Determining acceleration due to gravity by three methods Purpose: To use three different methods to determine the acceleration due to gravity and see which is more accurate. Also to give us practical application and proof of the 9.8m/s/s law. Materials: Eraser‚ Video‚ stop watch‚ 2M stick Procedure: We measured 2M from the floor to a certain spot on the chalk board. Then we measured by hand with a stop watch how long it took for the eraser to hit the floor. In the video they used a ball

My senior project was on a 3rd-6th grade basketball camp. The reason I did my paper on the differences is because it relates to how the different age and ability levels affect the outlook of the sport. As an individual transitions from high school to college and then to a professional level‚ one may come to realize major and subtle differences in each level that is experienced. James Naismith invented the game of basketball as something to keep men occupied. It has changed a lot from then to

I feel this way because you cannot prevent what has already happened you just have to rehabilitate this person. And hope they learn to not deal with the abuse the lady used the panic which prevented the man from hurting the lady and he went to jail.

We hypothesized that the amount of UV radiation exposed has a negative correlation with yeast genetic stability‚ which ultimately determines the number of yeast colonies. In this experiment‚ yeast cells were treated with UV radiation‚ protected by photoprotective agents with different strength (in ascending order: Sunscreen #2‚ #1‚ aluminium foil). After letting it grow for seven days at 37 degrees‚ some grown colonies were counted to determine the effectiveness of photoprotective agents. After comparing

The Biological Effects of Radiation Whether the source of radiation is natural or man made‚ whether it is a small dose of radiation or a large dose‚ there will be some biological effects. Radiation causes ionizations of atoms‚ which will affect molecules‚ which may affect cells‚ which may affect tissues‚ and so on. Although most people tend to think of biological effects in terms of the effect of radiation on living cells‚ in actuality‚ ionizing radiation‚ by definition‚ interacts only with

“Solar Radiation and its Effects on Planet Earth” The Sun emits a tremendous amount of energy‚ in the form of electromagnetic radiation‚ into space. If we could somehow build a gigantic ball around the Sun that completely enclosed it‚ and lined that ball with perfectly efficient photovoltaic solar panels‚ we could capture all of that energy and convert it to electricity and be set in terms of Earth ’s energy needs for a very long time. Lacking such a fanciful sphere‚ most of the Sun ’s energy

2012) Exposure to UV radiation is the leading cause of most skin cancers as it induces DNA damage in skin cells. The effects of UV radiation can be classified based on the amount of exposure as acute or chronic. Acute side effects include sunburns and chronic effects can be mutagenic and also increase aging in humans. (Pacholczyk‚ 2015) The effects of UV radiation are significant and finding

ABSTRACT: By exposing Brassica rapa seedlings to UV-C light‚ the effect of the growth and development of Brassica rapa seedlings was tested. The experimental group of Brassica rapa seedlings was exposed to 254 nm UV-C light for thirty seconds after one week of growth. Throughout the duration of one month‚ the height‚ number of leaves and stem diameter were measured sporadically. After one month‚ the biomass of the seedlings was recorded. A starch analysis test was also performed. According to the
