    Purpose: To practice direct and indirect measurement Introduction: Do you think you could measure the average thickness of a sample of M&Ms without directly measuring selected M&Ms? The answer is "yes‚" and in this activity you will make direct and indirect measurements of the thickness of M&Ms. You will compare the results and evaluate the reliability of each method of measurement. Be sure to view the tutorial on the proper use of the vernier caliper. Please re-visit the information on when

    In the Tumble Buggy Lab‚ my partners and I used several different methods to calculate the velocity of a Tumble Buggy. The methods we used were a meter stick and a timer‚ a Spark Timer‚ a Photogate‚ and a Motion Sensor. Each method was different but overall‚ our velocities were very similar. Using the meter stick and timer‚ our velocity was 0.22 m/s. With the spark timer‚ our velocity was 0.26 m/s. Next‚ the velocity found with the Photogate was 0.325 m/s. Finally‚ when we used the motion sensor

    Abstract :The purpose of the experiment is to explore elastic and inelastic collisions in order to study the conservation of momentum and energy. The guided track‚ carts‚ photogates ‚ 250 g weight and picket fences were the primary components used in the procedural part of the experiment. Each experiment involved the use of the photogates and picket fences to measure the initial and final velocities of both carts when they collide. The data was collected and translated to a graphical model for further

    My lab results were similar to my hypothesis. My hypothesis was that the densest object would be the rubber stopper. In the lab results the densest object was the penny and the rubber stopper was second. My hypothesis was switched. My hypothesis was correct when I stated that the macaroni was the third densest object. My hypothesis was also correct for the dice‚ but the bead and the dice share the same density. So they are both the fourth densest item. I was wrong with my hypothesis when I placed

    The Physics 500 Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to show how to calculate the average speed and acceleration in six different races. In order to find average speed you will need to use the formula s=d/t (s= speed‚ d=distance‚ t=time). On the other hand‚ for accelaration you will use the formula a= vf-vi/t (a=acceleration‚ vf=final velocity‚ vi= initial velocity‚ t=time). Average speed is how fast something is moving; the path distanced moved per time. Acceleration is the

    Kinetic Friction Experiment #13 Joe Solution E01234567 Partner- Jane Answers PHY 221 Lab Instructor- Nathaniel Franklin Wednesday‚ 11 AM-1 PM Lecture Instructor – Dr. Jacobs Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to examine kinetic friction and what factors affect it. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whether the surface area of the block or the type of surface affects friction. The surface area did not appear to affect friction‚ since there was a small percent difference

    WIRELESS VIBRATION MEASUREMENT SYSTEM Vibrations are caused due to mechanical oscillation of a structure about an equilibrium point. There will be vibrations involved everywhere where there is any rotating system‚ mechanical system is involved. The vibrations involved at in these places will of high frequency. There will some places where the vibrations of lo0w frequency will be present which will also disturb the normal operation of the system or faultiness in the values measured by the system
