familiarization of electrical apparatus. Name Image Symbol Uses of functions Galvanometer A galvanometer is a very sensitive meter which is used to measure tiny currents‚ usually 1mA or less. Ammeter An ammeter is used to measure current. Voltmeter A voltmeter is used to measure voltage. Resistor (Fixed and Variable) Fixed Variable A resistor restricts the flow of current‚ for example to limit the current passing through an LED. A resistor is used with a capacitor in

Laboratory Apparatus Beakers are useful as a reaction container or to hold liquid or solid samples. They are also used to catch liquids from titrations and filtrates from filtering operations. Bunsen burners are sources of heat. Burets are for addition of a precise volume of liquid. The volume of liquid added can be determined to the nearest 0.01 mL with practice. Clay triangles are placed on a ring attached to a ring stand as a support for a funnel‚ crucible‚ or evaporating dish.

Friction on a surface. Aim: To establish the relation between weight of a rectangular wooden block lying on a horizontal table and the minimum force required to just move it using a spring balance Materials required: A rectangular block of wood with a hook ‚ set of weights‚ strong thread and a spring balance. Theory: The force of friction acting on a block of wood is proportional to the normal reaction acting on the block. By the third law of motion‚ normal reaction is equal to the weight

have chosen to talk to you about friction. Friction is the force between two objects in contact with each other‚ making it a contact force. It causes moving objects to slow down. Air resistance is a type of friction. Friction is an important force in our lives. We rely on friction in many ways. An athlete usually wears shoes which provide him/her with a greater friction between the shoe and the surface. We rely on friction as an important aspect of motion. Friction can be a very useful force because

Change in Pressure and Different Depths in a Static Fluid Lab Marcus Uchaker MET: 2050 January 26‚ 2012 Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to devise a correlation between that of the data we have collected from our experiment and compare it to that of theory. In this experiment 3 different tests were done in order to test this theory. The first test was to tie a balloon on the end of a manometer and measure the pressure at different depths in a large beaker filled with water. The next

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine: the coefficient of friction between a rubber stopper and a wooden ramp the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp The design of this experiment was done by placing a rubber stopper / wooden block onto a wooden ramp and tilting the ramp at a certain degree to cause the stopper / block to move. The measurements of the vertical distance

Pipe Friction Summary The purpose of this lab is to find the friction factor and Reynolds number for laminar and turbulent flow and also for values in the critical zone. Results were taken recorded and used to calculate the friction factor and Reynolds number. They were then compared with the Moody diagram. Aim This lab could be used in industry when dealing with a pipe line containing any type of liquid to calculate the Reynolds number and friction factor. It would also help in pipe
