oven drying method Reference: ASTM D2216-98 Need and scope of the experiment: In almost all soil tests natural moisture content of the soil is to be determined. The knowledge of the natural moisture content is essential in all studies of soil mechanics. To sight a few‚ natural moisture content is used in determining the bearing capacity and settlement. The natural moisture content will give an idea of the state of soil in the field. Apparatus: 1. Containers (Tin or Aluminum) with lids.

Exploring the virtual reality conjecture Brian Whitworth Introduction Computers today simulate entire worlds‚ with their own time‚ space and objects‚ but that our world could be so is normally a topic of science fiction‚ not physics. Yet that the world is illusory has a long history. In Buddhism‚ the world expresses the Universal Mind‚ in Hinduism it is Maya‚ the illusion of "God’s play”‚ and to Plato it was just shadows flickering on a wall1. That the world is digital is also not new‚ as to

biomechanics can benefit an athlete? Biomechanics is a branch of sport science‚ through the understanding of the internal and external forces which act on an athlete effecting their performance. For an athlete learning the functional anatomy and mechanics of movement will help the athlete learn the skill‚ develop the skill‚ and to help the athlete be able to correct any errors that may need to fixed. for example: 1. Coaches use their understanding of biomechanics to make modifications to the athletes

What I Want To Do In My Future In the future‚ I plan on graduating from high school and going to college to be a collision repair technician. I want to be a collision repair technician because I like to work on cars. When I watch T.V. and they work on cars‚ I start wishing that I could do that too. I love to help my dad work on his cars. I know it’s not a “girly” type thing to do but it’s what I love doing. A collision repair technician evaluates collision damage and performs body repair on

Stephen Hawking has been hailed as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists since Albert Einstein. Hawking was born on January 8‚ 1942‚ which as he likes to point out is the 300th anniversary of Galileo’s death. Hawking originally studied at Oxford University in England studying physics even though he would have preferred math. He moved onto Cambridge University to work on his PhD in cosmology. Hawking’s career has focused upon the cosmic entities known as black holes‚ and has extended

compression‚ and has intake and exhausted valves (Ham). In 1903 the Ford Motor Company formed. The Ford Motor Company was founded by the Malcomson group with Henry Ford in the lead. Henry Ford was the face of the ford motor and the mind behind the mechanics. Henry Ford was passionate about how cars ran and every year their performance improved. In 1908 they started making the Model T on the assembly line‚ making cars affordable and efficient. The rest‚ as they say‚ is history (Davis). At least that’s
