Speed Kills The high speed limits are often causes of accidents that cause serious injuries and even death. The speed limit should be lowered so we can control accidents caused by high speed driving‚ pollution‚ and the high cost of operation and insurance. First of all it is obvious that a motorist driving over the speed limit has more chances of getting into an accident that a motorist who is traveling at the average speed. One who drives fast does not have proper and that well of a control

Measuring the Speed of Sound and Air using a Pulse-Echo Technique Purpose To determine the speed of sound in air using the pulse-echo experiment procedure‚ and comparing it to the predicted speed of sound in air using the measured air temperature of the classroom. Hypothesis I believe that the speed of sound it the air will be close to that of the predicted value. According to our predicted value‚ we should expect the speed of sound in the air to be at a speed of approximately 346 m/s. Materials

Temperature and Thermometers The Temperature of an object is a measure of the hotness or coldness of that object. An alternative way to think of temperature is to say that “the temperature of an object is a number – on some manmade scale – that indicates the hotness of the object”. ‘Hotness’ in turn is a measure of the kinetic energy of the molecules of the material. Note: You must use the term ‘hotness’.* The SI unit of temperature is the Kelvin (K)* Relationship between degrees Celsius

Speed of Light Determining the speed of light is something that has been a very long and trying process. No one scientist could determine such a thing. Galileo was the first noted scientist to attempt experimentation on the speed of light. Other famous scientist‚ such as‚ Roemer‚ Foucault‚ Fizeau‚ Michelson‚ and Einstein added their own discoveries to the collage of information gathered through the years. Every scientist performed their experiments differently based on the knowledge and ability
