ABSTRACT. In this experiment‚ we test factors which affect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whetherthe surface area ofthe block orthe type ofsurface affectsfriction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change the coefficient of kinetic friction‚ while the types of materialsin contact were directly related to the coefficient of kinetic friction. INTRODUCTION Friction is a part of our everyday life. Nearly every movement we make involves friction

Meal Worm Cellular Respiration Experiment Introduction Cellular respiration provides energy to all living organisms by collecting energy from food molecules. The cell then rearranges complex molecules to simpler molecules and uses that energy to make a molecule that stores energy called adenosine triphosphate also known as ATP. Cellular respiration can occur with or without oxygen. When it occurs without oxygen‚ it is called anaerobic respiration. There are very few organisms that can get

would cause substantial damage to the membrane structure. Since catalase utilizes hydrogen peroxide as both an electron acceptor and donor it oxidizes hydrogen peroxide isolating oxygen while it simultaneously reduces the second hydrogen peroxide molecule to water2. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by the enzyme catalase is represented in the following balanced equation:2H2O2(l) 2H2O(l) + O2(g). Dead cells may still be studied to learn more about enzyme function because as seen in the liver

INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is very important in our daily life from measurements of blood-flow rates in human artery to the measurement of liquid oxygen in a rocket. In this experiment‚ students are to adapt to various ways to measure the flow of essentially incompressible fluids by using the flow measuring apparatus. Students will also be able to understand the application of Bernoulli’s equation in this experiment. The flow is measured by using a venture meter‚ an orifice meter

in solution to give hydrogen ions and‚ for example‚ chloride ions or sulphate ions. Sulphuric acid‚ hydrochloric acid and nitric acid are all strong acids. Ethanoic acid is a weak acids. That means that its solution contains a high proportion of molecules that haven’t split into ions. For all the reactions which give off hydrogen‚ the same ionic equation applies - whether the acid is strong or weak: Mg(s) + 2H+(aq) Mg2+(aq) + H2(g) The key factors to vary‚ control or take into account The amount

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

(3 points) Score 1. How do you calculate magnification on a microscope? Answer: The shortest lens is the scanning objective; you use it to locate the object on the slide. The medium-length lens is the low-power objective. The longest lens is the high-power objective. Multiplying the power of the eyepiece
