Zach Hicks (Z1603274) Karen Richards Section F (0900 - 1150) 11/30/12 The Waiter Problem Solving Part A: Center of Mass in One Direction 1. Since the mass of the plate is a uniform‚ the center of mass is in the center of the plate. The plate has diameter d = 28 cm‚ thus the center of mass is 14 cm from the edge of the plate. In the lab‚ two scenarios will be analyzed; 1) when the glass is standing up‚ and 2) when the glass is laying on its side. When the glass is standing up‚ its mass

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to examine the motion of an electron‚ when it encounters a constant magnetic and electric field. We will also observe when the electric field and magnetic field will cancel each other out. This will lead to the electron having no net force acting upon it. By adjusting the values for the magnetic and electric fields‚ we will be able to check the different paths the electron follows. From this data we will be able to calculate the charge-to-mass ratio. Then

An investigation into the specific heat capacity of a solid Introduction: In this experiment I investigated the specific heat capacity of brass and aluminium‚ in order to do this I arranged a series circuit with a heater‚ the heater would go inside the brass and aluminium and heat it for an amount of time in which I decided‚ I also used the voltmeter in parallel. This arrangement made me able to arrange the equation VIT= mcΔθ‚ since the electrical energy in would be equal to the mass times the

ECON1020 Tutorial 2 Long-Run Economic Growth Chapters 5 & 6 Submission due 6am‚ Monday 23rd of March. Question 1 If we boost productivity‚ we can improve economic growth Tony Abbott (Australian Prime Minister) (a) What is labour productivity? (b) Assuming Mr Abbott was talking about labour productivity‚ discuss this meaning of this quote. Do you agree with it? (c) According to the economic growth model presented in the textbook‚ what are the two key factors which determine labour productivity?

he earned his doctoral degree in physics from the University of Pisa [2]. After receiving his degree‚ he studied under Max Born in Germany at the University of Göttingen in 1923‚ and also under Paul Ehrenfest in the Netherlands at the State University of Leiden in 1924 [1]. This was made possible by receiving fellowships from the Italian Ministry of Public Instruction and Rockefeller Foundation. He returned to Italy to work as a lecturer of Mathematical Physics and Mechanics at the University of

“There are only two ways in which humankind can produce knowledge‚: through passive observations or through active experiment.” To what extent do you agree with this statement? Word count: 1255 Candidate name: Alexander Shum Candidate number: 0049330018 I fully agree the statement in the question. In my opinion‚ I believe that the production of knowledge requires both passive observation and active experiment. Both of them are heavily linked together‚ and are part of a larger process

University of Manchester‚ James Rutherford shot alpha particles at a gold nucleus which in result unveiled the legendary discovery of the structure of the atom. Exactly seventy years later scientists and engineers at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) launched the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) which was designed to achieve quite the same purpose as Rutherford’s‚ particle collisions. However‚ this time the collider was not a simple particle emitter set up on a laboratory table but a circular

Physics can simply be defined as the science that studies the mechanics of matter‚ motion‚ energy‚ and force. Dance in my opinion is a type of performance categorized as a form of art that involves the mind‚ body‚ soul‚ and a little something called physics. Dancing is a personal favorite hobby of mine‚ but I’ve never really considered the physics side of dancing which seems odd considering all the different movements and techniques that involve many principles of physics such as rotational inertia
