    EFFECT OF SURFACE AREA ON AIR FRICTION Design Background Information: Air resistance‚ also called drag‚ is the forces that are in opposition to the relative motion of an object through the air. Drag forces act opposite to the oncoming flow velocity. Size and shape are the two factors that affect air resistance. Air resistance depends on the surface area‚ so‚ as the surface area increases‚ the air resistance increases. When an object is falling‚ air resistance acts to push it back up. This is

    Friction Cynthia Clark Student No. xxxxx May 19‚ 2009 Abstract This experiment measures the coefficient of static friction (μs) and kinetic friction (μk) between objects of different materials. Friction is a force that must be overcome before an object can move across a surface. A plain block of wood and a block of wood with sandpaper on one side and glass on the other were used. All of the blocks had a soup can with a mass of 0.41

    2 devices that use static electricity to funtion 1. Van de Graaff generator When the motor is turned on‚ the lower roller (charger) begins turning the belt. The belt is made of rubber and the lower roller is covered in silicon tape‚ the lower roller begins to build a negative charge and the belt builds a positive charge. Silicon is more negative than rubber so the lower roller is receiving electrons from the belt when it goes over the roller. The positively charged atomic nuclei‚ try to

    Part One: The friction model is the idea that there are various sources that work together to keep policies in place so that the status quo prevails for extended periods of time. There are many different players within the friction model that try to help protect the status quo‚ but other ideas that try to go against the model and change it. The friction model has a head start as it is much easier to protect the status quo than to change it. A major problem policy changer’s face is lack of attention

    ____________________________ Objectives: (1) To determine the amount of NaHCO3 in Alka Seltzer tablets by observing the amount of CO2 produced from the acid-base reaction of HCO3- with acetic acid (in vinegar). (2) To study the concept of limiting reactant. Background: Alka Seltzer is an effervescent tablet that contains aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid)‚ citric acid‚ and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). As soon as the tablet dissolves in water‚ the NaHCO3 dissociates to form a bicarbonate ion

    Life Without Friction By: Anthony Cacciato Life without friction would be dangerous. There would be things flying all around and no one would be safe from an airborne bicycle. You would not even be able to stand on your feet. You would not be able to eat or drink. Life with no friction would be deadly. Nothing would be able to sustain life without friction. We would all die if out of the blue friction went away. There are four kinds of friction and they all help us go throughout our daily lives;
