    RCC Roller Compacted Concrete in history RCC roller compacted concreteThe first Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) dam of the world was Alpe Gera at Sondrio in North Italy. It was executed from 1961 to 1964. The technology in that period is not what it is today. This dam had a total quantity of concrete of 1‚800‚000 cubic meters of concrete. Concrete feeding to the dumpers moving on dam was done by use of 6 cubic meters skips moving on an inclined haulage track. This method of construction was found

We varied both the accelerating force and the mass of the glider. We found that for a given force the acceleration of the glider was inversely proportional to the mass of the glider

    Free Fall Rachel Shea Physics 131 Lab‚ QL Hasbrouck 210 Sept. 21‚ 2014 Abstract This experiment measures the study of motion by observing the force of gravity acting solely upon an object‚ and also measures reaction time. If an object is in free fall‚ the only force acting upon it is gravity. The object used in this experiment was a golf ball that provided some acceleration when dropped. A sensor positioned underneath a table recorded the golf ball’s pattern of motion‚ when dropped. The main

    experiment‚ the objective was to derive a second equation for the value of constant air friction force using the known values of acceleration‚ free fall acceleration (g)‚ and the various masses of the experiment. Theory: According to accepted physics‚ when an object of a larger weight pulls an object of a lesser weight there is a tension that acts between the two objects. However‚ even though the weights of the two objects are different‚ the force that each object exerts on the other is equivalent
