Lab 1 – Measurement of Space and Time Anthony Lucci Lab Partner: Amy Hayes Question 4: Both the height and diameter of the cylinder were taken to find the volume; five times for both measurements. Vernier calipers were used to get these measurements by clamping the cylinder between the jaws of the calipers. By looking at the mark of the zero‚ in relation to the main scale‚ the line best lined up with a line from the main scale was taken down. Getting

storing charge in the form of electric field. In its simplest from‚ It consists basically consists of two conductors which are separated by a dielectric medium (non-conductor) such as air‚ waxed paper‚ plastics‚ etc. The capacitance of capacitor is directly proportional to the surface areas and the inverse of the separation of the two conductors. The dielectric constant of the non-conductor is also affecting the capacitance. FIGURE 1 Capacitor symbol For an ideal capacitor‚ the capacitor current

The abductor pollicis longus in flying squirrels is a prominent muscle‚ despite the fact that the thumb is minuscule. It takes origin from the extensor surfaces of the radius and ulna‚ as in other squirrels‚ and the tendon passes through the radial compartment of the wrist superficial to the tendons of the extensor carpi radialis brevis and longus muscles. The tendon of the abductor pollicis longus bifurcates with one part inserting on the metacarpal of the thumb and the other part inserting on the

By “electric current”‚ I mean by the rate at which electric charges moves through a circuit‚ the electric charges can either be ions or electrons. They are measured in ammeters and the unit that is measured in is ampere which is the number of charges that passes through per second. There are many factors which would affect the electric current‚ like the voltage of

Theory behind my experiment Thickness (cross sectional area of the wire)‚ length‚ and temperature all have some effect on the amount of resistance created in a wire. Another factor is the conductivity of the material we are using. Some metals are just more electrically conductive than others. As long as I use the same type of metal for each wire‚ my experiment will remain fair. Cross Sectional Area The thicker the wire‚ the less resistant it is. This is because there are more electrons

Experiment 1.7: Graphical Analysis of Motion Introduction To graphically analyze motion‚ two graphs are commonly used: Displacement vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time. These two graphs provide significant information about motion including distance/displacement‚ speed/velocity‚ and acceleration. The displacement and acceleration of a moving body can be obtained from its Velocity vs. Time graph by respectively finding the area and the slope of the graph. Data Tables – Part I Displacement
