What causes osteoporosis? In childhood‚ bones grow and repair very quickly‚ but this process slows as you get older. Bones stop growing in length between the ages of 16 and 18‚ but continue to increase in density until you are in your late 20s. From about the age of 35‚ you gradually lose bone density. This is a normal part of ageing‚ but for some people it can lead to osteoporosis and an increased risk of fractures. Other things that increase the risk of developing osteoporosis include: diseases

Lab 34-2: 1. The general trend for bone density as a person ages is a steady decline as years pass. This study shows that every decade‚ males and females bone density slowly decreases. 2. Between the ages of 20-50 females lose about 11% of their bone density and males lose about 13% of their bone density. Males do in fact lose more density then females but they lose it at a more stable and steady rate. Females lose less density at more unstable rate going from about 6% (40-50) to about 9%

Research: The word density means the degree of compactness of a substance. There is density in everything in your everyday life (matter.)The formula to find density is d=m/v.The density of solids and liquids is usually stated as g/cm3‚ while gases are usually stated as kg/m3. A real life example of density would be that ice floats on water because it is less dense than water‚ or it sinks because it is more dense than water. The only substance that breaks this rule is ice. Archimedes was

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: DENSITY Introduction According to the definition Density is the physical property that allows us to compare the mass of substances for a specific volume. In this Lab activity that took place in Deree College‚ Agia Paraskevi Campus we deal with the density of solids and density of liquids. The main purpose of this experiment is to understand what in reality density means‚ how we can measure it‚ how useful it is‚ what is the difference between density of solids and liquids

10/1/13 Cubs Density The purpose of this experiment is to find out the density of the unknown solid object by determining the mass and the volume through the experiment. To do this we will be get the mass of the object and determine the volume of the object by placing it into a liquid. Then we will divide mass by volume and get its density.

Throughout the lab I found out that both of the small and large silver rod‚ do not have the same density‚ and also found out that the gold rod is not real gold. My hypothesis is that since‚ the large and small silver rod has about the same density I believe that they would have about the same amount of volume. They both might displace the same amount

Performed: July 10‚ 2013 Group No.: 4 Date Submitted: July 17‚ 2013 Experiment #1: Measurements INTRODUCTION Density is a physical property of matter‚ as each element and compound has a unique density associated with it. The unit of Density is g/cm3 or g/mL. It is used to measure thr relative “heaviness” of objects with a constant volume. As defined‚ the formula for Density is Mass over Volume (ρ=m/v) and it can be rearranged to get the Volume (v=m/ρ) or Mass (m=ρv) of a certain substance

Density (Linearized plot) TA: Blue Rex rex Group Members: Billy and Mandy Tuesday; 1200-1350 Abstract: In this lab the density of hand-made clay balls were calculated to understand how scientists model physical effects and to understand logarithmic plots. The hand-made balls ranged from diameters of 2cm to 6cm and were measured with vernier calipers by each member of the group. A total of 6 independent measures of each diameter were taken to establish uncertainty. The clay balls were then
