Friction Cynthia Clark Student No. xxxxx May 19‚ 2009 Abstract This experiment measures the coefficient of static friction (μs) and kinetic friction (μk) between objects of different materials. Friction is a force that must be overcome before an object can move across a surface. A plain block of wood and a block of wood with sandpaper on one side and glass on the other were used. All of the blocks had a soup can with a mass of 0.41

Pipe Friction Summary The purpose of this lab is to find the friction factor and Reynolds number for laminar and turbulent flow and also for values in the critical zone. Results were taken recorded and used to calculate the friction factor and Reynolds number. They were then compared with the Moody diagram. Aim This lab could be used in industry when dealing with a pipe line containing any type of liquid to calculate the Reynolds number and friction factor. It would also help in pipe

EFFECT OF SURFACE AREA ON AIR FRICTION Design Background Information: Air resistance‚ also called drag‚ is the forces that are in opposition to the relative motion of an object through the air. Drag forces act opposite to the oncoming flow velocity. Size and shape are the two factors that affect air resistance. Air resistance depends on the surface area‚ so‚ as the surface area increases‚ the air resistance increases. When an object is falling‚ air resistance acts to push it back up. This is

2 devices that use static electricity to funtion 1. Van de Graaff generator When the motor is turned on‚ the lower roller (charger) begins turning the belt. The belt is made of rubber and the lower roller is covered in silicon tape‚ the lower roller begins to build a negative charge and the belt builds a positive charge. Silicon is more negative than rubber so the lower roller is receiving electrons from the belt when it goes over the roller. The positively charged atomic nuclei‚ try to

Part One: The friction model is the idea that there are various sources that work together to keep policies in place so that the status quo prevails for extended periods of time. There are many different players within the friction model that try to help protect the status quo‚ but other ideas that try to go against the model and change it. The friction model has a head start as it is much easier to protect the status quo than to change it. A major problem policy changer’s face is lack of attention

This paper is to identify possible sources of intergenerational friction‚ and to describe how this differences could be managed in occupational setting. Today is the time when multiple generations are working side by side. Each generation has some distinctly different expectations and perceptions about what their working environment will provide and how they should behave as employees. Therefore‚ many organizations today are challenged by intergenerational issues they have never experience before

____________________________ Objectives: (1) To determine the amount of NaHCO3 in Alka Seltzer tablets by observing the amount of CO2 produced from the acid-base reaction of HCO3- with acetic acid (in vinegar). (2) To study the concept of limiting reactant. Background: Alka Seltzer is an effervescent tablet that contains aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid)‚ citric acid‚ and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). As soon as the tablet dissolves in water‚ the NaHCO3 dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion
