    The objective of the first part of the experiment was to derive an expression‚ under conditions with negligible friction‚ for the acceleration of a cart on a level track when it is attached by a string to a hanging mass at the end of the track. With the value of acceleration and the mass of the weight divided by the mass of the weight plus the mass of the cart‚ a value for free fall acceleration (g) could be determined. For the second part of the experiment‚ the objective was to derive a second equation

    Lab 2: Introduction to DataStudio Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to practice designing an experiment by choosing the variables‚ using DataStudio to collect the data from the experiment‚ and then taking our data and presenting it and our results in a report. Method: For this experiment‚ the goal was to use a simple pendulum (shown to the left) to measure the period of the motion. For task 1‚ we just became familiar with DataStudio and learned how to use it to time each “swing” of the ball

    Measurement in Science Jackie Science 110 Mr. Denslow December 15‚ 2013 Measurement in Science Direct There are 3 direct problems with astronomy. Examples are‚ charting and mapping difficulties‚ military range finding targets‚ and gauging distances to any solar object. A researcher cannot measure something directly if it is not in the grasp of his devices. In which‚ a scientist will have to use geometry to find his answers. However‚ there are boundaries to

    for razor blades (is it?)‚ or that your SSN is higher than mine ( is it?) tells us nothing. In surveys they often use arbitrary numbers to code variables such as religion‚ ethnicity‚ major in college or gender. In fact‚ with nominal variables measurement means: classifying cases in (unordered) groups. (A group can have a single member‚ as it is the case with SSN.) The groups must be --- all-inclusive: they must cover all cases --- mutually exclusive: each case must belong to one and only one group
