    blueberries change its properties after some time. So, the device will use their properties as its working methodology. Then it will select fresh blueberries on the basis of their properties. Theory: As blueberries age or become bruised, they tend to soften. Therefore, their coefficient of restitution decreases. First we need to understand what is coefficient of restitution. Coefficient of Restitution: COR is the extent of restitution of an impact between two objects. Also, for the kinetic energy how long it remains for the objects to bounce from each other. COR = e = (Relative velocity after collision)/(Relative velocity before collision) Range of Coefficient of Restitution: For COR range, it’s between 0 and 1.0. e = 0: Perfectly inelastic. The items don 't move separated after the impact. 0 < e < 1: Inelastic. Kinetic energy disappears. e = 1: Perfectly elastic. Kinetic energy remains. e < 0: When velocity of share equal directions. e > 1: When energy is free. Mathematical Expressions: Coefficient of restitution: e = (Vb-Va)/(Ub-Ua) Object’s velocity after impact: e = V/U Design: The form of design is shown in the figure below. Explanation: Here, blueberries are dropped from a height of 5 ft on an inclined plane. If the blueberry is fresh one, it will bounce back with huge force and will go above the hurdle of height “h” direct into a collecting bucket. If the blueberry is bruised or aged,…

    if one object loses momentum the other object must gain an equal amount of momentum. An isolated system is one which the only forces are between the bodies that are colliding or exploding, no outside forces must be acting. (M.Mann, 2013) Investigative Question: Is momentum conserved during the collision of a brick and a trolley? Hypothesis: The momentum of the trolley before the collision will be equal to the…

    motorcyclists are more likely to be killed or severely injured in crashes during racing or off road riding. You’ll lose 1mm of flesh for every 1mph you're going over 30mph when you hit road. Hence riders wear armour to protect against injury from falling off, hitting other riders and bikes, debris kicked up from the rear wheel of leading bikes, and from running into track barriers protecting the public. This armour protects the extremities from breakage and dislocation and the back and chest…
