Sixty-one years ago last November‚ John Bardeen and Walter Brattain discovered the transistor at Bell Labs‚ in 1951. Before this‚ electronics used tubes‚ which happened to be extremely bulky‚ generated lots of heat‚ and had short life spans. The invention of smaller‚ more efficient‚ and more durable transistors brought a revolution in electronics. They became an important discovery that changed the world forever. The first ideas and experimentation with solid-state electronics began in 1874‚ but

Nov. 05‚ 2013 PHY10L/A11 Experiment # 2 KINEMATICS Abstract - Kinematics of linear motion is defined as the studies of motion of objects without considering the effects that produce the motion. This experiment will show how to determine the linear motion with constant (uniform) velocity particularly the dynamic cart and linear motion with constant (uniform) acceleration‚ (e.g. free fall of motion). At the end of the experiment we found out that the velocity is a speed that involves direction

Projectile Motion Purpose: Apply the concepts of two-dimensional kinematics (projectile motion) to predict the impact point of an object as its velocity increases. Introduction: The most common example of an object that is moving in two dimensions is a projectile. A projectile is an object upon which the only force acting is gravity. That is to say a projectile is any object that once projected or dropped continues in motion by its own‚ and is influenced only by the downward force

Lab Report Compound Pendulum in different medium Raoul Corstjens IS10a Introduction An oscillating object is a mass that follows a pattern that causes the mass to return to its initial position after completing one complete oscillation in a constant certain amount of time. This experiment aims to show how the medium that a simple pendulum is traveling though affects the frequency of the pendulum. Research Question How does the medium that a simple pendulum is traveling though affect the frequency

Two bricks are resting on edge of the lab table. Shirley Sheshort stands on her toes and spots the two bricks. She acquires an intense desire to know which of the two bricks are most massive. Since Shirley is vertically challenged‚ she is unable to reach high enough and lift the bricks; she

and theories of anthropology while applying them to a virtual world. The title of the book is a play on Margret Mead’s classic work Coming of Age in Samoa (1928). Second Life is a platform created by Linden Lab. Their aim was to create a “revolutionary new form of shared 3D experience” (Linden Labs). Coming of Age in Second Life is divided into three parts and nine chapters. The first part‚ titled “Setting the Virtual Stage” contains three background chapters that set the context of the research.

Curvilinear Motion Projectile Motion When the player hits the “Sepak”‚ the motion of the “Sepak” is called projectile motion. The “Sepak” itself is called projectile. The “Sepak” will follow a parabolic path called trajectory especially if air resistance is negligible. Two coordinates are usually used to describe projectile motion: horizontal and vertical axes. The horizontal distance traveled by the projectile is called the range. While the vertical distance‚ that is‚ the distance from where
