The scientific question of the project was, Does the size of a tire affect the bike’s speed? The hypothesis was , If the smaller tires were used, then the bike would go faster. The important procedures were: Make sure all equipment is ready. Test the standard wheel of 1 rotation or pedal a second to ride to the finish line. Test smaller and bigger wheels. Record data and have at least 3 trials. Record the data on a piece of paper and compare results to your hypothesis. The Independent variable is the size of the wheel on the bike. The Dependent variable is the standard wheel or tire on the bike. The control group was the bike’s speed and the standard wheel or tire. The Experimental group is the other tires or wheels being tested on the bike. The control variables were the rate of pedaling , the same bike model was used, and the same distance for …show more content…
The background research had talked about different types and sizes of wheel and the distance in can cover in a certain amount of time. The tools used were: a stopwatch ,to record the speed. A bike and 3 different tires were used to conduct the main part of the experiment. Tools like a wrench was used to help fix the bikes tires and replace the smaller, bigger, or standard tires. The science experiment was very successful and went well. Other considerations are to use more different tires to have a variety of information to make sure there were no extraneous variables in the experiment that caused the results to have the outcome it had. More trials could have been used to also help make a more of an accurate data table to also make sure there were no extraneous variables. Other things that could have been done was to have made sure the surface was level at all times. It could have an effect on the speed of the bike. It could have caused the data to have a different
The objective of the lab was to program a vehicle to continuously drive in a one meter square. The square was to be completed in less than 20 seconds, and only the wheel encoder could be used to navigate the vehicle. All of this was done by using the Arduino software tool and the Redbot library to create a program that would satisfy the given lab requirements.
Next, the independent variable was the sail car and shed car. The speed acceleration was the dependent variable. The constants marble distance of photogate the angel of the track.
We researched information from. Before I didn’t know what was a mousetrap car was and how it was used. I learned that the whole idea how to build a mousetrap car. Also, I learned that velocity is really important on how to build a mousetrap car. Most importantly I learned that it is hard to draw any accurate conclusions besides the fact that good construction is required for a good vehicle. My partner and I was first designed is the tires are CD's because we thought help the car go faster.
Like the Reynolds X100, 7005 Aluminum is an aluminum alloy but consisting of Zinc and Magnesium. Due to its cost and inconvenience of heat treating, 7005 aluminum has gained considerable popularity with smaller companies.
The aim of the experiment is to examine how the acceleration of the car differs when the angle of inclination of the ramp is amplified and to record and analyse findings.
When constructing the mousetrap car, each team member had different ideas. The group considered each idea and included it into the construction of the car. Some team members wanted to test friction, by switching the wheels of the car. The group would test CD wheels and paper plate wheels. The group also wanted to test the axle gearing. The group wanted to test this to see if the speed would increase.The group also had tested the lever arm length, so the speed could be tested. The group tested different lengths, 5 inches and 10 inches. The group tested each of these
The purpose of this lab was to find out how the amount of time that has elapsed affect the position of the car away from the point of origin. Our hypothesis was if the time elapsed is longer, then the car is going to be further away from the point of origin. In this lab the independent variable-what you are changing is time. The dependent variable-what you are measuring is how far the car is from the point of origin after a certain amount of time (3 seconds, 6 seconds, and 9 seconds). The controls-things that stay the same throughout the whole lab is the car we used, the meter stick that we measured in centimeters with, and the 40 centimeters of tape that we used to mark the position of the car. Materials we used was a car, 40 centimeters of
This is an experimental study because it involves the manipulation of the variables at various degrees and seeing the effects of such a manipulation.
The independent variable in this situation is the color of the paper given. The experimental group of 12 year old students is the group being administered the yellow colored paper. The results from this is going to be compared to the control group of 12 year olds who are going to be taking the same math test
“Ugh I really wish I had the money to buy that dirt bike” I said as me and mymom argued about the things I want. My mom and I spent all day trying to figureout a way I could earn the money for the dirt bike I want. I spent hours thinkingon about what I could do to earn the money finally my mom came in andsuggested I should get a summer job.That’s it I could get a summer job to earn the money. I just need to figurewhat jobs I would qualify for, I need one that’s not to hard but also not to easy.My mom suggested I work for little ceasers , but I thought that wouldn’t pay wellso I was still thinking. Finally it hit me, I could mow and work on lawns, I thoughtwhy not it might help the community. It was finale I am mowing lawns for mysummer job.Why
These past few years have been very trying for High Land Bikes. Our Kids Bike and Commuter Bikes have shown
This incident involves the suspect renting two mountain bicycles and not returning them in violation of PC 487(a)-Grand Theft.
The marker tape, along with a meter stick was used to measure the distance traveled by the ball at the first bounce. Using the LabQuest to measure the velocities the projectiles were launched at helped minimize error. If the launch speed had been left uncontrolled, the results would have been inconsistent, as the projectile could have been launched to an unreasonable distance compared to the controlled trials, and our initial velocities would have been either too high or too low. Keeping our pressure used to launch at 25 psi and watching the projectile launcher were both critical to achieving consistent
Foundations are the core item of a house. Earthquakes test the stability of a house. With just those few seconds of an earthquake, it could affect someone’s life immediately. The question is does the layer between soil and a house foundation affect the house’s structure during an earthquake? The hypothesis is if the layer between soil and a cement foundation of a house, then a t-shirt will allow a foundation to move less. The different layer types is the independent variable, while the dependent variable is the how long the house lasted in seconds. Soil as a layer was the control group. The experimental group is the foundations with the layers. Also these are the control variables: the same house design, made of popsicle sticks, was used. Another
Every year someone seems to claim that they have come up with the world 's first spokeless bicycle. These claims are accurate in that the bicycle that they have created are indeed spokeless. However, most of these models are deemed unable to be rode and need much more work. That is why I was hesitant when I heard about a group of Yale engineers and their spokeless bicycle invention. Even though I felt like it would be just like all the others, I decided to learn a bit more about it and wanted to pass on my finding to the rest of you. A group of Yale students decided that creating a spokeless bicycle would be a great accomplishment for one of their mechanical design classes. What makes their version of the spokeless bicycle completely
