Name: Avishak Deb Roy Partners: Leevell Penn, Varugh, Butler Bio 101 Lab Report #1 02.22.2018 Swimming speed of paramecium tetraurelia in different levels of treatment. Introduction Paramecia is a unicellular Protista which are naturally found in aquatic habitats. It is easily cultured in the laboratory. It is oblong shaped and covered with short hairy structure called cilia. Paramecia does not pose any health or ethical concerns and the population can be maintained if there is a food source such as Enterobacter (Biological Foundation 7).
2016 PGA Championship - Baltusrol Golf Club (Lower Course) Baltusrol Golf Club, located in Springfield, NJ, is recognized as one of the finest golf facilities in the U.S. The Old Course was originally founded in 1895. However, legendary golf course architect A.W. Tilinghast revolutionized golf course architecture with Baltusrol's "Dual Course" design. Tillinghast's Dual Courses project was the first design with two courses side by side at the same time.
Eudiometer Experiments in Elemental Effervescent Expansions Joe Williamson and Ethan Kang Mar 13, 2023 Purpose: The purpose of the gas laws lab was to calculate the volume of gas produced from a specific mass of magnesium ribbon. It also aims to use gas laws to determine the theoretical yield and volume of hydrogen gas produced at STP. Procedure: Gather Mg ribbon, string, a 2000-mL beaker, a Eudiometer, a 100-mL beaker, 50-60 mL distilled water, and HCl.
The experiment overall was nicely conducted, and results were found through the information gathered. The dependent variable was established very quickly; furthermore, we can find the dependent variable was whether the athletes played a contact sport or a sport like baseball, where most concussions come from being hit by the ball. The independent variable is the number of concussions the test subjects obtained. Ultimately they could not control how many concussions each individual obtained but they controlled which individuals were chosen and what test were ran. The results that ran throughout the whole experiment was an overall success, the results show that multiple compared to single occurring concussions do not have an effect on P3 suppression.
The main three types of energy that are involved are kinetic, elastic, and gravitational. Kinetic energy is naturally different for racquetballs and tennis balls because tennis balls weigh more. When measuring kinetic energy the mass of the object is used so tennis balls have a natural advantage to have a bigger kinetic energy. Even if the racquetball was traveling a little faster there is a chance that the tennis ball would still have a bigger kinetic energy. With elastic energy, both of these balls have it and so does almost every other ball in sports.
When you use the Monster Golf Swing, you can discover how easily you can add distance to your drives. Terrence has made a formula that he was able to learn with several golfers at his own performance clinic. He found out that most golfers waste about 90% of their natural power without the right knowledge of doing a perfect swing. Monster Golf Swing is like “insider” information that is secreted from most amateur golfers. Monster Golf Swing will teach you how to drive a golf ball with great velocity same with a howitzer cannon.
Here we have Professional golfer and Master’s champion Jordan Spieth. As we take a closer look at the forces behind his golf swing there are many components and examples of physics in the entire sequence. To begin with the ball is at rest on the golf tee. The force of earth’s gravity is pulling down on the ball. However this force acting upon the ball is balanced by the normal force pushing upward from the tee.
Instead of being put into energy to power the ball, it is lost to the ball and bat deforming, causing heat. The coefficient of restitution is used to measure how much energy is lost in the collision. The ball can compress up to nearly half of the original diameter during the impact. With the deformation, potential energy is stored (Agency 2006). When its released, the energy is converted to kinetic energy and the ball has been hit.
The purpose of this experiment was to discover how the flexibility of a hockey stick impacts the distance and velocity at which the puck will travel. If the puck traveled the farthest distance and maintained the greatest velocity then, the puck was launched by the stick with the most flexibility because it was able to generate more force to launch the puck. However, when testing out just the flexibility of the stick alone, it was puzzling to find that the Bauer Vapor x60 Composite Stick was capable of firing the puck a greater distance and at a greater velocity than the Easton 53 Composite Stick. There had to be another factor that was being missed. It was determined that the flexibility of a hockey stick is not the only factor that impacts the distance and velocity of the puck.
Introduction Physarum is a yellow colored single celled organism that holds a large amount of nuclei and can release tubes while it finds food (Costello, 2013). The physarum also enjoys cool damp areas that are wet where it feasts food such as dead matter, bacteria, and oat flakes (Miranda, 2013). Physarum’s growth can be affected by exposure to mold, light, and weather inclements. The physarum reacts to different types of stimuli which can also affect its growth. The physarum can be affected by sound, light, and electrical activity because of when it forages, it releases electrical activity that produces its reactions (Miranda, 2011).
The position of the club face is one of the most important aspects of achieving impact in your golf swing. In order to achieve this, the club face should present as square shape as it provides force and length to your swing. The center of gravity is the point in an object where gravity appears to act (Khan Academy, 2017). It is placed directly between the base of support which enables balance and
In order to provide the golfer the opportunity to execute the biomechanics of the golf swing efficiently and meet the requirements of the body swing connection, professionals within industry suggest the implementation of a golf specific strength and conditioning program. All to often the amateur golfer will implement a general fitness program in an attempt to develop the physical requirements needed for the swing. The results are less than optimal from such a program because it does not address the specific requirements of the body in terms of mobility, flexibility, stability, strength, and power relative to the sport of golf. What the amateur golfer must understand relative to fitness training and golf, is in order for improvements to occur in the biomechanics of the golf swing, not only must the amateur golfer develop the underlying physical requirements of the swing, these requirements need to do be developed specifically to the positions, movement patterns, and physical requirements of the swing. This results in what is termed a transfer of training effect from the conditioning program to the actual performance benefits on the golf
As the marble slides down the first drop it will lose much of its potential energy corresponding to the loss of height. The marble subsequently gains kinetic energy – kinetic energy is contingent to the mass and the velocity of an object. The marble speeds up as it loses height, consequently, their potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. Newton’s Second Law states that an object’s net external force is equal to its mass times its acceleration; simply, the acceleration is proportional to the force applied and also the mass of the object.
You use your hand, wrist, arm, abdomen, and legs. With the use of these muscle groups you will stay active. When you swing a golf club constantly you’re arms and shoulders will start to hurt and burn. This make golf harder than it already is.
The golf swing takes in total of 17 muscle groups in the coordinated movement of hands, wrists, arms, abdomen, and legs according to the study in the BMJ (British Medical Journal). Playing golf on a professional level requires ability to be able to walk long distances (on average 4.5 miles) and hit the ball long and straight with consistency. Golf’s demand for physical use often results in injuries. Since golf demands so much physical movements up to 62 percent of amateur golfers and approximately 88 percent of professional golfers end up with injuries each year. Playing golf can lead to injuries in the lower back, wrist, hand, shoulder, or head.
