Coefficient of Friction- Post Lab Abstract The purpose of the experiment was to determine to coefficient of friction on a block sliding across a horizontal plane‚ and on the same block sliding down an inclined plane. This was done by first testing block‚ and how much weight on a string was needed to move the block at a constant velocity using a pulley system. The block weighed 0.2385 kilograms‚ and needed a hanging mass of 0.05 kg to move at a constant velocity. This means the coefficient of

Static Electricity Physics Lab #1 June 24‚ 2011 Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to explain the different aspects of static electricity‚ including effects of electrical charges on small-uncharged objects‚ electrical attraction and repulsion‚ creation of electrical charge‚ practical uses of electrical charges‚ and measurement of electrical force between electrical charges. Findings Electric current is the flow of electric charge. Some materials become electrically charged when rubbed

Friction Cynthia Clark Student No. xxxxx May 19‚ 2009 Abstract This experiment measures the coefficient of static friction (μs) and kinetic friction (μk) between objects of different materials. Friction is a force that must be overcome before an object can move across a surface. A plain block of wood and a block of wood with sandpaper on one side and glass on the other were used. All of the blocks had a soup can with a mass of 0.41

Hypothesis: For an increase in a normal force‚ there will be a corresponding increase in friction. Introduction: Force is usually connected with a push or pull exerted on an object. In this experiment‚ I am using a contact force‚ a force that exists from physical contact between two things. I am pulling the spring scale‚ which measure force in Newtons (kg x m/s2)‚ and then the block is moving. Different masses (kg)‚ or the measure of the resistance of an object to changes in its motion due

These false images can either be externally imposed or internally fabricated. In either case‚ one must have the courage to look through this ignorance so that ones true self can be exposed. After reading Mirrors it was obvious that‚ Lucy Grealy cared what others thought about her physical appearance. In time‚ however

Static Electricity Everything is made up of tiny particles called atoms. The atoms are made up of even smaller parts called protons‚ electrons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge (+)‚ electrons have a negative charge (-) and neutrons have no charge at all‚ they are neutral. Atoms normally have the same amount of electrons and protons‚ making them neutral and having no charge. When rubbing things together‚ electrons can move from one atom to another‚ resulting in some atoms having extra

experiment is to study the friction loss along a pipe. In this experiment‚ water and mercury have been used to demonstrate the law of resistance with different types of flow which are laminar and turbulent flow. The variation of head loss will be obtained and hence determined the Reynold numbers and friction factor. In the end of the experiment‚ the law of resistance which is the relationship between i and u will be determined and hence established the critical R and friction factor. 1.0 Introduction
