Experiment 5 Polytropic Expansion of Air Object The object of this experiment is to find the relation between pressure and volume for the expansion of air in a pressure vessel – this expansion is a thermodynamic process. Introduction The expansion or compression of a gas can be described by the polytropic relation ‚ where p is pressure‚ v is specific volume‚ c is a constant and the exponent n depends on the thermodynamic process. In our experiment compressed air in a steel

temperatures Abstract: The experiment at hand aimed to determine if the species Duguesia tigrina has an optimal temperature for regeneration. The experiment used three different spring water treatments of different temperatures. The treatments included a cool 12° treatment‚ a room temperature 25° treatment‚ and a warm 30° treatment. Each of the D. tigrina were cut in half‚ and each half was placed into a designated section of a water treatment‚ and observed over a one week time period. Three replicates of the

Introduction: The purpose of the plant growth experiment was to test the affect of plant fertilizer during plant growth. The system we were working with allowed us to test the recommended amount and double the recommended amount of Miracle Grow in comparison to a control of an all natural growing plant. The plants we were testing were radishes We decided on testing the validity of Miracle Grow with radishes to determine if fertilizers are worth purchasing. Hypothesis: If the recommended amount
