Title: The Expanding Universe Objective: To interpret a model demonstrating the theories of our expanding universe. Hypothesis: Materials: •1 un-inflated balloon (when inflated‚ the balloon should have a round shape and be approximately the size of a soccer ball) •Markers •About 30 cm (12 inches) of string or yarn •Ruler or tape measure Procedures: Note: Read all the instructions for this lab before you begin working! Pre-reading the procedure‚ will give you a mental picture

A rocket in its simplest form is a chamber enclosing a gas under pressure. A small opening at one end of the chamber allows the gas to escape‚ and in doing so provides a thrust that propels the rocket in the opposite direction. Newton’s laws can be used to explain this his laws in the simplest terms can be explained like this: First law- Objects at rest will stay at rest and objects in motion will stay in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Second law- Force

A long‚ long time ago‚ there was one massive rock in the middle of the universe. All of a sudden‚ the rock exploded and pieces flew everywhere. These pieces started to flame up. They were called stars. The ones that weren’t on fire were called planets. There was a very unusual thing that happened on one of the planets called Earth. There was a man that appeared out of nowhere and he had a very special power. He could create anything that he wanted on command. This man’s name was Dadquois Earth was

The stripes of Jupiter go deep under the surface‚ reveals Juno probe A new discovery has been made about planet Jupiter’s stripes and the findings suggest that the stripes are much deeper than scientists had previously thought. NASA’s Juno probe has revealed many interesting facts about Jupiter‚ reports Space.com. The probe says that the bold and colorful stripes run deep down the surface of the planet. They are actually clouds‚ which optical light cannot penetrate and thus‚ it is difficult to detect

Dark Matter and Dark Energy a small figment of the imagination‚ or the essences of our past‚ present‚ and future affecting the universe around us? What the human race believe the force that seemed to construct all of us may be not what it seems. An idea created upon literally nothing. May the nothing rather be something. A mad idea‚ maybe the start of the story to find out all of us. The energy force in space first thought up and documented by the scientist we all know‚ Albert Einstein. The teachings

Experiment 2 Lab Report: Calculating the Spring Constant and Verifying that Energy is Conserved Within a System Abstract: An experiment was conducted to determine the spring constant of a spring in the cart by measuring the force required to compress a spring as well as the distance the spring compressed relative to the equilibrium position. A cart was placed onto a slanted track and speed and force censors were used to record appropriate data. The spring constant was determined

Physics Domino Lab I. Problem: What spacing between the Domino’s will provide the fastest velocity for a line of falling Domino’s. II. Background: The Domino C.I.M. lab that we have been assigned brings forth the question of the compression of a line of Domino’s. The question is‚ what set up of Domino’s has the fastest compression time. We intend on testing this by lining up different strings of Domino’s and finding which variable of distance has the greatest compression velocity

Albert Einstein‚ one of the greatest scientists of the twentieth century‚ received a letter from Phyllis Wright in 1936. In this letter‚ Phyllis asks Einstein whether or not scientists pray. In his response‚ Einstein’s purpose was not only to answer Phyllis’ question‚ but he wanted to express to the public that everyone has a belief in the unknown‚ whether it be religion or scientific knowledge. Einstein uses words which mirror those used in religion and a neutral diction‚ and he structures his letter

According to most astrophysicists‚ all the matter found in the universe today -- including the matter in people‚ plants‚ animals‚ the earth‚ stars‚ and galaxies -- was created at the very first moment of time‚ thought to be about 13 billion years ago. The universe began‚ scientists believe‚ with every speck of its energy jammed into a very tiny point. This extremely dense point exploded with unimaginable force‚ creating matter and propelling it outward to make the billions of galaxies of our vast
