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

Mechanisms of Heat Transfer Prepared by: Ms. Ana Antoniette C. Illahi 1 Conduction • conduction (or heat conduction) is the transfer of thermal energy between regions of matter due to a temperature gradient. Heat spontaneously flows from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature‚ and reduces temperature differences over time‚ approaching thermal equilibrium.

Surface Tension My problem was to find out how to test or measure surface tension. I think the reason of some of the force in surface tension is cohesion and gravity. Surface Tension is the condition existing at the free surface of a liquid‚ resembling the properties of an elastic skin under tension. The tension is the result of intermolecular forces exerting an unbalanced inward pull on the individual surface molecules; this is reflected in the considerable curvature at those edges where the

but to adopt or not use the product. Society currently is in a state of conformity and how the saying “go with the flow” goes. Most innovations of today are widely accepted by a large group of people and that in turn leads to more and more adopters‚ proving the success of that innovation. Eventually those “innovative” ideas will run out because everything humanely possible will be in existence. Microsoft’s Surface Pro laptop-in-disguise1 tablet is no different‚ a “flawed”2 device which has seen improvements

Heat transfer Heat transfer is the transition of thermal energy from a hotter object to a cooler object ("object" in this sense designating a complex collection of particles which is capable of storing energy in many different ways). When an object or fluid is at a different temperature than its surroundings or another object‚ transfer of thermal energy‚ also known as heat transfer‚ or heat exchange‚ occurs in such a way that the body and the surroundings reach thermal equilibrium‚ this means that

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

Heat exchanger A heat exchanger is a device that is used to transfer thermal energy (enthalpy) between two or more fluids‚ between a solid surface and a fluid‚ or between solid particulates and a fluid‚ at different temperatures and in thermal contact. In heat exchangers‚ there are usually no external heat and work interactions. Typical applications involve heating or cooling of a fluid stream of concern and evaporation or condensation of single- or multicomponent fluid streams. In a few heat exchangers

heat exchanger is a device built for efficient heat transfer from one medium to another. The media may be separated by a solid wall‚ so that they never mix‚ or they may be in direct contact.[1] They are widely used in space heating‚ refrigeration‚ air conditioning‚ power plants‚ chemical plants‚ petrochemical plants‚ petroleum refineries‚ natural gas processing‚ and sewage treatment. One common example of a heat exchanger is the radiator in a car‚ in which the heat source‚ being a hot engine-cooling
