Balloon Car Experiment Newton’s First Law of Motion states that when an object is set in motion‚ it will remain in motion until acted on by an outside force. Theoretically‚ this could mean you could travel at the same speed forever in one direction‚ right? The reason we don’t see this happen is because of friction. The force of friction is the resistance to motion that is in the opposite direction of the traveling object. This is why if you roll a ball on the ground it eventually stops. Friction

Good morning/ afternoon everyone First of all‚ thank you for inviting me to this exhibition of Poetry in Motion. I was inspired to create my work based on the poem called This Man‚ by the Solomon Islands poet‚ Celo Kulagoe. This poem is a critique of the all-encompassing power of money‚ which can dictate to presidents and prime ministers alike and can ruin those with few resources. This resonates with the current issue of Coal Seam Gas mining and its wealthy supporters‚ while the dangers to the

EXPERIMENT NO-1 AIM- To determine the frequency of A. C. mains by using an electric vibrator. APPARATUS- Electric vibrator‚ table lamp‚ pulley‚ weight box‚ fishing cord‚ a. c. source. THEORY- when a cord of mass per unit length m is connected to the vibrating rod of the vibrator and stretched with a tension T‚ the cord vibrators in segments. If the length of the cord is then adjusted until the nodes are clearly marked‚ the frequency of the stretched string is the same as of the vibrating rod which

INTRODUCTION: Space‚ Time and motion were three interrelated concepts which have been very difficult by the philosophers to arrive at a proper understanding since the ancient times. By there has been consensus that a proper understanding of motion would lend a hand in addressing the questions on the nature of the other two concepts namely space and time. Depending on the nature of approach to the problem of space and time‚ the philosophers mainly addressed three key concerns. They are as follows:

In the Movie “ Sleepers” a story about four male friends who stole a hot dog cart‚ accidently rolled it down some subway steps and ended up crushing a man. All four friends end up going to a reformatory prison and got sexually assaulted by a guard there named Nokes. All four boys were traumatized by these horrible events that happened but two of the boys held anger and venedict. Years later‚ these two boys happened to see Nokes at a bar. They approached him where he was sitting‚ and they both shot

Introduction In this experiment I aim to find out if caffeine has an effect on the heart rate of daphnia. Daphnia are water fleas that have a sort of heart that we can see in magnification. We can count the number of heart beats in a minute of a regular daphnia and try and get a new one with the same specifications as the old one that may have died. It is also a good idea to get a new one as we want to see how much it affects it from ordinary instead of adding the caffeine one after another

Prior to the 1500’s‚ Europeans lived their daily lives relying greatly on the authority of the church and ancient Greek and Roman authors‚ basing their perception of the world directly by the Bible. However‚ these institutions of authority tended to reject new ideas due to the fear of losing power once contradicting theories take the place of those written in the Bible. For most Europeans‚ change was frightening and difficult to grasp‚ causing very few individuals to challenge the church by making
