Pipe Friction Summary The purpose of this lab is to find the friction factor and Reynolds number for laminar and turbulent flow and also for values in the critical zone. Results were taken recorded and used to calculate the friction factor and Reynolds number. They were then compared with the Moody diagram. Aim This lab could be used in industry when dealing with a pipe line containing any type of liquid to calculate the Reynolds number and friction factor. It would also help in pipe

Friction on a surface. Aim: To establish the relation between weight of a rectangular wooden block lying on a horizontal table and the minimum force required to just move it using a spring balance Materials required: A rectangular block of wood with a hook ‚ set of weights‚ strong thread and a spring balance. Theory: The force of friction acting on a block of wood is proportional to the normal reaction acting on the block. By the third law of motion‚ normal reaction is equal to the weight

Sample Short Lab Report By Charles M Borener Jr April 24‚ 2009 Kinetic Friction Experiment #13 Joe Solution E00123456 Partner - Jane Answers PHY 221 Lab Instructor – Chuck Borener Thursday‚ 11 AM – 1 PM Lecture Instructor – Dr. Jacobs Abstract In this experiment‚ we test factors which effect friction. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whether the surface area of the block or the type of surface effects friction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change

Techniques and Measurements Lab 1 The purpose of this lab was for the student to get involved with his or hers new lab kit as well as being able to know‚ identify and use each other tools provided in the kit. Another key learning aspect of this lab is to teach the student how to measure properly the many units in the SI system. I will be using laboratory dilutions‚ measurements‚ and weights to then calculate using algebraic formula. Throughout lab one we were introduced to many different

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

Measurement of the fluid flow‚ often must understand its flow‚ flow rate distribution. Reynolds number is the characterization of fluid flow characteristics of an important parameter. Fluid flow when the inertial force F g and viscous forces (the friction) F m ratio known as the Reynolds number. OBJECTIVES The main objectives of conducting this experiment were: 1. To visualize laminar‚ transitional and turbulent flows. 2. To determine the conditions under which types of flow occur.

have chosen to talk to you about friction. Friction is the force between two objects in contact with each other‚ making it a contact force. It causes moving objects to slow down. Air resistance is a type of friction. Friction is an important force in our lives. We rely on friction in many ways. An athlete usually wears shoes which provide him/her with a greater friction between the shoe and the surface. We rely on friction as an important aspect of motion. Friction can be a very useful force because

CHM1032L pre/post lab instructions Preparation is a key to success in this lab. For this reason‚ you are required to thoroughly read through the experiment information presented in the lab manual‚ and complete a pre-lab for each experiment you do. The prelab must be completed prior to the day of the experiment. Each Friday I will ask to see your completed prelab before I allow you to enter the lab. If you have not finished the pre-lab‚ I will not allow you to enter the lab and you will receive

Lab report is one way we used during of after an experiment in a laboratory to subtly record and discuss the experiment. During a lab‚ we sometimes can observe only the physical part of the experiment‚ or may be some visible chemical changes. These changes indicate that the experiment we do is successful or not. However‚ in order to understand and achieve more from just simply doing the experiment‚ we write lab report to more profoundly understand the internal meanings of the experiment we do‚ and
