Summary

This experiment is about the static calibration of a differential pressure transducer. Test measurements are done to find the range of input and output of the transducer, and to determine the “best-fit” line that models how the voltage reading would equate to the real pressure measurement. The input pressure comes from a hydraulic ram with pressure gauge. The output of the differential pressure transducer is in voltage, and is measured by a digital voltmeter. The input pressure is varied from 0 to 6 bar, and the three voltage readings are recorded for each pressure step value.

Employment laws meant to cushion the employees against any form of oppression they may face at their workplaces (Cabrelli 2010). In UK, these employment laws differed in that workers and employees enjoyed different protection, the employees enjoys greater rights than workers. Despite the difference, every person working for an employer is entitled to national minimum wage, protection from discrimination and right not to work for more than 48 hours per week. The employment laws apply universally whether the employees and workers are permanent or working on a temporary basis (Langley 2011). Employment regulations reviewed each year particularly ...

Introduction

Biological reactions are those reactions that are involved in various activities, in the body including energy production. Reactions that produce energy are called exergonic reactions while those that use energy are called endergonic reactions. Enzymes enable chemical reactions to take place within a living system most of which are under a homeostatic constraint. In these reactions, enzymes function as a catalyst by lowering the activation energy necessary in a reaction (Cooper, 2000). Enzymes bring the reactants involved in a reaction closer together weakening the chemical bonds and this enable the reactions to occur faster compared to reactions that have no enzyme (Farabee, 2010).

Abstract

In an ecosystem, the existence of any species of animals or plants solely depends on the capability to adapt to its environment. This is true because, those species which are poorly adapted become extinct. For example, trees that could not adapt to harsh conditions of the desert were eliminated and those species that were well adapted were spared. This is basically what is called natural selection (Jeff et al 9). Similarly, those animal species that could not adapt to any given environmental conditions of an ecosystem were easily eliminated out of existence.
Human being, on the other hand, ...

In any collision, where the system is not subject to external forces, linear momentum will be conserved. In case the collision is elastic, kinetic energy will also be conserved. In this experiment, two steel balls were made to collide momentarily, and the projection of their 2D collision dynamics was recorded for analysis. The vectors measured using the carbon paper, are related to the momenta of the balls before and after collision. These were used in the respective equations to verify linear momentum conservation and elastic collision, i.e. kinetic energy conservation.

Before a property developer decides to contract a contractor, bids for tender are usually called by the developer. Therefore it rests upon the contractors to come up an offer that best suits the property developer and the contractor. There are several ways that the contactors can approach the construction project with regard to the contract. One of the methods is to allow the construction firm develop the property at a refundable cost and then allow a profit that will granted upon completion. This type of contract is commonly referred to as the cost-plus contract. The other type of the contract is whereby the ...

Introduction

A refrigerator is an electrical device used in temperature maintenance below ambient temperatures. To achieve this function, the refrigerator should be able to create a heat sink at cold room temperatures a temperature that should be lower than the ambient temperature while at the same time also rejecting heats having higher temperatures than the ambient temperatures. To achieve this refrigerant is forced to undergo evaporation at temperatures lower than the ambient temperature(Griffiths, 1937). When the refrigerant is compressed at high pressure and condensing temperatures above the ambient temperature results in the loss of heat and condensation back to ...
