Conclusion In this experiment I tested different light intensities. I tested a normal fluorescent light bulb‚ a 100-watt light bulb‚ a 25-watt light bulb‚ and a 15-watt light bulb. I was surprised to find that the control plant grew the most at 135 mm. The 100 watt plant grew the least at 0 mm due to the fact that it fried the plant. The 25 watt plant grew the next highest at 120 mm. The 15-watt light bulb grew tall fastest‚ but then slowed down and stopped at 98 mm you would want to use this

Fan Cart Lab We did a fan cart for our physics class the other day. To set up the lab first‚ we measured the effect of the mass of the fan cart on the acceleration of the cart. The mass of the fan cart was the independent variable and acceleration was the dependent variable. We kept the speed of the cart on medium‚ and calculated the acceleration and motion. As a result‚ we had figured out that the bigger the mass the slower the acceleration‚ as we all should have known. To calculate this we used

Laboratory No 4 Electrical Systems 100 AC CIRCUITS INTRODUCTION The purpose of this laboratory test was to make comparisons between theoretical and practical results and to develop a greater understanding of factors affecting the operation of complex AC networks. SUMMARY OF RESULTS The error in the results ranges from 0.02% to 22.63% and the phase angle errors ranged from 0.02° to 17.27°. This suggests that part of our results were very accurate (series parallel RC network) and the rest

A.C current meters Introduction An ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the electric current in a circuit. Electric currents are measured in amperes (A)‚ hence the name. Neither type of basic dc PMMC meter movement will correctly indicate an alternating current. There are‚ however‚ four basic types of meter movement that will indicate ac values:- Thermocouple Hot wire Electrodynamometer Iron-vane Electrodynamic ammeters An electrodynamic meter uses an electromagnet instead

EXPERIMENT NO. 1 INTRODUCTION TO LAB INSTRUMENTS. 1. BREADBOARD We should be familiar to the following things about a breadboard: * What is a breadboard and what is it used for? * How does it work? * Setting Up. * Limitations. What is a breadboard and what is it used for? A breadboard (or protoboard) is usually a construction base for prototyping of electronics. The term "breadboard" is commonly used to refer to a solderless breadboard (plugboard). It was designed by

Lab Report: Stoichiometry Lab Oct. 27‚ 2011 Claire Elizabeth Lab Partners: Hannah Signature:___________________ Introduction- Baking soda and vinegar are two common materials found in almost every household. That‚ plus the fact that all the starting and finishing materials are non hazardous and safe‚ is why this is one of the first chemical reactions that many people are exposed to The purpose of this experiment tests which of the two reactants (vinegar and baking soda) is the limited

of the main hazards of using inductances is electrical energy stored in the magnetic field. If a circuit containing an inductance is interrupted then the stored energy can release through air (forming an arc). This can destroy a switch contact‚ burn fingers‚ create other damage. In the circuit of Figure 1‚ show how to mitigate the risk (pay attention to polarity!). We give the elements in this circuit some simple values for the purpose of better description and explanation. Say V = 5V‚ R= 1 Ω and

Chapter 13 AC MEASUREMENT This chapter explains rectification for measurement and rectifying instruments. Knowledge of the circuit principles will help you use these instruments properly and measurements alternating current correctly. One of the most common and economical methods for measuring alternating currents is to rectify these currents and read the resultant DC on an analog or digital volt-ohm meter (VOM). You need to take many considerations into account when using rectification: what
