“The Domino Effect” Teacher’s Prompt Investigate the domino effect with a set of dominoes. Aim To investigate the relationship between the mass of the dominoes‚ and how it impacts the time taken of the domino effect. Independent Variable: The mass of each domino (12.38 g‚ 32.38 g‚ 42.38 g‚ 62.38 g‚ 82.38 g). Dependent Variable: Time taken of the domino effect. Controlled Variable: The number of dominoes used (8 dominoes)‚ the distance between the dominoes (2 cm)‚ the loads used as the initial

Science in the Big City: Exploring Career Opportunities in the Natural and Physical Sciences New York City May 13-18‚ 2014 Students in the Natural Sciences at the University of Houston-Downtown are generally accomplished and motivated students with strong interests in science. However‚ students typically have a very limited perception of the science careers available to them outside of medicine. To educate students as to the array of potential careers available in the sciences (not medicine)

Measurement of the distance‚ the thickness and the radius of curvature Purpose : To learn how to use vernier caliper‚ micrometer and spherometer to measure internal and external diameters of a pipe‚the thickness of a copper rods‚ and the radius of curvature of spherical lenses. 1) Vernier caliper: As shown in Fig. 1 the main fixed scale in the vernier caliper has 1 mm gradations while th sliding scale (vernier scale) has 0.05 mm gradations. The smallest division of vernier scale is called
