    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…

    direction in which a temperature follow. According to chemistryexplained.com, temperature is the measure of how hot or cold something is or the amount of kinetic energy an object has. Furthermore, temperature is the flow of energy from high to low. In this experiment, the water started with a high temperature meaning that it has a lot of kinetic energy.…

    the ball is very hard when it is filled with air, a lot of air pressure is crucial to kicking the ball over a great distance. The higher the air pressure of the ball, the farther it will go when kicked. The kick will transfer more energy into a stiff ball because less energy will be lost to deformation of the ball’s surface. Next, the Magnus Effect. Nothing is more exciting than when a soccer ball is curved into the goal. When a soccer ball is kicked off center, the ball starts to spin. It’s…

    pH and initial nickel concentration as shown in Fig. 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The sorption rate was rapid at the beginning of the period. It was observed that the equilibrium uptake of nickel by immobilized spent yeast was occurred after 2 hours. Kinetic studies of adsorption To investigate the sorption mechanism, the constants of sorption were determined by using pseudo-first and second order equations. The plot of log(qe-qt) and t/ qt against time were used and all data were tested against…

    The hypothesis for the experiment is that if the temperature and pH increases (but not past optimal levels), and the higher concentration of amylase, then it will result in faster rates of enzyme activity. Therefore, if the opposite were to occur, then the reaction will slow down and not function properly. For concentration, my hypothesis was proved to be correct. The undiluted solution had higher frequencies of collision at the active site of the enzyme and substrate. Which means the percent of…

    Electric current is measured in amperes (A). Voltage: The difference in electric potential energy of charged particles between two points within the electric field is called voltage. The free electrons at the higher potential have more electrical potential energy whereas the free electrons at lower potential have less electrical potential energy. Voltage is measured in volts (V). Resistance: Resistance is the opposite force that resists the flow of electrons. The electrons…

    example, placing solutions A and B in the warmed water increases the solution's temperature which causes the particles to collide more frequently due to kinetic molecular theory. By increasing the concentration of the reactants increases the rate of the reaction. (http://chemguide.co.uk/physical/basicrates/concentration.html)…

    Fill the flat beaker with water. 6. Place a plastic bag over the top of the cylinder and place it, upside down, in the flat beaker. Make sure the bottom of the beaker is always underwater. 7. Fasten the beaker in place using the stand, clamp and boss. 8. Place one end of the tube inside the large beaker and fasten the other to the cynical flask’s arm. 9. Quickly pour the CaCO3 into the cynical flask, plug in the rubber stopper and start the stop watch. 10. Every 10 seconds,…

    out with a ramp that we dropped the ball on. That was our potential energy. Next, we had a ball drop down a tub at approximately 180°. That was mechanical energy. After that, the ball went through an elbow and hit another ball causing more mechanical energy and thermal energy from a ball hitting the other ball. This step is where we needed speed. As soon as the ball gets hit, it drops down a tube. Which is more mechanical energy. Next, the ball flies into an…
