    friction is the force that opposes the main force (the main force being the movement of the player). The coefficient of friction between skates and the ice is around .03. Furthermore the ice’s composition assists the player in stopping, speeding up, or turning. When skating, a hockey player doesn’t skate with their legs pointed forward. Instead, his skates are tilted at an angle away from his body. This is because, while moving on ice, the friction force is almost zero and the force being created by

    is when two objects with different types of mass are forcing up together with acceleration. They were taught that if there is two objects moving with the same force and different mass that one will beat the other and the one will win is the car due to the car it has less mass than the van. For example, a force of a semi with the same force as pushing a truck the semi truck will go farther than the truck because it has less mass. Another thing the found out from the pasta car lab is Newton's third

    centimeters traveled. The pyramid shaped roof had an average of 3.59 centimeters traveled. The car with the least distance traveled was the hemisphere which traveled an average of 3.15 centimeters. Each and every trial was tested the same way so the launch force could be kept as a constant. The data collected had a light trend whereas the less linear a shape became, less distance was traveled. The control group was the most linear followed by the cube, pyramid, and hemisphere. The averages went lower as the

    Rotocopter Report The original design of the rotocopter was straightforward. Flap A and Flap B were to be folded in towards each other, along the dashed line. Rotor A and Rotor B were to be folded in opposite directions. The hypothesis of the experiment was as follows: If the rotocopter is put onto construction paper, it will have more air time. To be ensured that only one variable was tested at a time, the rotocopter was dropped from the same height every time. Not only this, but the rotocopter

    Stress is referring to situations that trigger physical and emotional reaction. Stress can affect every aspect of one’s life which includes work, school, relationship, family and even one’s sleep pattern. The type of stress response I experienced this week is acute stress from work combined with stress at home (cooking taking care of the kids and school assignment) which I always all the time, I will say am adapted to this type of stress. Another type of stress response am battling with is the chronic

    In a pool game, the physics are the determining factor to almost every game. The balls must go into each pocket at the long edges of the pool table by letting the cue ball hit it. After it is hit, it heads into a specific direction based off the momentum, mass, and angle of the hit. This experiment will showcase the results of multiple collisions on two objects of equal mass. A certain physics equation, called elastic collision, demonstrates this mathematically. Elastic collision, given by 1/2mvc^2

Then complete the discussion by supplying or choosing the appropriate terms. To maintain life, organisms must be able to convert energy from one form to another. For example, in the process of photosynthesis, algae, plants, and photosynthetic prokaryotes use the energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water to glucose and oxygen (a waste product). The summary

    By looking at ‎Figure 3.7, a better match can be noticed in general shape of the profiles that are matching the theoretical profile corresponding to open-terrain condition (target α = 0.15). For instance, at d=2H, 3D-CFD-RSM is showing a good representation of open-terrain profile for the mean velocity until , and above this point the profile has a tendency to decrease speed which is also the trend of experimental measurements above . This is mainly because in the laboratory and also CFD simulations

    The key to success while playing an on-ice sport is knowing the equiptment. The most important piece of equipment is what allows us to even skate on ice: Ice skates. Made for different things, they all look different and have different components. One thing they have in common is that the blade is made from carbon steel. When skating, it cuts through the ice, creating just micro-millimeters of water and that’s how people skate on ice. Although hockey, figure skating and speed skating are all performed
