Eighth Air Force

Analysis/Discussion: This graph above shows that different heights does affect the speed of a shuttlecock. On the x axis, the data is the height of where the shuttlecock is dropped from, while the y axis is the average speed (m/s). The height where the shuttlecock is dropped increases, as the average speed of each height increases as well. The result of the graph is shown that the line keeps on increasing even if it is not a straight line graph. These results support my hypothesis, which states…

Waking up in the morning knowing that you have a corporate job working from nine to five must be the best feeling ever right? If your job requires you to stay after your eight hour shift, the time in a half pay for overtime must be nice too. Well not everybody has the luxury to say the same. As we know in the United States, most of our everyday products that we use are made overseas. Most of what we buy is from developing countries and is grown and manufactured by workers whose rights were…

on the body. If one does the right exercises, they can improve their vertical highly. Firstly, vertical is something upright or perpendicular(Neilson 2835). To jump, one will “move or throw itself into or through the air”(Gove 1225). A vertical jump is to throw oneself into the air in an upright motion. When training for a higher vertical jump, one should make sure that the training fits their body type. It should not be too overpowering (Tim). If someones training is too intense, the can…

over time. What worked for us humans a few thousand years ago may not be as helpful today? So while our behavior adapts to the changing times and environment, it is thought that it never completely forgets its evolutionary roots. One of the driving forces of some human behavior is something called the “fight or flight response” (also known as the acute stress response). This is the psychology term that describes one of the ways we can react when under stress. Understanding the purpose of the…

explosion burst movements or in the least amount of time possible. The two components of power are strength and speed. E.G. jumping for a header, sprinting to the ball. Power is needed to jumping for header because you need power for your take-off into the air and then the power to head the ball and power is needed for sprinting to the ball because of the start of the sprint you need explosion to get a better start. Strength 2 = Passing Within my chosen activity of football I have decided to…

middle of the ramp. This would keep times from increasing due to obstructions on the surface of the slope. The initial velocity of the trolley was kept consistent throughout trials by letting the trolley roll down on its own rather than applying force to it by pushing it downwards. This kept the initial velocity from changing throughout trials and allowed the results to be as accurate as…

It is amazing what we can do to our bodies to relieve stress. The hustle and bustle of our everyday lives make stress inevitable. Interestingly, the ear massage has been proven to be quite effective when it comes to treating various ailments. An ear massage is an easy task which you can perform at the comfort of your home or office. This is a technique that should be done daily so as to provide efficient results in the long-run. Moreover, there are different massage therapies to treat medical…

ANEROID – sensitive component in an altimeter or barometer that measures absolute pressure of the air. -Sealed, flat capsule made of thin corrugated disks of metal soldered together and evacuated by pumping all of the air out of it.…

experiment, we use the mass of an object as an independent variable to come to a conclusion about force and acceleration. By increasing the mass of an object at an incline, one can observe the change in acceleration and furthermore determine the net force acting on the object. With several calculations and graphs to illustrate our results, we shall strengthen implications of the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. Introduction Mass is defined as. Acceleration is defined as…

The mass spring system has two properties, Mass and Stiffness. Air also has two similar properties, mass and elasticity. Stiffness and elasticity are interchangeable quantities as both possess the same features. A spring is a highly elastic object which can be displaced from equilibrium through applying a force to the mass. This is generally done by compressing or stretching the spring. By compressing the spring, the spring is displaced from equilibrium and moved towards the right,…
