    In the movie retelling the story of Apollo 13‚ there were many instances where gravity and its properties were relevant. The five main topics I have chosen I feel are the easiest to explain and understand. The first is the requirements of liftoff and how the astronauts will experience g forces. Next is coming into earth and how they will have to calculate the angle and speed at which they will have to re-enter at. Third I talk about the simulator and how it prepares them for conditions in outer space

    Gravity was nominated‚ and won‚ the Academy Award for Best Cinematography in 2014. After one look at the space inspired thriller you can see there are plenty of reasons why Gravity won and earned the award. Gravity’s cinematographer‚ Emmanuel “Chivo” Lubezki‚ worked closely with director Alfonso Cuarón and visual effects supervisor Tim Webber to create a film set almost entirely in zero gravity. The audience is not just seeing space‚ but they are taken along what seems to be the most realistic view

    I will be demonstrating the law in which connects the period of the pendulum‚ expressed as T‚ to the length of the string‚ expressed a L. The system the lab will be based on will include a pendulum with a weight of W suspended at a fixed point by the string with a variable length of L and an angle theta to be measured using a protractor. The variable T will be measured as the period of time needed for the weight of the pendulum to swing back and forth once. For part 1 of the lab‚ we will be measure

    Aim What is the effect of differing pendulum length on its period? Hypothesis If the length of the pendulum is decreased‚ the period will decrease. Variables Independent: The length of the pendulum (cm) Dependent: The period of the pendulum (s) Controlled: The weight of the swinging mass The angle for maximum displacement Materials: Pendulum (can be as simple as a mass tied to string attached to a piece of cardboard) Retort stand and clamp Stopwatch Ruler Protractor Masking tape

    pressure. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor. In this experiment we were be able would use various apparatus to determining the melting point and boiling point of organic compounds. We realized that boiling point and melting is affected by pressure‚ molecular weight‚ structure‚ intermolecular interactions and most of all impurities present in the compound. INTRODUCTION

    Simple Harmonic Motion Ethan Albers Case Western Reserve University‚ Department of Physics Cleveland‚ OH 44106 Abstract: In this lab‚ my partner and I observed oscillations that were translational and rotational. The two forms we studied must have a form of a restoring force that is proportional to the displacement of the object from its point of equilibrium. This produces the harmonic motion which this lab wants. At small and big amplitudes we measured/observed the translational oscillation
