Introduction

Weighing machines have long been used for measuring weights of various objects. The basic principle behind weight measurement is balancing of force due to gravity of an object with some known standard. You could easily find weight of small objects by using standard weighing balances having pair of pans i.e. one carrying the object to be weighed and the other is used to put loads of known weights until machine is balanced. This method cannot be applied on large scales involving heavy machinery, vehicles, or even humans. Another traditional method of weighing involves balancing force of an object due ...

EXPERIMENT TO INVESTIGATE THE SUDDEN FLOW OF WATER IN THE TAPS AT HOME

This study is going to investigate the sudden floor of water in my house. Water running from the tap is usually enabled by many factors such as shortage in the reservoir tanks, absence of power to pump it up and down the reservoirs among other factors.

In my house, there is a massive water reservoir located at the top of the building. Water is pumped from the public water lines to the dam at the reservoir tank by use of electricity. Once the water is pumped, and the tanks are full, it flows by some force whether gravity or not ...

There are many types of pollution that drove the World to be in critical situation. Not only the developed countries are responsible about this issue, but also the developing countries are more pinpointed since they have low standards and criteria to keep the environment healthier. One of these types is seas pollution. Often the ability of water to cleanse itself is already inadequate to cope with the ever increasing number of pollution. “A great deal of water pollution happens not from one single source but from many different scattered sources” (Woodford). Fields of pollution generated mainly in the coastal ...

Introduction

Pumps installed in fire engines either hoses out water from the fire tanker or suck water from a source such as fire hydrants, lakes, or pools. Different mechanisms control the pumping of water from a water source to the scene of the fire. Usually, a 6 inch suction pipe is used to extract water out of the water tank or an external water source. The water is then discharged out through exit lines or hoses with a certain force to eventually quench the fire.

The Impeller Pump

The main source that pumps water is the impeller water pump. This is a propeller type device that has curved ...

Abstract The tidal cycle of natural water bodies present challenges for sampling and interpreting physical, chemical and biological data. The Rainbow Channel at Morton Bay was the location for a field work project on sampling characteristics about the biota and about water quality parameters. Rainbow Channel experiences ocean flushing dependent on daily, monthly, seasonal, and annual at regular natural time intervals. Both daytime and night time sampling took place to better understand 24 hourly and daily cycles of nutrient concentrations, salinity, temperature, fluorescence and currents. Primary productivity takes place at different three different depths. The rate of productivity depends ...
