CURTIN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED PHYSICS Physical Measurement 201 DRIVEN HARMONIC OSCILLATOR Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the various aspects of harmonic motion using a Driven Harmonic Motion Analyser (DHMA). The aspects that are investigated in this experiment is the spring constant k of two springs‚ the resonant frequency‚ the damping factor‚ and the relationship between phase and resonant frequency. The value of k of the first

Stereotyping in Motion Pictures Even though movies and shows are mainly fictional and used for pure entertainment‚ these forms of media lead to discriminations such as Islamophobia because they vilify Arabs and Muslims portraying them as a violent and dangerous group. Muslim: A person that follows the religion of Islam Islam: a monotheistic faith that teaches that there is only one God and that Muhammad is His messenger. Arab: a person originally from a part of the Middle East Allah: Arabic translation

Interpretation of Results The objective of the experiment‚ entitled Newton’s Second Law of Motion‚ is to verify the direct proportionality of acceleration and net force if the mass of the body is constant and to verify the inverse proportionality of acceleration and mass if the net force is constant. It is now clearly explained and proven that Newton’s second law of motion is true. By experiments‚ the law is proved. All data produced results parallel to what Newton states. We can say that the

Film Paper You’re Name Humanities 150 You’re Instructor February 4‚ 2012 Film Paper The movies are a great way to pass some time and escape reality for a couple of hours. People like movies for all sorts of different reasons. Movies usually come out each week on Friday night and on average three to four movies come out a week. That comes out to over two hundred movies a year and that is just mainstream film. One of the decisions people have to make is what movies to watch. The paper will

CASE: Research in Motion (RIM) Introduction Research In Motion (RIM) is the company behind BlackBerry‚ one of the best-selling smartphone brands in the US. RIM first went public in 1997 and introduced BlackBerry as a paging device that allowed user to read emails. Soon‚ BlackBerry evolved into a full blown smartphone: a call‚ text‚ email capable organizer. It first gained ground in the business community and government‚ with its high-se curity and essential business features. BlackBerry was

How Surface Area Affects the Motion of a Falling Object Introduction During this investigation‚ varying surface areas of objects will be explored in a manner observing the motion as they fall. Most predominantly‚ this motion encircles speed. Speed is calculated from the formula below‚ and hence is directly proportionate to time taken when the distance travelled remains a constant. Speed = Distance/Time Surface area is likely to affect the time taken for an object to complete a descent‚ and

The natural hazards caused by plate tectonics are more a result of human factors than physical ones. Discuss to what extent do you agree with this statement? [40 marks] A natural hazard is a threat of a naturally occurring event that will have a negative effect on people or the environment. The Earth’s lithosphere (crust) is divided into tectonic plates which are constantly in motion due to the convection currents caused by heat cycles in the mantle‚ driven by radioactive decay in the Earth’s core

Projectile Motion Purpose: An object in a projectile motion move horizontally with no acceleration and vertically with the gravitational acceleration at the same time. This experiment is to investigate projectile motion using experiments‚ equations and comparing the expected and experimental data. Procedure: Case I: Use formulas to find equation of horizontal Range (R) in a projectile motion. Rearrange equation for Rmax‚ and find the angle Adjust the launches angle to angle Launch

6 – 150 mL beakers were set up and a stir bar placed in each beaker. Each beaker was labeled with DI water‚ or the pH buffer that was going to be put in the beaker. 50 mL of each of the 5 assigned pH buffers and DI water were obtained using a graduated cylinder and placed in the corresponding beaker. Each of the beakers containing the pH buffer and DI water were placed on the stir plate and the stir plate turned on. A sample of salicylic acid was obtained in a weigh boat and taken back to the lab
