How Does Temperature affect the Ability to Bounce of a Ping-Pong ball? Physics Design Practical Research Question How is the bounce-height of a ping pong ball affected by it’s temperature? This research questions aims to find out how the temperature of a ping pong ball affects the vertical height bounce‚ after being dropped from 1 metre. I will be measuring the bounce height using a video camera to find the heightest point. I will use the top of the ball for ease of results. Hypothesis:

The University of Sydney Aerospace‚ Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering MECH3260 Thermal Engineering Heat Transfer Quiz 3 2007 Time: 40 minutes Answer ONE question only. Question 1 Consider the cylindrical receiver in a solar thermal power plant shown below. The receiver is made of opaque material and has a diameter D = 8m and length L = 14m. At a particular time‚ the heliostats direct a concentrated solar flux of q”S = 80 kW/m2

PROBLEM Investigate the heat energy in a range of alcohol’s used as fuels. HYPOTHESIS I predict that octanol will release the most heat energy. This is because there is more bond energy in that molecule than the other alcohols. Within a molecule there are bond energies that are holding the atoms together. When the fuel combusts a chemical reaction takes place‚ this breaks the bonds‚ this requires energy‚ and makes new bonds this gives out energy. The energy differences between the two tell us

A total hip joint replacement usually composed of two main components articulating with one another‚ a polymeric acetabular cup against a metal or ceramic femoral head component [1]. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a key player in the total hip joint replacement as an acetabular cup since more than half a century‚ due to their unique properties such as high wear resistance‚ strength and modulus‚ excellent toughness‚ chemical resistance and impact‚ low moisture absorption‚ good

The purpose of this experiment was to discover the suitable ways of organizing experimental data in the form of tables and graphs by proficiently using Microsoft Excel. After being provided with a set of experimental data‚ a graph is then created. The graph contains useful information such as the slope‚ which could give the density value. The calculation of significant figures was one of the key objectives in this lab as well. Significant figures are essential to interpreting data because they allow

Exercise Physiology Responses To Steady-State Exercise Once an athlete has been performing continuous exercise for a period of around 20 minutes‚ their body reaches a steady-state. Continuous exercise includes all forms of exercise that have no stopping periods such as jogging‚ swimming or cycling. Examples of non-continuous exercise would be weight lifting‚ interval training and boxing. Steady state is when the body is working at a steady state it means that lactic acid removal is occurring

Calorimetry: Enthalpy of Neutralization Introduction: The purpose of this lab experiment was to determine the molar concentration of the unknown HCl by using a coffee cup calorimeter. A coffee cup calorimeter is made of Styrofoam cups with a thermometer that is placed from the top and into the calorimeter to measure the temperature as the reaction happens. The Styrofoam cup used for the calorimeter creates an isolated system as it acts as a heat insulator between the cup and the surrounding
