Prediction I think that the speed of the cart will decrease as more weight is added on top of the cart. This is because the more weight that is placed on the moving vehicle/object‚ the more downward force is produced. This would increase the friction between the wheels of the cart and the ramp’s surface. The increase in friction would slow down the moving object (cart). Apparatus Trolley/cart- this is essentially a wooden block with wheels and a rubber end‚ to provide the collision with a

Introduction I have chosen to investigate a factor that affects the output of a potential divider circuit. A potential divider is resistors connected in series across a voltage source; used to obtain a desired fraction of the voltage. A resistor is a device having resistance to the passage of an electric current which affects the output voltage (Vout). The factors that I could investigate are changing the resistance of r2 and record the output (Vout)‚ or use a light-dependent resistor (LDR) and change

The following is a project made by anonymous: INTRODUCTION The general purpose photoconductive cell is also known as LDR – light dependent resistor. It is a type of semiconductor and its conductivity changes with proportional change in the intensity of light. There are two common types of materials used to manufacture the photoconductive cells. They are Cadmium Sulphide (CdS) and Cadmium Selenide (CdSe). Extrinsic devices have impurities added‚ which have a ground state energy closer to the conduction

Current‚ Voltage and Power * Electricity is the flow of electric charge. We can describe the flow of electric charge in several ways. These include the quantities Current‚ Voltage and Power. Current * Current (I) is the rate of flow of Charge Carriers‚ such as electrons. Current is usually thought of as moving in the direction of positive charge‚ so from the positive power supply to the negative. However‚ since in metals it is electrons that carry electric charge‚ the actually flow is opposite

Science in the Big City: Exploring Career Opportunities in the Natural and Physical Sciences New York City May 13-18‚ 2014 Students in the Natural Sciences at the University of Houston-Downtown are generally accomplished and motivated students with strong interests in science. However‚ students typically have a very limited perception of the science careers available to them outside of medicine. To educate students as to the array of potential careers available in the sciences (not medicine)

Space Definitions Field Vector A field vector is a single vector that describes the strengths and direction of a uniform vector field. For a gravitational field‚ the field vector is g Weight Weight is defined as the force on a mass due to the gravitational field of a large celestial body such as the Earth Gravitational Potential Energy Gravitational Potential Energy is the energy of a mass due to its position within a gravitational field. On a large scale GPE is defined as the work done

Step 1: The hand holding the the weight in the pendulum will release the weight and allow it to swing forward to hit the car. This is potential energy by the force of motion of the weight on the pendulum. Potential energy is the energy an object produces due to its position. The pendulum swinging is it being in motion therefore it has kinetic energy. The force shown form this could be Applied Force. Applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. Step 2: After

LIGHT DEPENDENT RESISTANCE INTRODUCTION In the society‚ some times street lights glow in day time due to any reason. In mines area people face many difficulties due to absence of light in the nights. In frontier and hilly areas‚ people face many problems due to damaged street lights. For solve above these problems‚ we create a device in which the lights glow in night and in day time‚ they off automatically and don’t glow. Due to use of it‚ we can solve above problems and can also save electricity
