Investigation into relationship between height of fall of an object and the radius of the crater formed in sand as a result of the impact. By Ivan Cocklove Design Defining the problem and selecting the variables: I will investigate how the height from which a mass falls onto flat surface of sand affects the radius of the crater formed as a result of the impact. The height from which the ball is dropped is affecting the speed at the impact because the higher the drop‚ the longer the ball will

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

Year 11 Preliminary Assignment #2 – Physics Electricity in the Home Aim: Will the current (Amps) affect the time it takes for a slot car to complete a lap of the track? Planning the investigation: 1. What do you know about the topic from personal experience? From playing with slot cars and building tracks even before I embarked on the physics course‚ I’d always realised the relationship between the trigger and the speed of the cars. In the investigation‚ I hope to use a more scientific method

Crater Design Experiment Aim: To see how the height in which the ball is dropped from affects the depth of the crater. Hypothesis: I predict that as the height in which the ball is dropped from increases‚ so does the depth of the crater (the data will be directly proportional). The scientific knowledge which supports this is that the golf ball has a gravitational potential energy which increases as the ball is dropped from higher heights. When the height increases the ball gains more gravitational

Accident Investigation Physics‚ Module 2 - Honors Extension Introduction: After a motor vehicle accident occurs‚ it will usually be investigated. Sometimes it will be reconstructed. The people that perform these duties are police and independent investigators. Accident investigation: The police will investigate an accident focused on any criminal actions which took place during the accident. For example: speeding‚ alcohol use‚ drug use‚ etc would be considered a criminal action

Crater Lake Crater Lake is located at southwestern off Highway 62 in Oregon. It is Oregon?s only national park. It is the deepest lake in the United States and is the seventh deepest in the world. Crater Lake has an average diameter of 5.3 miles in length and is approximately 1‚932 feet deep. Crater Lake is a result of a volcanic explosion that happened about 7‚000 years ago. A long time ago‚ the pacific oceanic plate was gradually moving under the pacific continental plate in the process

the sun’s warmth on my face peeking over from behind the rim of Crater Lake National Park in Oregon‚ I am wide awake. I open my tent to see deep‚ vivid reds and pinks‚ along with bright oranges and yellows and the luminous sun in the middle of nature’s masterpiece. Although it is only around forty degrees this morning‚ I can feel my heart burning with the desire to explore the various park features. It is only my first day at Crater Lake‚ and I can already feel myself beginning to love this unique
