Sadie D. Hood Lab 8: Moment of Inertia Partner: Florence Doval Due 16 November 2011 Aims: To use a centripetal force apparatus to calculate the moment of inertia of rotating weights‚ using theories derived from ideas of energy transfer (Im = MR2 (g/2h)(t2-t02)) and point mass appoximation (m1r12 + m2r22). Set Up Procedure First we measured the weights of two masses and wingnuts that secure them. Then we placed one of the masses on the very end of a horizontal rod on the centripetal force apparatus

I ’ll spend my whole morning with a bunch of street kids . From what I know ‚ street kids are mostly ill-mannered . What a waste of time ‚ I know I won ’t get anything from it anyway . I might even get into a fight with those kids . But still I went to the home just to comply with the school requirement . I almost dragged my feet when we entered the home . The home supervisor met us at the entrance and led us to a room which she called their play area . When we opened the door ‚ about 20 kids

Texting While Driving vs Drinking While Driving For decades‚ drunk driving has been at the forefront of debate. Stricter laws have been passed across the nation leading to a decrease in drunk driving accidents. However‚ a new driving threat is quickly taking its place. That threat is texting while driving and many say that it is actually more dangerous than drunk driving. Texting while driving a vehicle has now replaced drinking while driving as the leading cause of accidents and deaths of teenage

MOMENT OF INERTIA Chua‚ Richard Janssen J.‚ PHY11L/A3 chardsenchua77@yahoo.com Abstract The moment of inertia‚ or also known as the rotational inertia‚ is the rotational analog of a rigid body to a linear or an angular motion. It is one of the fundamentals of the dynamics of rotational motion. The moment of inertia must always be in a specified chosen axis of rotation. The point of motion is basically defined as the relationship between mass and the perpendicular distance to the rotational

It was during the last summer break‚ my husband and I went to hike across the Alps on an ‘inn_ to_inn’ treak starting in the Alpi maritime nature reserve in Italy and finishing at the Mediterranean sea near the stunning town of Menton on the French Riviera. On our way from the mountains to the seaside‚ which is known as‚ ‘Route ‘de sel’ we explored classic‚ high alpine landscapes‚ bronze age‚ petroglyphs‚ and the historical villages and hamlets of the royal valley which boasts exquisite painted chapels

In the U.S. Constitution the right to bare arms is a liberty given to those citizens who qualified to do so under their first amendment rights. Many people are torn about the right to bare arms and some lobby more increasingly by the days to have more laws to further restrict gun laws. On the other side of the

Katsushika Hokusai’s The Great Wave off Kanagawa is one of the most iconic works in the history of Japanese art. Presumably created in Japan around 1829-1832‚ the woodblock print was part of the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series which featured ravishing sceneries of Mount Fuji. Being the first print in the series‚ The Great Wave off Kanagawa was a phenomenal success. Hence‚ Hokusai added ten more designs into the collection. Before the emergence of Japanese printmakers such as Katsushika Hokusai
