Forces What Is a Force? Forces represent the interaction of distinguishable objects. Specific forces: The weight W with magnitude W = m * g acts near Earth’s surface with g the gravitational acceleration. (m= mass) The normal force N is due to contact with a surface. It is directed perpendicular to the surface. The tension T is due to a taut‚ massless string. It is directed along the string. The external contact force Fext acts along the direction of the push. Unit: Force and force

ENERGY RESERVES OF MACROMOLECULES SUMMARY This experiment was conducted in order to show the energy received from the food that humans eat on a daily basis. The energy that is required by the human body to perform chemical reactions is obtained from the chemical bonds that formed between the atoms in the molecules. To calculate the amount energy‚ types of food products were burned underneath a test-tube filled with water. The temperature rise gave an estimate of the energy released per gram.

to do such and they have a much higher energy because of it. I also found that surface tension is measured in forces per unit length and stated in newton’s per meter but it can also be measured as joules per square meter if it is in the use of thermodynamics where it is expressed as work done per unit of area where it is stored as potential energy which is the energy that a piece of matter has because of its position or because of its arrangement of parts. Water molecules that are at the surface

EXPERIMENT 3: ISENTROPIC EXPANSION PROCESS Objective In order to demonstrate the isentropic expansion process. Introduction Isentropic means no change in entropy. Entropy is a thermodynamic property that is the measure of a system’s thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work. In simple terms‚ the measure of the level of disorder in a closed but changing system‚ a system in which energy can only be transferred in one direction from an ordered state to a disordered

Joseph Corey‚ Chris‚ Grant Thermodynamics – Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law I. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to verify Hess’s Law through the three reactions of NaOH and HCl‚ NH4Cl and NaOH‚ and NH3 and HCl. The sum of the enthalpies of the first two reactions should equal the enthalpy of the third reaction. II. Background Hess’s Law is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction from adding two or more preceding reactions. To determine the enthalpies of certain

EXPERIMENT 1: ISENTROPIC EXPANSION PROCESS Objectives: 1) To demonstrate the isentropic expansion process. Introduction: In thermodynamics‚ an isentropic process is a process in which the process takes place from initiation to completion without an increase or decrease in the entropy of the system. One example of a process that approaches being isentropic are the rapid depressurization of gas in a cylinder. The entropy of the system remains in constant. Entropy is a type of energy

Agiapal Sandhu Engl 100 November 12‚ 2014 Introduction A turbofan engine is found on all commercial airliners around the globe. The turbofan engine works by way of a thermodynamic cycle where air is taken into the engine‚ then compressed‚ combusted‚ expanded‚ and finally exhausted out of the engine. This creates thrust in the engine and causes the vehicle to propel forward or backwards. These steps are carried out by the
