Cantilever Designed Lab Investigating the relationship between the position of the weight on the cantilever and the amount of deflection Introduction How does the position of the weight on the cantilever affect the amount of deflection? The independent variable of this experiment will be the location of the weight l on the cantilever because it will change throughout the experiment. The dependent variable will be the amount of deflection d because it will depend on the position of the

Example 5: Student work Maths Exploration Newton-Raphson method Rationale- For this project I chose to research and analyse the Newton-Raphson method‚ where calculus is used to approximate roots. I chose this topic because it looked extremely interesting and the idea of using calculus to approximate roots‚ seemed intriguing. The aim of this exploration is to find out how to use the Newton-Raphson method‚ and in what situations this method is used Explanation of the Newton-Raphson method

Digital Balance used to measure the mass of the potato strip before and after osmosis. Time should be kept constant when the potato strip is put into the solution Hypothesis: The mass of the potato strip will increase in water and dilute concentrations of sucrose depending on the concentration within the cell. When the concentration of the sucrose solution outside the cells of the potato strip will be less‚ the mass of the solution will increase as water molecules from outside will diffuse into

The effect of osmosis on artificial cells with different concentrations of sucrose Alex McRae Biology 120-902 Grand Valley State University 1 Campus Drive Allendale‚ MI 49401 mcraeal@mail.gvsu.edu Abstract In this study‚ we tested the validity of osmosis in artificial animal cells. Osmosis is the diffusion of free water across a membrane. The purpose of the study was to calculate the rate of osmosis in artificial cells containing different
Premium Concentration Semipermeable membrane Osmosis
Introduction The reason of this experiment was to identify the properties and effects of osmosis. Osmosis can be defined as the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. (Miller/Levine) Osmosis occurs when there is an area of higher and lower concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion. Diffusion is when molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of higher concentration. The three types of concentrations are hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic. When in comparison

installation and maintenance approach to computer hardware and software. DISA which designs configuration documents in support of DoD‚ had first coined the phrase under instructions by DoD. This instruction obligates that “all information assurance (IA) and IA-enabled IT products incorporated into DOD information systems shall be configured in accordance with DOD approved security configuration guidelines”. This mandate provides that recommendations delineated in STIG checklists‚ will ensure DOD environments
