April 29‚ 2014 Abstract The objective project was to use our knowledge of physic properties to create a working car that was powered by a mouse trap. I found that the lighter the car was and the more traction the car had‚ the further it travelled. Introduction The purpose of this project was to create a car that is powered by a mouse trap. We were to use our knowledge of physics laws to make the best car we can. I knew from Newton’s Law‚ F=ma‚ that if my car had a lower

“Cartoon Physics‚ Part 1” Nick Flynn centers “Cartoon Physics‚ Part 1” around childhood innocence. He very strongly urges not only parents‚ but anyone around a young child to not force upon them knowledge they do not need to know. Flynn captures the simple kid mind and harsh reality with tone‚ imagery‚ figurative language‚ and even the form of the overall poem. There is a stark contrast between tones in the passage. In the first few lines the tone is cold; detached. The actual physics of the never-ending

A River About The poet Attipat Krishnaswami Ramanujan was an Indian playwright‚ folklorist‚ and poet author who wrote in both English and Kannada. Ramanujan ’s work shows that cultural tradition in India is a conflict between the colonial English identity and post-colonial ethnic identities. As a poet‚ he is known for his avant-garde approach and atavistic poetic arguments rather than innate genius. His major works include: Hymns for the Drowning‚ Speaking of Siva‚ and A River etc. In 1976‚

Chapter 19 Nuclear Energy 19.1 Energy in your life Almost everything around us uses electricity and in order to power these devices‚ we must generate it. To create electrical energy‚ we must create thermal energy. Several techniques include using coal‚ natural gas‚ or nuclear thermal to create heat. Once heat is created‚ it is used to vaporize water and use the steam to propel a piston which turns an electric generator. Alternative energy sources include wind‚ solar‚ and micro hydro. 19.2 Nuclear

Muscles are a Band or bundles of tissue in either the human body ‚ or animal body that allow contraction for movement. There are many muscles in the body. It is stated that there are over 650 muscles in the body ‚ and is said that there are possibilities of up to 840. Your whole body is a muscle. You have Muscles in your head‚ arms‚ legs‚ just about anywhere you can think of and as we progress in life and become of age our muscles may grow and get stronger ‚ or may deteriorate.

Height of Ball Drop v/s The Depth of the Crater | By Tejas Shah‚ IBDP Year 1 | | | | | | | * Aim- To find the relationship between the depth of crater and the height from which it is dropped. * Research Question- Does the height from where the ball is released affect the depth of the crater. * Hypothesis- If we increase the height of the drop of the ball; the depth of the crater would increase. This is because as there is loss in potential energy subsequently there

sample The second law states that the net force on an object is equal to the rate of change (that is‚ the derivative) of its linear momentum p in an inertial reference frame: [pic] The second law can also be stated in terms of an object’s acceleration. Since the law is valid only for constant-mass systems‚[16][17][18] the mass can be taken outside the differentiation operator by the constant factor rule in differentiation. Thus‚ [pic] where F is the net force applied

HIGH-VELOCITY INJURIES Harland Hayes‚ University of Utah School of Medicine It should be no great surprise to find out that the most serious of injuries that occur in the back country are those that are associated when people are moving with speed. There are common sports that by their very nature require speed such as skiing where injuries don’t have to occur. However‚ there are other sports that demand deliberate even delicate moves‚ such as rock climbing‚ where speed gained from a fall

1) A 4-kg mass moving with speed 2 m/s‚ and a 2-kg mass moving with a speed of 4 m/s‚ are gliding over a horizontal frictionless surface. Both objects encounter the same horizontal force‚ which directly opposes their motion‚ and are brought to rest by it. Which statement best describes their respective stopping distances? (A) The 4-kg mass travels twice as far as the 2-kg mass before stopping. (B) The 2-kg mass travels twice as far as the 4-kg mass before stopping. (C) Both masses travel the

In the article‚ “Lagging Far Behind: Women in the Middle East” Judith Colp Rubin (2012)‚ an author‚ journalist and publisher‚ demonstrates the main aspects behind causing inequality between male and female rights in the Arab World. Colp Rubin clearly states based on certified statistical evidence‚ that despite of the basic rights given to females in the Arab region‚ lack in the equilibrium between both genders has still been consistent. She demonstrates her claim by referring to the discriminated
