The Speed of Toy Cars & Measuring Acceleration Introduction: The Speed of Toy Cars & Measuring Acceleration was investigated by using a ticker timer and changing the angle of the ramp. Changing the angle of the ramp affects the speed and acceleration of the trolley. The speed and acceleration of the trolley was determined by using the ticker timer. Aim: The aim of the practical is to investigate the motion and acceleration of a trolley by using a ticker timer and rolling the trolley down a ramp

route the only problem you may run into is‚ try to explain how the sperm got to the egg in the first place. The first thing to start of the discussion should be naming the two most important necessary things that are a must in order to make a baby and that are the sperm and the egg. After explain what these are you can then comfortably move onto the journey of the sperm and its final destination the egg. Explaining what these two things are and how they are made will make it a lot easier

MEASURING pH Date of Lab: 02/09/13 Date Report submitted: 02/26/13 Purpose of the experiment By doing this experiment‚ we were trying to learn how to measure a pH with a pH meter to determine whether a solution is weakly‚ moderately or strongly acidic or basic; but also to compare the different data founded to see how the addition of certain liquid to a solution may affect the pH of the initial solution. Materials We used: * Tap water‚ distilled water‚ Soda and milk as the main

Kimberley Flood Group A Standard broiler chickens are reared for their meat have been selectively bred to grow incredibly fast‚ and now reach slaughter weight at about 6 weeks old. Broiler chickens now reach slaughter age twice as quickly as they did 30 years ago. But this fast growth leaves the birds vulnerable to painful leg problems and heart disorders. The muscle grows very quickly but the development of the bird ’s legs and skeleton does not keep pace with the rest of the body. Therefore the

How much salt must be added to a glass of water for an egg to float? Hypothesis: I believe it will take 5 tbsp. of salt to be added to water for an egg to float. My reason is that I think that 5 tbsp. of salt is very heavy and will make the water heavy enough to float the egg. I must make the water heavy enough to float the egg. If the water has enough salt it will float. Materials Used: Eggs – 2 medium sized chicken eggs (2.0oz each) Natural Sea Salt Iodized Salt (table salt)

Osmosis Practical Report Introduction: To determine the biological changes that occur to potato cores over a period of time in different solutions of sucrose and to relate these changes to the phenomenon of osmosis. Method: We soaked several discs of potato cuted using a cork borer with around 1 centimeter of diameter and 2 milimeters of lenght into sucrose solutions with a different range of concentrations from 0 to 1.0M. Then we weighed all the potato

concentrations on the activity of osmosis in plant tissue. Background scientific theory: Plants exchange gases (CO2 and O2) in maintaining vital respiratory processes and in carrying out photosynthesis; they absorb certain minerals and sugars so to use as a source of energy and eradicate wastes in order to maintain specific requirements for survival. Large amounts of water are absorbed by root hairs and are then distributed across the cells of plants by the process of osmosis; water being essential to
