    Dana Crist Mrs. Hawkins H Biology 9- Period 4 28 November 2016 How Does Wind Speed Affect a Candle Flame? Wind has been around since the beginning of time with the ability to move air. Air contains roughly twenty percent oxygen, and this oxygen is what the entire human race lives on to breathe and function. Oxygen, also, is very reactive and is involved in many chemical reactions here on Earth. One of oxygen’s key relationships is its one with fire. Fire has given humans a light source for thousands

    Analysis of Data Field Analysis Wind Speed and Direction The wind speed is consistent for the fore shore and embryo dunes with gust causing ranges of speeds recorded. The average wind speed was 4km/hr. South-westerly winds prevailed at the sites. There is variance between the wind directions recorded at the dune slack with the average showing a southerly wind of 1km/hr, whereas individual readings showed north-westerly of 12km/hr. This may be as the result of inaccurate recording of results in

    In the medium air speed wind tunnels where wind speed ranges from 1.5 – 40m/s, several types of wind tunnels can be applied. At first, an open suction type wind tunnel can have a large test section with high contraction ratio [3]. This type of wind tunnel has a large inlet area to take motionless air to the test section. Air filters can be installed before the inlet to prevent any

    the data acquisition procedure was to make sure that the wind speed and wind direction were in accordance to the target ranges. This will be more tangible if it is pointed out that time histories of pressure coefficient are directly dependent on the velocity measurements and turbulence intensity at reference height in the lab. Therefore, wind speed measurement has to be performed with high resolution devices that can catch little changes in wind characteristics; to do so, in the current study Cobra

    There is two type of force affecting pine tree, these are horizontal and vertical forces. This horizontal force is due to wind factor and the vertical force is due to gravity. The horizontal and vertical forces are substantiated by the total turning moment applied at any height of the stem. A tree is assumed to be fall down or break, if the total turning moment exceeds the

    Conclusion The hypothesis for the wheelbase and speed experiment was rejected. The data that was used from the experiment supports the hypothesis was that the car with the largest wheelbase (Car 4) went the slowest at an average speed of 1.613 m/s while the car with the shortest wheelbase, (Car 1) went an average speed of 1.668 m/s which is faster than Car 4. Car 1 is 0.055 m/s faster than Car 4. Though it is very much likely that since car 4 has a larger wheelbase. Something that may have changed
