    Investigating the Relationship Between the Length and Width of a Leaf Aim: To investigate if there is a relationship between the length and width of the leaves. I will also investigate summary measures to represent my data. Data Collection: I choose to collect my leaves from a tree in my back garden, as it was easy to access. I picked the leaves from different places and different heights around the tree so that my sample of leaves would be random. I choose

    1172 Words  | 3 Pages

    Investigating How Length and Width of Copper Wire Affect the Current of a Circuit Task: To investigate how length and width of copper wire affect on the current of a circuit. Prediction: In this experiment, the input variable will be changing the length of the copper wire used in the experiment, and also the SWG of the wire, which means the width of the wire. By changing this variable, the current the circuit will vary. With my knowledge in science and some

  • The Relationship Between Length, Width and Resistance of a Wire

    2113 Words  | 5 Pages

    The Relationship Between Length, Width and Resistance of a Wire Aim: To investigate how the length and width of a wire affects the resistance of the wire. What is resistance? Electricity is conducted through a conductor, in this case wire, by means of free electrons. The number of free electrons depends on the material and more free electrons means a better conductor, i.e. gold has less resistance. For example, gold has more free electrons than iron and, as a result, it is a better

    current. In my investigation I am to look at two of these sets of things, length of wire and width. The ideas are; Length: As the length increases so will the resistance Width: As the width increases so will the resistance Pre-test We did a pre-test in the same way in which the experiment is to be carried out, to find out and tweak different attributes. Some of which were; * Lengths and widths of wire to use to help give us a broad range of results and help us produce a valued conclusion

  • The Change in Resistance of a Carbon Paper

    886 Words  | 2 Pages

    different variables change. Variables A variable is a change in an experiment that could alter the outcome/results of that experiment, and for this experiment the main variables are type of paper, width of paper, length of paper, and temperature. We are going to be studying how changing the width of the paper affects the resistance, and so to ensure a fair test we will have to keep all of the other variables constant, as if they were also changing the results could be affected and the experiment

  • River Process

    4006 Words  | 9 Pages

    A Study of the Changes in River Processes This is a study of the changes in river processes along the long profile of a river. To study this we will use a sample river. The river the study will be based on Loughton Brook, which is a river situated in Epping Forest in Essex and is also a tributary of the river Thames. A journey will be made to the river and measurements will be made at three different sites. The measurements that were taken will be studied so conclusions

    last function is to force the use of a secondary (possibly weaker) hitter, or a secondary hit such as a tip or half hit. The basics of the block begin at the feet. The feet should be parallel, about fourteen inches from the net, and about shoulder width apart. The weight should be on the inside of the feet, with more weight on the foot opposite the direction of the most likely movement. Knees should be slightly bent. Hands should always be kept at shoulder height, elbows flexed, and the forarms should

  • Math Hidden Faces Investigation

    am doing this investigation about cubes is because to find the hidden faces and total faces which would be added near the diagrams. I am going to increase one dimension at a time while holding the other one the same. I will start by holding the width and the height by one while increasing the depth by one. Moving on to deeper investigation I would investigate cubes that have more cubes and rows of cubes which would lead to more accurate results. I would again provide total faces and hidden

  • Gradient Function Investigation

    a positive integer. Y=X2 X Height Width Gradient 1 1 0.5 2 2 4 1 4 3 9 1.5 6 4 16 2 8 Looking at the results above I can see that the gradient is twice the X value, the height is X2 and the width is 1/2 the X value. This shows me that there are several patterns in the graph but there is not enough to make a formula on so I am going to do another graph Y=X3 X Height Width Gradient 1 1 0.33 3 2 8

    the base will be shorter. Looking at this diagram, there is no need to draw out tables to find out whether or not a scalene triangle is bigger than an equilateral or an isosceles in terms of area. I have made it so that the base is the same width for all triangles. The lines that are going from top to bottom on each triangle represent the height. It shows that if the base stays the same for all triangles, a scalene can never have the larger height and larger base than the isosceles and if

  • Craters Investigation

    Investigation In this experiment I am going to investigate one factor that causes craters to be different sizes. I am going to do this by dropping a ball bearing with a mass of 63.7g, from varying heights into a tub of sand and then measuring the width of the crater it made. Research -------- On the Moon, craters usually measure up to 200 (320 miles) or more in diameter. Meteorites hitting the lunar surface at high velocity produced most of the large craters. Many of the smaller ones -

    which is the source of the River Chess; its confluence is the River Colne at Rickmansworth which feeds into the River Thames which then follows into the sea. [IMAGE] * * Gradient- will decrease downstream, starting at a high point. * Width- will get wider due to more water feeding in from the ground, therefore it will increase downstream. * Depth- will get deeper downstream.

    areas of a page. When placing buttons, we do not want to make the size too small or to have a picture obscured behind text. If both text and graphics are used to represent the button, it is visually appealing to keep the text and graphics of equal width. This is exemplified on the main page of the WebCT course page where four pictures are used in conjunction with text labels. Each picture does not exceed the size of the text label, keeping the formatting consistent with the text serving as the foundation

    Comparing and Contrasting Epic of Gilgamesh and Noah's Ark Many cultures have stories of a great flood, and probably the best known story is of Noah's Ark. The next most notable is the Sumerian story of Ut-Napishtim found in the Epic of Gilgamesh. In the ancient Babylonian depiction of the flood story, the god Enlil creates a flood to destroy a noisy mankind that is disturbing his sleep. Gilgamesh is told by another god, Ea, to build an ark (Monack 1). The Epic of Gilgamesh has broadly the same

    circle is this arbitrary formula. As it turns out the area of a circle is not an easy task to figure out by your self. Early mathematicians knew that area was, in general to four sided polygons, length times width. But a circle was different, it could not be simply divided into length and width for it had no sides. As it turns out, finding the measurement to be squared was not difficult as it was the radius of the circle. There was another aspect of the circle though that has led one of the greatest
