Experiment 9: THE TANGENT GALVANOMETER; PURPOSE: In this experiment we will measure the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth’s Magnetic field by the use of an instrument called a tangent galvanometer. INTRODUCTION: A tangent galvanometer consists of a number of turns of copper wire wound on a hoop. At the center of the hoop a compass is mounted. When a direct current flows through the wires‚ a magnetic field is induced in the space surrounding the loops of

.Physics is the field of scince that controls the Earth‚ the Moon‚ the Sun and the Universe It is the science of matter and its motion‚ space-time and energy. Physics describes many forms of energy - such as kinetic energy‚ electrical energy‚ and mass; and the way energy can change from one form to another. Everything surrounding to us is made of matter and Physics explains matter as combinations of fundamental particles which are interacting through fundamental forces. It will not be an exaggeration

Austin Vandermey GS-1140 April 4th‚ 2015 Experiment We as a society have one big problem on our hands. This problem is sleep deprivation because there are not enough hours in the day to get stuff done. Between work‚ school‚ family‚ and leisure it seems like we do not have enough time to get are daily tasks done let alone have time for sleep. It is recommended by the U.S Department of Health that people need a solid eight hours of sleep to maintain good health. I don’t know about you

They usually don ’t think about connecting athletics with academics. In reality math‚ science‚ and especially physics‚ tie into every aspect of sports. Sports are a commonality that brings nations together‚ Soccer‚ known as football to most of the world‚ is said to an unspoken language‚ which unties people from different lands
