PE/DB/0313 FLUID MECHANICS Page 2 of 2 H7 Friction Loss in a Pipe Description Experiments The Friction Loss in a Pipe apparatus allows students to study the change in the laws of resistance for laminar to turbulent flow and find the critical Reynolds number. The apparatus shows the flow transition point from laminar to turbulent‚ and is ideal for demonstrations as well as student experiments. Study of friction loss in a pipe‚ including: The equipment is a small-bore‚ straight

into a petri-dish and the cylinder removed and blotted with filter paper‚ throwing the liquid away from the petri-dish after each cylinder was removed. 7) The length and texture of each potato cylinder was recorded in a table. Discussion: In the experiment‚ I believe the phenomenon to take place is osmosis. Osmosis is the movement/diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration of water molecules (high water potential) to an area of a low concentration

By contrast field experiments take place in more natural but less controlled experiments. Although experiments are very successful in science they are rarely used in Sociology for the following

“It is one thing to mortify curiosity‚ another to conquer it… (page 37)”. In Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde‚ the main purpose of Jekyll’s experiments are to liberate himself‚ or in other words‚ to free himself from the evil part within him. He succeeds in many ways‚ which include the outcome of Jekyll taking the potion he created‚ and successfully releases his evil side through Mr. Hyde. He fails in many ways as well‚ including Hyde losing control and Jekyll

Part I - Illumination Experiments (1924-27) These experiments were performed to find out the effect of different levels of illumination (lighting) on productivity of labour. The brightness of the light was increased and decreased to find out the effect on the productivity of the test group. Surprisingly‚ the productivity increased even when the level of illumination was decreased. It was concluded that factors other than light were also important. Part II - Relay Assembly Test Room Study (1927-1929)

Breaching Experiment In the eye contact experiment I decided to do this in a room with about six of my friends while watching the All Star game‚ I used my Girlfriend. I waited until everyone was focused on the game and then begin to stare at her from across the room‚ at first her reaction was to wave at me and smile then she started to look around to see if I was starring at someone else‚ then she told her best friend "I don’t know what’s his problem‚ he is being too weird." I extended my eye contact

Title: An investigation into the impact of group pressure on an individual’s estimate of the amount of beads in a pot (ginger granules in a jar). IV = Group/Individual DV = Individual beads estimate Abstract This experiment investigated the impact of group pressure on the individual. The hypothesis is that group pressure does indeed impact on the individual and in this case the individual’s estimate of the number of ginger granules in a jar. Participants were asked to make a judgement of

In order to find the connection between the level of education and income‚ research methods need to established. To find the relationship between the two‚ I would use the methods of survey and experiments. Survey method allows a collection of a specific population and from that populations a sample population can be extracted to represent the whole. Given a random survey preformed at a local festival would give the general population a chance to participate since all sorts of people attend community
