are related to the Toyota acceleration problem. The Toyota acceleration problem first came to the light in the media around late 2009. The acceleration pedal of certain models of Toyotas and Lexus were unintendedly accelerating without the driver’s foot on the pedal. It has been reported that the acceleration pedal has been malfunctioning as early as 2003

customers who otherwise wouldn’t have travelled by air. 2. How do you expect Aer Lingus and British Airways to respond? There could be 4 ways to respond: 1. Start price war with Ryanair by immediately reducing AL and BA prices: unsustainable due to high overheads. 2. Gradual cost cutting (staff reduction‚ less customer service‚ less perks‚ lower quality travel‚ outsourcing of services‚ etc.) to bring pricing structure in line with Ryanair: without losing core competence‚ brand value and profit

Motion-Force and Acceleration The Big Idea: An object accelerates when a net force acts on it. 6.1 Force Causes Acceleration • Unbalanced forces acting on an object cause the object to accelerate. • The combination of foces acting on an object is net force; acceleration depends in net force. • Doubling the force on an object doubles its acceleration. • An object’s acceleration is directly proportional to the net force acting on it. 6.2 Mass Resists Acceleration •

Toyota Products Liability Lawsuits Regarding Sudden Acceleration An automobile accident involving a Lexus (subsidiary of Toyota) vehicle resulted in the deaths of four people in California on August 28‚ 2009. Mark Saylor took his car into the Bob Baker Lexus dealer in El Cajon‚ CA to have it serviced and they provided him a loaner 2009 Lexus. While Saylor was driving the Lexus loaner it suddenly accelerated and he couldn’t control the car. One of the three other occupants in the car called
