    experiment is to study the friction loss along a pipe. In this experiment‚ water and mercury have been used to demonstrate the law of resistance with different types of flow which are laminar and turbulent flow. The variation of head loss will be obtained and hence determined the Reynold numbers and friction factor. In the end of the experiment‚ the law of resistance which is the relationship between i and u will be determined and hence established the critical R and friction factor. 1.0 Introduction

    Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces‚ fluid layers‚ and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction resists relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact. Dry friction is subdivided into static friction ("stiction") between non-moving surfaces‚ and kinetic friction between moving surfaces. Fluid friction describes the friction between layers of a viscous fluid that are moving relative to each other.[1][2]

    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

    Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine: the coefficient of friction between a rubber stopper and a wooden ramp the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp The design of this experiment was done by placing a rubber stopper / wooden block onto a wooden ramp and tilting the ramp at a certain degree to cause the stopper / block to move. The measurements of the vertical distance

    wondered how forces link to our life? Everything we’ve learned in science has got me thinking about it. Forces are an essential part of our daily lives. Forces act on all objects. And we need force for everything we do‚ whether it’s a push‚ pull or twist. Force gives an object the energy to move‚ stop moving or change direction. Newton’s first law states that an objects velocity cannot change unless it is acted upon by a force. Here are examples of force in everyday life. A mother pushing

    get to bed until midnight. I don’t even like to think of what life would be like without my computer because I use it through out most of my day. The school I attend requires their students to retrieve all the necessary information for his or her classes via internet. I also use the computer for several other reasons that are equally important. I would say that on average I am on my computer about ten to twenty hours a week. My life would change dramatically‚ since many of the daily functions I
