2012). Essentially‚ it measures the rebound of a ball after a collision with another object‚ like a golf club striking a stationary golf ball. A perfectly elastic ball will have a COR of 1‚ and a perfectly plastic ball will have a COR of 0. In golf‚ the coefficient of restitution comes into play when the club head impacts the ball‚ and has a direct effect on how far the ball will travel after impact. Once the club head strikes the ball‚ the ball is deformed and flattened by the impact and the transfer

The cerebellum of the brain‚ the “little brain”‚ is located at the rear of the brainstem. The tissue is folded into itself several times and each layer helps with the organization on the mind. It is clear that the cerebellum has an essential job because over time it has grown‚ by studying fossilized skulls it has been exposed that the cerebellum has increased to three times its size over the past million years.

The ‘Experiment’ by Dr Haskell portrays the unusual experiment that he conducted to compare his bare body and a Chickadees body in harsh freezing conditions. He decided to investigate it further because there was no logical explanation for a tiny bird to be able to survive in such conditions. He related his astonishment to the Bergmann’s rule‚ which states that larger animals will be found in colder climates and smaller animals will be found in warmer climates. Haskell found that the Chickadees

Investigating the effectivness of PVA and PVAc as base polymers In the production of a polymer ball. Introduction A monomer refers to a specific group of atoms that from a molecular unit. When monomers are strung together like a long chain they form polymers. A good analogy of polymers‚ would be long connections of chains which become tangled like a bunch of spaghetti in a pot. The reason for experimenting with‚ and understanding polymers is because they play such a major roll and are found
