    Scholarship Extension

    • 811 Words
    • 4 Pages

    I request an extension of my scholarship, my registration number is 387016, I´m doing my PhD at the University of Windsor in Ontario Canada. The reason for a scholarship extension is due to forces outside of me, related to the availability of instruments required for the development of my thesis as well as emerging issues during the research process of the thesis and that are necessary to be address. The extension of the thesis would allow me to conclude with a complete and well-done thesis. Most

    Stirring as an agitation method is therefore quite useful in kinetic studies as process of aggregation without agitation can sometime take several days to months for completion. Table 1.2 describe this effect of agitation on aggregation process of various proteins, clearly showing the drastic change in kinetic parameters like lag time in absence and presence of agitation condition like stirring. Such agitation could possibly induce cavitation

    Momentum After Collision

    The total momentum and total kinetic energy before and after do not match up because the final momentum and kinetic energy is smaller in the straight on collision and larger in the nearly straight on and glancing blow. For kinetic energy to be lost like in the straight on collision means that the kinetic energy was transformed into another type of energy like sound because in real life when the balls collide, a sound can be heard during the collision. However for kinetic energy to be gained does not

    solutions are mixed together, which after a given time will form a dark blue solution. The factors used in this investigation are the concentration of two substances and the temperature at which the reaction occurred. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Kinetics is essentially the study of reaction rates and how they can be affected. Factors such as concentration, pressure, temperature, and enzyme activity, are commonly tested regarding their impact on the rate of a reaction (Khan Academy, 2017). It is important

    According to The Kinetic Molecular Theory The reaction rate is defined as, the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds. It is often expressed in terms of either the concentration (amount per unit volume) of a product that is formed in a unit of time or the concentration of a reactant that is consumed in a unit of time (according to Britannica Online Encyclopedia). But not only concentration affects the reaction rate, temperature also affects the rate. The Kinetic Molecular Theory is described

    Kinetics is essentially the study of reaction rates and how they can be affected. Factors such as concentration, pressure, temperature, and enzyme activity, are commonly tested regarding their impact on the rate of a reaction (Khan Academy, 2017). It is important to recognise and understand the components that affect the rate of chemical reactions as this allows control over the reaction process. Chemical reactions progress naturally at different rates. A chemical reaction involves the rearrangement

    Conservation of energy – Sam Perelman Purpose: To investigate the gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, and mechanical energy of the cart as it goes down the ramp. Hypothesis If energy is conserved then the cart will have the highest gravitational potential energy at the top of the ramp and the highest kinetic energy at the bottom of the ramp but have a consistent total energy throughout its journey. This is because the equation for Eg is Eg =mgh so when h=0 E=0 (this occurs at the bottom

    was not consistent with the theory since the value greatly deviates from zero. The cause of this may have been certain errors while performing the lab. Gravitational Potential Energy Introduction and Theory: The energy that an object has due to its position in a gravitational field due to its position is known as the gravitational potential energy (ΔU). It is known that energy is conserved, so when the cart is released, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (ΔK). Due to friction

    was to calculate the kinetic energy and potential energy of an object through experimenting with a car and measuring its velocity when passing through photogates while carrying a certain amount of weights. In order to find kinetic and potential energy, we applied the concepts of velocity and speed that we learned previously. This lab showed us the application of the concepts we learned in class and how potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, and vice versa. Theory: write more! The principle
