Viscosity and Flow Rate by Hasnain S. and Vinh T. What is Viscosity: Viscosity is the measurement of how fast a fluid will flow. In other words, it is the “thickness” or “thinness” of a fluid. The internal friction or resistance it has as well as the temperature in which the fluid is at determines the viscosity of the substance as well. If there is more internal resistance or friction, then the particles of the substance won’t slid past each other as easily and therefore make the substance…

TASK 12: Anything that has a mass and takes up space is known as matter. Energy is what can cause a change to matter. As energy cannot be created or destroyed, it gets stored or transferred. Kinetic energy is what a substance possesses due to it being in motion. The kinetic theory of matter states that matter is made up of small particles that are constantly in motion with spaces between them. (Andrew Rader Studios. Matter is the Stuff Around You. 1997-2015) There are 3 main phases of matter…

I was around the age of Ten when I first caught a fish in Canada. It was in the middle of a hot summer day. There was the smell of newly bloomed flowers in the air. We were getting ready to board the boat when a bald eagle soared across the baby blue summer sky. The engine had just been turned on, and you could hear the steady beating drum of the motor, and you could smell the pungent odor of gasoline being burned. We had been gliding and bouncing over the dark murkey water for what felt like…

How much energy does dribbling take? We understand that dribbling in various places requires a lot of energy. Basketball players know that certain playing areas such as asphalt, hardwood, and cement requires different types of dribbling. In order to dribble the ball players have to keep putting energy into the ball. Energy is required to dribble a ball as well as more energy may be required to dribble in different places. You would soon find out why energy is required to dribble the ball and how…

are converted into products, and hence a sufficient heating period so that equilibrium can be established, and thus a larger yield of the ester can be formed. This would also allow the particles in the reaction to gain sufficient energy to overcome the activation energy barrier for successful collision to produce the ester. An increased concentration of one of the reactants (e.g. the acid or alcohol) could be used to push the equilibrium to the right, and thus improve the yield of ester. This…

Discovering that your air conditioner doesn't work during one of the hottest days of the summer is probably one of the worst things you could experience. Unfortunately, it's not all that uncommon. Luckily, you can help speed up the repair process by knowing the reasons why it might have failed. So why might an air conditioner stop working? Here are three common reasons: 1. Thermostat Stetting One of the most common reasons for an air conditioner to stop working properly is due to the…

Angular Acceleration is described as the rate of change of angular velocity, it is also recognized as rotational acceleration. According to the author the magnitudes and lengths of angular acceleration vectors are proportional to the rate of change of angular velocity. Depending on the direction in which an object such a platter is rotation the angular acceleration could be pointing toward or away the observer, in this lab we are going to be investigating the rotational motion for which a dish…

Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to show the different absorption and emission rates of three different substances. Radiation laws, albedo, and specific heat are all reasons why this is achievable. An agreed upon hypothesis is that the sand will absorb the most heat due to the number of molecules, the moss will absorb the second most because it doesn't have as many molecules as sand, but it has more than water, which isn’t as complex. To complete this experiment, you need three beakers of…

certain point then the reaction rate will decrease. When the temperature increase above 37°C, then denature will occur. Also, the temperature increase, the kinetic energy where H2O2 molecules bind frequently with the catalyst increase the enzymes. Conclusions: An enzyme speeds up the chemical reaction, the activation energy allows energy to require to break bonds apart and lower activation…
