The compound pendulum Consider an extended body of mass with a hole drilled though it. Suppose that the body is suspended from a fixed peg‚ which passes through the hole‚ such that it is free to swing from side to side‚ as shown in Fig. 98. This setup is known as a compound pendulum. | Figure 98: A compound pendulum. | Let be the pivot point‚ and let be the body’s centre of mass‚ which is located a distance from the pivot. Let be the angle subtended between the downward vertical (which passes

November 26‚ 2012 Unknown #19 Enterbacteriaceae Enterobacter aerogenes ABSTRACT The objective of this report was to identify an unknown microorganism through several differential media tests. Over the course of a couple weeks‚ ten tests were performed. First‚ a gram stain was performed‚ indicating the bacterium was gram negative. An aerotolerance test determined that the bacterium was a facultative anaerobe. Next‚ a negative result in the methyl red test indicated that

TOPIC 2 Metals The History of Metals * Uses of metals through history: * Copper Age (3200-2300 BCE) – copper and tin were most common metals‚ and were used for ornaments‚ weapons and tools. * Bronze Age (2300-700 BCE) – copper‚ tin and bronze were used for tools‚ weapons and transport. They produced bronze by heating copper and tin with charcoal. * Iron Age (1000 BCE – 1 CE) – iron steel and lead was used for tools‚ weapons and pipes. Iron is much harder than bronze.

Identifying themes in novels A theme is like a symbol in that it is an element that an author can use to add depth of meaning to a novel. 1. Themes are expressed and emphasized by the way the author makes us feel. By sharing feelings of the main character you also share the ideas that go through his mind. 2. Themes are presented in thoughts and conversations. Authors put words in their character’s mouths only for good reasons. One of these is to develop a story’s themes. The things

Experiments with Metals and Ions of Metals Introduction Metals are similar in their physical properties in general‚ but they are not identical. Most of the metals are solids; few of them are liquids‚ such as mercury and cesium. Density of metals is not similar also. For example‚ sodium has density of 0.97g/cm3 while lead has density of 11.4g/cm3. Melting point of sodium is 98.0oC while for lead it is 327.6oC. Metals have the capability to lose electrons when they react with non-metals such as

Corrosion of Metals Introduction Have you ever had a bike that went rusty‚ figure 1? If the paint is scratched and the rust allowed to spread‚ it is very difficult to repair the frame so it looks as good as new again. Rusting costs us millions of pounds each year‚ either through replacing things or through trying to prevent it happening in the first place. Figure 1: Bike rusting. In this booklet you learn about rusting and ways of stopping it‚ followed by a look at another metal‚ aluminium that
