Physical Education in Schools
Almost 20% of children are obese; this is possibly caused by the fact that in most schools physical education is no longer required. Because of children not having their physical exercise required of them they don't do it and end up gaining weight, and become obese. It has become a big issue. The reasons to make physical education required in schools are obvious; children will get in a healthy routine for a good and healthy

Soil Lab Report
Purpose: By testing the soil's components; macronutrients and pH, we will be able to determine the yield of the species of plants we plan on putting in our garden such as the birds eye gilia, blue eyed grass, and tidy-tips. Hypothesis: If we test our soil for macronutrient levels using the LaMotte Soil Test Kit AM-31, then we will be able to see if our plants will be suited for our crop of garden land

Mech E Lab Report
Abstract: The objective of this lab was to characterize the performance of an amplifier using an oscilloscope and to find the gain of an op-amp. Oscilloscope is widely used in the field of mechanical engineering to display the time dependence of voltage signal coming out the sensors. The sensors are used for detecting changes in temperature, pH, vibrations and strains. Since the sensors have very low output voltage which needs to be amplified using an

Lab Report Vortextube
Theory: A vortex is a spinning turbulent flow of fluid or gas. The motion of this gas swirling rapidly around a center forms a vortex. One of the best modern day applications of a vortex can be found inside of a vortex tube. The vortex tube is a mechanical device that was discovered in 1928 by George Ranque. The tube is a device that converts a flow of compressed gas into two separate streams. The

Osmoregulation Lab - Observing Osmoregulation
Observing Osmoregulation Introduction: The main function of the kidney is to regulate the osmolality of the body’s fluids. In this lab, students observe osmoregulation by testing urine samples. The students divide into three groups. Each group drinks 800 ml water, 800 ml Gatorade, or 7 grams of NaCl with 80 ml of water. The students then record the average volume of urine produced, the specific gravity of the urine, and the NaCl level of the

Testing the Physical Properties of the Cross-Linkage Between Polyvinyl Alcohol and Sodium Borate
Introduction: Polyvinyl alcohol is a polymer that is odorless, nontoxic, soluble, and biodegradable. When cross-linked with sodium borate, PVA can be used as a packing material. Cross-linking occurs when polymers are bonded to each other by covalent or ionic bonds. Sodium borate was the cross-linking agent that bonded the PVA polymers together. Other examples of cross-linking are epoxy resins, polycarbonates, and the vulcanization of rubber as shown in the figure below. The objective of this

Fluid Flow Lab Report
Abstract The mass flow rate of a system was measured across an orifice plate. The discharge coefficient and Reynolds number was found for the same system and plotted (figure 1). Figure 2 is the log-log plot of mass flow rate vs pressure drop across the orifice. The constant “k” from equation 10 is found to be 0.2488. A rotameter is used in a separate experimental setup to determine a linear relationship between the rotameter reading

Lab Report 9 Microbiology Osmosis
Introduction To sustain life cells must take in nutrients and excrete wastes via their membranes. Transportation into the cell can be done passively or actively. Active transport requires the cell to use energy, so the easier passive transport is utilized most often. One example of passive transport is diffusion. During diffusion "molecules spread from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration" through the membrane (Lab Manual, pg 172). Osmosis, a type of diffusion,
