    Is gravity always 9.8m/s2?? INTRODUCTION: A simple pendulum consists of a mass m swinging back and forth along a circular arc at the end of a string of negligible mass. A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. Gravity is the pull that two bodies of mass exert on one another. There are several simple experiments that will allow you to calculate the acceleration due to gravity of a falling object. A simple pendulum can determine this acceleration. The only variables

    Experiment No. 3: Specific Gravity ABSTRACT : Determination of specific gravity is very essential in our study because it is commonly used in industry as a simple means of obtaining information about the concentration of solutions of various materials such as brines‚ sugar solutions and acids. There are many apparatuses that can be used to determine specific gravity depending on the material to be measured. The objectives of this experiment is to make acquainted the different instruments used

    Introduction The Disbursement Acceleration Program of the Aquino Administration should not be implemented because it does not contribute in the GDP and economic growth of the country‚ although it may have been partially successful‚ its rediscovery has drawn reaction as “Unlawful”‚ aside from being unconstitutional‚ it does not serve‚ neither its spending was translated to over-all increase of jobs‚ nor trigger a downturn in poverty incidence.

    Does “Defying Gravity” really defy gravity? Of course it doesn’t; rather‚ this song truly and most effectively defies musical theatre! Wicked‚ a musical that has swept nations off their feet‚ can easily be defined as a ground-breaking Broadway production to say the least. The musical tastefully explores Elphaba’s and Glinda’s rich friendship‚ but also reveals the origins behind ‘the Wicked Witch of the West’. Stephen Schwartz‚ an acclaimed composer and lyricist who has written renowned musicals such
