    being that typical college student. The entire setting changes constantly but my goals tend to stay the same. The incessant buzzing makes me roll over and slap the alarm clock: 12:00, time to go to class. I drag myself out from under my bright orange 300 count sheets. I slip on my slippers and drag myself into the bathroom, only to see a big curly knot at the top of my head, with scattered tendrils sticking out, like they have a mind of their own. I jump into the shower and tame this crazy hair of

  • Aerodynamics of Planes

    1627 Words  | 4 Pages

    brand new aircraft known as the F-22, which has the ability to fly an entire mission at supersonic speeds. The speed of light is unattainable by aircraft due to drag. We have no materials that could with stand the heat caused by the friction of the air moving over its body, nor materials strong enough to be able to take the enormous drag. Today there is no thrust capability that would allow for the speed of light. Although aircraft has proved such things as time dilation it is still impossible

  • Investigation of Falling Cake Cases

    2155 Words  | 5 Pages

    Velocity: I will vary two factors in this experiment to determine their affect on terminal velocity; these will be the drop height and weight. I will record the time taken for a cake case, or a stack of cake cases, to fall from a certain height and record the results. To make sure that I am only recording the time when the object has achieved terminal velocity I will drop the object from 20cm above the height and start timing when it comes past that point. Diagram: Factors that affect

  • How The Forces In Fluids Allow Heavy Airplanes

    508 Words  | 2 Pages

    • Bernoulli's principle • wing shape • lift • thrust • drag Every object on Earth has weight, a product of both gravity and mass. A Boeing 747-8 passenger airliner has a maximum takeoff weight of 487.5 tons (442 metric tons), the force of the weighty plane is drawn toward the Earth. Weight's opposing force is lift, which holds an airplane in the air. This feat is accomplished through the use of a wing, also known as an airfoil. Like drag, lift can exist only in the presence of a moving fluid.

    almost is the exact opposite of a fastball. While a fastball spins and makes the pitch fly strait a curveball spins the opposite way. The downward spin makes the air around the pitch heavy on the top and lighter on the bottom; this causes the ball to drop, or break. According to Mlb.coms game day application a typical major league pitched curveball is averaged at less than 80 mph. While the average fastball pitch is greater than 87 mph. The next data is from the curveballs of Bronson arroyo from the

    from the wall. They speak but you do not recognise the language. They push you towards the door and gesture to move, you do, out into a courtyard with buildings all around. You're weak and fall to the floor. One of the guards picks you up and drags you to the building in front of you. It's a washroom; the guards unchain you and give you a bar of soap. You go to one of the showers and take off your clothes. And throw them on the floor. There is a button on the wall in front of you, you press

  • The Math in the Game of Volleyball

    2269 Words  | 5 Pages

    Math in Volleyball Name Institution Math in Volleyball A good service in volleyball is important to a winning strategy. Either an effective serve will not be returned, leading to a point, or it will be returned with minimal strength, providing the serving team with the advantage. One aim of a good serve is to provide the receivers with little time as possible to react. Forces and angles are the two main factors at play when relating volleyball with math (Papageōrgiou & Spitzley, 2003). In short

  • The Prologue Of Huckleberry Finn

    you tried to kill the little merchant boy. I guess you’ll like swimming in these waters!” “You-you-let m-me go!” the older merchant croaks. The young sailor drags him to the edge of the dock. The sounds of crashing waves with the potent smell of salt triggers the merchant to flail. He gets put on the edge. He looks down. “It’ll be a long drop for ya, you brute!” the sailor says as the merchant slowly slips off the edge of the dock. His hands, gripping for life. “Have fun swimming with the fish

  • Gender Trouble in Paris

    constructed through many displays. Gender is not explicitly connected to identity because it is not internal but rather on the body. Butler says that drag “reveals the distinctness of those aspects of gendered experience which are falsely naturalized as a unity through the regulatory fiction of heterosexual coherence. In imitating gender, drag implicitly reveals the imitative structure of gender itself – a...

  • Terminal Velocity Lab Report

    744 Words  | 2 Pages

    Air resistance and drag can either be proportional to the velocity or to the square of the velocity. Drag force will eventually counteract downward forces on an object in freefall, resulting in a terminal velocity. The acceleration of the object can be modeled by an exponential decay graph. PURPOSE Evaluate how terminal velocity varies with mass. Determine in which instances air resistance is proportional to velocity or to velocity squared. Understand how mass influences the decay constant k.

  • Buffer System In Buffer

    1648 Words  | 4 Pages

    A buffer is a weak substance that minimizes changes in the pH of a solution with the addition of mall quantities of acid or base. Buffers typically consists of a weak acid and its conjugate base. Buffers play a critical role in biological processes. Because a buffer is a weak acid, it is only partially ionized and in a state of equilibrium. When an acid is added to a buffer, the buffer will minimize the decrease in pH by neutralizing the acid; the conjugate base will react with the proton released

PivotTables can be used in numerous ways to move; pivot, and fields of data from one place to another using drag and drop. There are several of ways you can look at the same data in a number of different ways. For example, from a list of cops in a police station, you can get a quick estimation of how many calls they received. It is useful when you want to analyze

  • How Does The Air Affect The Speed Of A Car

    588 Words  | 2 Pages

    aerodynamics is how the air moves around an object like a kite, an airplane, car, a boat, etc. Drag is part of how fast something is when you are running, walking, driving a car, or even a plane. When something is moving it is being held back by gravity so when you are in a car you are being poled back aerodynamics is part of you being held back. When you are driving air is hitting the car causing the car to drag which makes the car slow down. When the air hits the car it then it goes off the side of the
