Purpose The goal of this lab is to find out which metals were used in the minting of pennies before and after 1982 by calculating their densities. Hypothesis If the penny was made after 1982 then its density will be higher than those made before 1982. Materials • 1 Graduated cylinder • 30 mL of water • 10 pennies minted before 1982 • 10 pennies minted after 1982 • 1 electric scale Procedure The mass of ten pennies minted before 1982 was calculated five times using the scale and then

Physics 01L Density Abstract This experiment was conducted in order to determine the density of the Aluminum metal samples provided in the lab. Specific tools such as the vernier caliper and balance scale were used to measure and record the values found. Given that density is a measurement of mass over volume‚ both of these quantities would have to be determined experimentally‚ prior to proceeding with the calculation of the density‚ for each of the six subjects

Introduction: Density is defined by its mass per unit volume‚ and is most often written in mathematical terms as; d = m / v Mass is usually given in grams‚ g‚ and volume is given in cubic centimeters‚ g/cm3‚ or‚ grams per milliliter‚ g/mL. Density is not a property that depends upon the amount of substance present. For example‚ one gram of lead and one ton of lead have the same density. Density also does depend on temperature. For instance cold water is denser than warm water;

Sand Density Lab- Nick Schlosser I. Overview- Finding the volume of regular shapes and irregular shapes using different methods like the water displacement method. Procedure- See data chart III. A.)With a ruler of calipers calculate volumes of regular and irregular objects- fill in chart. B.) Record data from another group to compare data for same object. Preliminary questions- 1. Explain how you propose we go about measuring the volume of sand(as sand has air around it. What

Five-Layer Density Column A density column consists of layers of liquids of different densities which do not mix with each other‚ and which are clearly distinguishable from each other. The highest density material is at the bottom of the column‚ and as you proceed up the column‚ the density of each successive layer decreases‚ with the lowest density layer on top. Three methods for construction of a five-layer density column are discussed in this write-up. All methods use the same five liquids. •

Comparing the Density of Metals Question: What is the effect of changing the type of metal on its density? Hypothesis: If a different metal type is used‚ then the density will change. Materials: 4 metal samples Balance 50 ml graduated cylinder Water Paper towels Apparatus: Pre-Lab Questions: 1. What’s the formula to calculate density? D = M / V

Soil Porosity & Density Objective: To determine if the porosity of soil is related to the density. Hypothesis: I think that that the porosity of soil is related to the density because the higher the density of the sand the lower the porosity of the sand‚ which are both componets for the water to rise. Materials: • Sand and Loam samples • 2 large containers • Plastic cups • Water • Scale Procedure: Loam 1) The loam without the water was fresh ‚ it had different shades of black‚ and

Performance Task no. 4.1 Pressure Principle I. Introduction Why is theater seat so much more comfortable than a bicycle seat? One of the main reasons any seat is comfortable is the pressure it exerts on your body. This performance task aims to know the importance and application of pressure. Pressure is defined as the force acting perpendicular to a unit area. It is the result of a force distributed over an area. A theater seat’s large padded seat and back offer a larger area to support your
