    when a object falls it keeps a constant velocity. Galileo was also a physicist but born years later in 1564 and his theory is that when an object falls it changes velocity. At the end of this lab we will figure out who's theory is correct. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that when a object is dropped it keeps a constant velocity the entire time it is falling on it it's a surface. Because when a object is dropped there is no force to make it accelerate in velocity. Conclusion The variables…

    the fluid decreases which causes its velocity to increase as it passes through a constricted section of a pipe. This is the basis of this report’s investigation. The aim of this investigation is to compare the flow rate obtained from the Venturi meter to the flow rate obtained from a velocity profile measured with a Pitot probe. This aim is achieved by measuring the volumetric flow of air in a pipe using a Venturi and calculating the flow rate from a velocity traverse of a pipe using a Pitot…

    between the bubble boundary and the total-head boundary and also down the length of the bubble. Axial distributions of total head, static pressure and velocity are shown in Figs. l l a to 1 lc for all the rectangular plates. Between A = 1 and A = 10 t h e bubble length decreases from 2-96~/S to 2"26V'S but the distributions of pressure and velocity within the bubble do not change much. The static-pressure coefficient in the centre of the downstream face of the…

    effect of certain toxins on ciliary movement using paramecium as an organism model. As Figure 1 shows, all the toxins have a different effect on paramecium velocity and therefore on ciliary activity. According to Fig. 1 paramecium speed is inversely proportional to time. After the addition of Ni2+ (toxin A) at approximately 0.1Mm (0.099), the velocity of paramecium decreased gradually until it fully stopped after 1800 seconds (Fig. 1). It suggests that Ni2+ has a gradual effect on the…

    To investigate the changes of velocity and to investigate the acceleration and of the car. Also to investigate to see if the velocity and the angle of the wooden plank would make the severity of the crash increase. Hypothesis: The higher the slope of the wooden plank, the faster the car will go therefore the increase of the severity of the crash. Variables: Independent Variable – The height of the ramp Dependent Variable – Distance that the dummy flies – the velocity of the car Constant…

    book, just sheets of paper and as you use your thumb to move those sheets, still images take on a life, they start to move, but you can move them forward and backwards, you can flip it around” and then compares it to the sense of movement in Serene Velocity, saying “It deals with space, and what happens on the plane, with the fact that you are working with this deep space and the same time with frames, no movement. It’s all in the way we see. It’s real. The experience of space is real.” In a…

    to results of the calculation of wind velocity and wind pressure, that shows the typical distributions.Thus explains why, while wind velocity increases less than linearly with height, pressure instead increases as a nearly linear function of height. Wind pressure is thus positive on the windward side, while it is negative on the leeward side, because of the suction effect produced by the airflow separation.The map of strong winds in Europe gives wind velocities at the standard height of 10 m…

    not change unless there’s an external force that acts to change this motion. Therefore, velocity is either zero, or remains constant. Newton’s second law: This describes the change in velocity of an object when acted upon by an external force. Thus, the force exerted on an object is equal to the constant mass of the object multiplied by the change in its velocity over time (acceleration). Mass times velocity is also known as momentum. When it is mentioned that momentum changes over time, it is…

    As with the object lift, drag force varies with the square of the relative velocity. For given-shaped object, generated drag force is affected by the inclination of the object to the flow. Shock wave will be formed around the object when the object moves through the air at the velocity near the speed of sound. It will create an additional drag component which is called wave drag. The motion of the object through the air will cause…

    SCORPIUS Scorpius, also known as Scorpio. Its name is Latin for Scorpion. It lies between Libra to the west and Sagittarius to the east. Scorpius is a large constellation in the southern hemisphere near the centre of the Milky Way. In Greek mythology, Scorpion was sent by Artemis, the goddess of hunting and her mother, Leto, to protect all the creatures since Orion said that he would kill all the creatures on the earth. After a battle, Scorpion killed Orion. Later, Zeus sent Scorpion into…
