ski wax can be applied by rubbing‚ pasting‚ spraying‚ or melting then the melt on wax should reduce friction the best because it coats the skis more evenly and creates a thicker protective barrier to the bases of the skis. Consequently‚ this hypothesis was correct because the data captured displayed that the hot wax reduces friction the best‚ see appendix seven‚ eight‚ and nine. Hot melt on wax had the fastest time when the ice disc was slid down the ski and had the highest velocity. It traveled smoother

Melt Flow Analysis Abstract: Polyethylene’s melt flow properties at 190°Cwere identified through the use of an extrusion plastometer. The data obtained was used to determine the average melt flow rate and melt flow index. Introduction: Polymers are an important class of materials. The range of properties of polymeric materials allows it to be essential in everyday life. The simplest polymer is polyethylene which consists of long chains of C2H4 monomers. Each monomer is joined by a covalent

The fastest way to cool a soda deals a lot with heat transfer. Heat is a measure of the average molecular motion of matter and can be transferred from one piece of matter to another in four different ways which are conduction‚ convection‚ evaporation‚ and radiation. (Tania Dakka) In the experiment the different levels of the independent variable include a cooler with ice‚ another with ice and water‚ one with water ice and salt‚ the refrigerator‚ and the freezer. Prior research has been done on this

In my science project I will be doing “What is the fastest ways to cool soda?”. I believe‚ that the salted ice water bath will be the most effective one and cool the sodas the fastest. The salted ice bath with water can lower the temperature of the soda to 44 degrees in 5 minutes. There are several ways that I could cool soda. Some of the most popular methods to cool are in a salted ice bath with water‚ ice bath no water‚ and the freezer. I will be testing these ways with different types of soda
