ABSTRACT. In this experiment‚ we test factors which affect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whetherthe surface area ofthe block orthe type ofsurface affectsfriction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change the coefficient of kinetic friction‚ while the types of materialsin contact were directly related to the coefficient of kinetic friction. INTRODUCTION Friction is a part of our everyday life. Nearly every movement we make involves friction

FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION WHAT IT IS Frequency distributions summarize and compress data by grouping it into classes and recording how many data points fall into each class. That is‚ they show how many observations on a given variable have a particular attribute. For example‚ a survey is taken of 50 people’s favorite color. The frequency distribution might indicate 15 people selected green‚ 12 blue‚ 6 red‚ 7 yellow‚ and 10 purple. Converting these raw numbers into percentages would then provide an

S1523 Project Title The Focalization of Sound Abstract Objectives/Goals Scientists have been able to focus sound waves by transmitting an ultrasonic wave in a straight line that can give off audible sound in its path. The only disadvantage to this is the high cost. This project was designed to develop a low-cost process of focusing sound using a parabolic dish and sound-absorbent material. Methods/Materials The project began with the building of a sound box to test different materials in. The box

INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is very important in our daily life from measurements of blood-flow rates in human artery to the measurement of liquid oxygen in a rocket. In this experiment‚ students are to adapt to various ways to measure the flow of essentially incompressible fluids by using the flow measuring apparatus. Students will also be able to understand the application of Bernoulli’s equation in this experiment. The flow is measured by using a venture meter‚ an orifice meter

Frequency Distribution (A) Introduction 1. Ungrouped data versus grouped data Ungrouped data (Raw data): It is a list of individual observed values of the random variable Grouped data (a frequency distribution): It is a table that displays the data in grouping along with the number of occurrences that fall into each group. 2. The components of a frequency distribution a. Class limits: They identify the inclusive values in a class of a frequency distribution The

Lab Report An enzyme is a protein that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change so they can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. A Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change. Catalysts are substances or a substance that configures another substance
