Table of Contents 1.0 Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine how the height of a horizontally launched projectile affects the projectiles range. 2.0 Theory: Galileo showed an appreciation for the proper relationship between mathematics‚ theoretical physics‚ and experimental physics. Galileo discovered that a parabola was the theoretically ideal trajectory of an accelerated projectile in the absence of friction and other disturbances. Galileo agreed that there are

preference for flower heights within the species of a plant. The incidence of Zizina otis lampa and Junonia almana javana butterflies landings on the Sphagneticola trilobata plant of different flower heights is studied with the aim of establishing a relationship between flower heights of the plant and frequency of butterfly landings. Results were obtained through visual measurement over eight hours‚ which suggested an existence of a general as well as species-specific preference of heights‚ with the Zizina

Introduction: My aim is to investigate the relationship between weights and heights of mammals and amphibians. My main hypothesis is: heavier an animal the taller it will be. Sub-hypothesis: I believe there will be a stronger correlation between height and weight for mammals. I also believe that on average mammals are going to weigh more and be taller than amphibians. My plan is to collect data from many sources which will make my results more reliable. The data used for my investigation has been

will affect the water‚ causing some amount to splashed out. When the ball is released from a height‚ its initial potential energy combined with the gravitational energy form a kinetic energy‚ which transmitted to the water. So I will investigate the relationship of drop height of the ball and the amount of water splashed out. Research question: How does the volume of water splashed out depend on drop height of the ball? Explanation for controlled variable: The change in mass in ball will affect the

Aim To determine whether the height at which a marble is dropped affect the size of the crater. Scientific knowledge Impact craters are geologic structures formed when a large meteorite‚ asteroid or comet smashes in to a planet or a satellite. Meteorites are small rocks in space that hit the earth’s atmosphere at a high velocity. Throughout their history they have heavily bombarded all the inner bodies in our solar system. In this experiment we will use marbles as our meteorites‚ these will be
