Introduction The main objective of this lab is to observe the behavior of a metal block while experiencing uniaxial translation and oscillation in respects to time to calculate the acceleration, spring constant, and damping factor. The experiment was split into two different labs. Part one, the drop test, to take the block to a fixed height and drop it. This would then allow us to calculate the friction force, along with the acceleration of the metal block. Part two, the bounce test, is…

Several accusations were made that manufacturers were incorrectly labeling the iron content on their products. The purpose of this experiment was to analyze the amount of iron in approximately one serving of Total Whole Grain cereal and in one iron tablet and determine if these accusations were true. The values collected would then be compared to the actual values for these products. Total cereal contains 100% of the recommended daily allowance for iron, and the iron tablet contains 361% of the…

Variables Likely impact upon the investigation How the variable will be changed/measured/controlled Independent variable Mass of Baking Soda (grams) Changing the mass of baking soda will impact the volume of gas is produced. The higher the mass, the more gas will be produced, and vice-versa. This will happen as the results of the decomposition of baking soda will be directly proportional to the mass of the baking soda. The independent variable will be altered by changing the amount of baking…

What Size of External Oak Door Do I Need? Oak is an organic, natural and subjectively attractive building material that has been used to build front, rear and interior doors for hundreds of years. There is an unmistakable and unique quality to a solid oak door, which means that, even with their more lofty price tags, they are still the favoured choice of homeowners across the country. Before you spend hours searching for the right door, however, you might want to consider its size, as that last…

It is undoubted that space exploration is an important human activity with numerous benefits for the mankind while some progressively adore that it is a waste of money. This essay will prudently persuade how the development in the space exploration could benefit humanity with logical arguments and facts. Innovations are the way forward for continuous development and as a result of such innovations, we have been able to expand our horizons. Latest developments in space transportation and related…

‘The only thing compulsory is fun,’ I’d like to quote Professor Ping Koy Lam. This statement may sound dubious or lazy when claimed plainly, or perhaps a weak attempt at ‘the moral of a story’. However, to Professor Ping Koy Lam, this was exactly what led him to his accomplishments today. Professor Lam was born in Penang, Malaysia in 1967, and grew up inspired by men of science, His passion for science was deeply imprinted on him during his early youth by his brothers, father and a few…

In addition, the result must be repeatable so that a second evaluation by the team produces the same results. All measurement results should be relevant to the organization. Many of the traditional concepts in the field of metrology, which are used in the physical sciences, such as the use of fundamental units, scales and uncertainty, have either not been applied or applied in a less rigorous way. Quantitative metrics for the IT security system generally reflect the reasoned…

Optical detectors are components that convert incoming optical energy into electrical signals. Many photonics applications, such as monitoring laser power levels and laser metrology, require the usage of these detectors.1-3 Although there are many different types of optical detectors available covering parts of the electromagnetic spectrum: the ultraviolet, visible and infrared, optical detectors are divided into two main categories: photon and thermal detectors. Photon detectors generate one…

Like most of the boys, I was deeply affected by the science fiction movies. Those High- Tech movies always raise my spirits. However, after years study in university, I have knowledge of how Engineering will allow me to see principles are applied and design the system. So, to fulfil my dream, electronic technology and renewable technology are the critical part of my plan. Base on the fundamental of electricity I learned in South China Agricultural University and Cardiff University, I can…
