Report: Blood Drop
Exhibits: Exhibit 1: Blood drops dropped from heights of 10 cm, 25 cm, and 50cm Exhibit 2: Blood drops dropped at angles of 90°, 60°, 30°, and 15°
Exhibit 3: Blood dropped on a cardboard surface, floor tile surface, and a piece of brick surface

Findings:
Extensive examination and comparative analysis as blood drops were dropped from different heights, angles of impacts and different impact surfaces revealed the following:
 As the height that a blood drop falls from increases, the diameter of a blood drop increases.
When the blood drop was dropped from a height of 10 cm in all three trials the diameter of the blood drop was 8mm. Therefore having an average diameter of 8 mm when falling from a height of 10 cm.
When the blood drop was dropped from a height of 25 cm in both the first and second trials the blood drop had a diameter of 12 mm. In the third trial the blood drop had a diameter of 11 mm. Therefore having an average diameteer of 11.67 mm when falling from a height of 25 cm.
 When the blood drop was dropped from a height of 50 cm in the first trial the diameter of the blood drop was 13 mm. In the second trial the blood drop had a diameter of 14 mm. In the third trial the blood drop had a diameter of 13 mm. Therefore having an average diameteer of 13 mm when falling from a height of 50 cm.
Decreasing the angle of impact, increased the length of the blood drops and decreased the width of the blood drops.
When the angle of impact was 90° the width of the blood drop was 12mm and the length of the blood drop was 12 mm.
When the angle of impact was 60° the width of the blood drop was 14 mm and the length of the blood drop was 16 mm.
When the angle of impact was 30° the width of the blood drop was 9 mm and the length of the blood drop was 13 mm.
When the angle of impact was 15° the width of the blood drop was 7 mm and the length of the blood drop was 20 mm.
The surface that the blood is dropped on will effect

    This experiment was to use kinetics of projectile motion and free falling bodies to determine the distance a ball will travel after it hits a bounce plate. To determine this we had to use the equations x=(1/2)at2 and v=v0+at and derive an equation that will determine the distance the ball will travel based on the height of the bounce plate and the height of where the ball will be dropped above the bounce plate. The equation made was g*(sqrt(2)/sqrt(g))*(sqrt(H)*sqrt(h)). From here we can make an estimate of how far the ball will travel after it hits the bounce plate.…

    This was however not the case for wallpaper where the blood could be seen moving up and down the bloodstain before finally forming the bloodstain. This may have been due to the amount of friction the blood encountered when moving along the surface – there would not have been much friction force in the case of the cardboard, however on the wallpaper, because it is a textured surface, there would have been a greater friction force. Given this finding, it would have been expected that the time taken for a bloodstain to form on the wood surface would have taken approximately the same time as the time taken for a bloodstain to form on wallpaper. This was however not the case, with the bloodstain forming in only 39.6 ms on wood. It was seen in the high-speed video of a bloodstain forming on wood that the blood travelled continuously in a downward direction meaning no extra time was spent with blood moving up and down the bloodstain. The bloodstains that took the shortest amount of time to form had the longest wave…

    Crack! That was the sound of our nation 's pastime in the early days of baseball. For nearly 125, years the wooden bat was used in every level of baseball. In Tom 's River, New Jersey, the little league World Series is held every summer. Ping! This is the only sound that a spectator will hear during one of those baseball games. What happened to the old-fashioned crack of the bat? The wooden bat has been used in professional baseball since the game 's establishment in 1864. An aluminum bat is more dangerous than a wooden bat due to the advanced technology of the aluminum bat, but offers a greater impact to a ball than a wooden bat could. For college ball players hoping to make it to the majors, they should be using the equipment required by the MLB in order to be the most prepared. Also, it makes it harder for scouts to determine how a player will perform under different conditions. This is why I believe the NCAA should play with the same standards as the MLB.…

    Blood Spatter

    Blood differs from water in that it is a less viscous liquid. The teardrop that is formed by rain is not formed by blood falling at an equal pace. As a result blood tends to hold the shape of a sphere throughout its flight path. Sobriety of the victim will have no significant effect on how bloodstain patterns are produced(wwwbrazoriacounty.com). By blood holding a generally geometric form the angle of impact (AOI), and eventually the point of origin (POO) can de determined. To determine the angle of impact, assuming the drop is contacting a flat surface, simply measure the width of the stain on the ground. This width will equal the diameter of the droplet in the air. The width will be equal to the short side of a right triangle. This triangle can be placed over the spatter and the angle at which the droplet traveled will be inline with the angle of the triangle(James & Eckhart, 1999). This can be recreated on a scientific calculator with the TAN option.…
