determine both the theoretical and actual support reactions of a simple vertically loaded beam‚ showing that the loadings on the supports are directly proportional to the distances of the loads from the supports; thus illustrating the principle of the moments of forces. 2. To determine the beam support reactions for a horizontal beam carrying vertical loads at positions across the span. APPARATUS Two support stands‚ beam of uniform round bar‚ load hangers‚ known loads‚ two spring balances with suitable

Inertia (Law of Inertia) Name _____________________ Section _________ Date ______ The law of acceleration explains how a net force makes a mass accelerate. It shows how the magnitude of the acceleration depends on the magnitude of the force (directly proportional) and on the magnitude of the mass (inversely proportional). Acceleration happens only when there is an unbalanced force. Where All Forces Are Balanced No change of velocity occurs when the forces acting a body are balanced

person‚ the easier it will be to stop. We all experience this every day. The reason for this‚ is because of the inertia of the moving object. An object will continue to move at a constant velocity unless acted upon on an external force. The magnitude of this force is dependent on the weight of the object. It makes logical sense to think more mass will require more energy. The inertia of an object is it’s resistance to change in motion‚ if an object is stationary‚ it will stay stationary. If an object

1. Thermal inertia is a measure of the thermal mass and the velocity of the thermal wave which controls the surface temperature of a material. In heat transfer‚ a higher value of the volumetric heat capacity means a longer time for the system to reach equilibrium. 2. The ocean acts as a massive heat-retaining solar panel. 3. Salinity‚ temperature and depth all affect the density of seawater. 4. A pycnocline is the cline or layer where the density gradient (∂ρ⁄∂z) is greatest within a body of water

Inertia Inertia is the tendency for a body to either remain at rest or move in a straight line at a constant speed‚ unless acted up by an unbalanced force. In both cases‚ the item has an acceleration of zero. Inertia is not a force‚ but rather a resistance to a change in velocity. In other words‚ the object wants to stay put or stay constant‚ and inertia is what happens when a force gives it acceleration. An example of inertia in the physical world happens while riding in a car. The driver

Applied mechanics laboratory report “Measurement of bending moment and shear forces for structural analysis” Azamat Omarov ID201102658 1.Theory and background 1.1 Summary That performed laboratory session on bending moments and shear forces requires good understanding and sufficient knowledge of axial forces. Bending is defined as a behavior of any structural element that undergoes the external load‚ which is applied perpendicularly to longitudinal axis. That experiment helps us to find

Inertia is the tendency of something to go unchanged; it follows that cultural inertia‚ a topic in sociology‚ is the resistance for a culture to change. Cultural inertia may work to prevent a more desirable or efficient outcome for society. Nevertheless‚ there are often attempts to break free from cultural inertia to increase the quality of life for a group of people. Soylent is one of these attempts. Rhinehart and the other makers of Soylent are seeking to streamline our daily lives by partially

Hypothesis: A parachute with a larger surface area would fall slower due to that fact there would be a higher level of drag‚ or in other words more air resistance. Materials: * Sturdy garbage bags * Metric ruler * Scissors * Washers * Twist ties * Light-weight string * Stopwatch Method:

the first day of kindergarden. It was a sunny day in January 2001‚ I was all alone with no one to talk to. Scared and nervous‚ but she walked over and started talking to me. I knew we would be best friend. We were closer than ever and we spent every moment together. Ever since then‚ it had been nothing but a strong friendship. On a clear summer night‚ I was staring up at the sparkling sky‚ swaying on the playground swing. My best friend of 12 years sat quietly on the swing next to me. Suddenly‚ there
