question: Which pill coating results in highest dissolution rates? This is important because dissolution of medicine such as ibuprofen prior to absorption maximizes effectiveness. Therefore‚ understanding how tablet coatings can affect dissolution time will be beneficial to consumers.

A graph showing the experimental results. Figure 7: shows the relationship between loft angle and linear velocity From the Figure 7‚ there is a negative relationship between the loft angle of golf club and the linear velocity of golf ball. Which means as the loft angle increases‚ the linear velocity of ball decreases. The golf ball travels with relatively fast velocity at 9.2ms-1‚ when the loft angle is 0 degree‚ but it travels relatively slower at 3.7ms-1 when the loft angle is 80 degree. Also
