basically

make a ramp using some glass to be tilted onto a piece of wood. you then choose the two fluids you are going to measure and using a pipette, put a drop on the start of the ramp and measure how long it takes to get to the bottom of the ramp. hope this help!

What is the energy conversion when a marble is released from a ramp?

Potential Energy changes to Kinetic Energy.


How can you test the viscosity of a liquid?

you can put a number of fluid of equal volume in a closed see-thru bottle. u can then turn the bottle up side down and once comletetly upside down u can time the time it take for the bubbles to reach the top. the more viscous fluid will take longer for the bubble to reach top


What is the difference between a cyclotron and a linear particle accelerator?

The primary difference is that the cyclotron provides a "circular" path for the accelerated particles, and the linear accelerator provides a "straight tunnel" as a pathway for the accelerated particles. Both devices accelerate particles, but are suited nicely to be used in tandem The cyclotron is frequently applied as the "initiator" of a particle stream in physics labs with multiple accelerators. The cyclotron feeds the linear accelerator, which then provides a final boost to particles before directing them into a target. And this pair of devices can be set up to feed a larger "ring" accelerator. That is a "simple" three-stage setup for generating and accelerating a string of particles to ramp them up to near light speed. The accelerated particles, with their extreme energies, are then directed into selected targets and the scattering reactions observed.


Is acids or base slippery?

friction is a slowing force which happens when two surfaces rub against each other. Rough surfaces create stronger friction than smooth ones do. This is why slides are given smooth slippery surfaces. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to slide down a rough concrete ramp?


Why does the mass of an electron increase in electron acceleration?

The answer lies in the quirks of quantum mechanics. Blame "Big Al" Einstein for these relativistic effects. When we accelerate anything, its mass increases. We don't see it normally because the phenomenon is only pronounced in situations where the accelerated object or "thing" approaches the speed of light. At half light speed, there isn't a ton of stuff happening, but as speeds ramp up near "maxium velocity" for our little particle, its mass ramps up, too. The 80% to 90% and up are marked by pronounced effects. Note that a moving bus has acquired a lot of energy, but that is not the result of relativistic mass differential. There is a difference. In accelerators, we can force particles up to 99% the speed of light. Electrons are relatively easy to accelerate compared to protons because the protons are some 1836 times more massive. Electrons can be accelerated pretty well by "simple" high voltage. Certainly a cyclotron can make them scream. A link is provided below.

Explain what is meant by the ramp method of measuring viscosity.?

HAHA. i came here to look for the answer. After to looking through my textbook a bit i was able to determine that the ramp method is a method of measuring viscosity in which you pour a liquid down a ramp and time how long it takes to get to the bottom, can be used to compare different substance's viscosity.


How can you measure sliding friction?

Since friction is a force, you need either a force meter or a ramp to measure it. It would be easier to measure with the force meter, but the ramp is more reliable. Method 1: Force meter. - attach a force meter to the object. - place the object on the horizontal surface you want to test. - pull the object horizontally until it moves. Keep pulling, while looking at the force meter. - the sliding friction is the average value of that force as you keep pulling. Method 2: Ramp - place your object on the ramp. the ramp should have as its surface the material you want to test. - raise 1 end of the ramp until the object begins to slide. this is the maximum angle you need. - Decrease the angle of elevation slightly. - place the object again on the ramp and nudge it. If it keeps moving, decrease the angle again. Repeat until the object is seen to stop after the nudge. - Use the equation friction = weight of the object in newtons x tangent of the angle. - repeat all steps and take an average value.

Can you make a meaningful sentence using the word ramp?

Example sentence - You should slow down when driving onto the off ramp of a highway.


How does using a ramp make lifting a heavy object easier?

You get mechanical advantage by the slope of the ramp. You move the object horizontally and raise the object slowly as you do so.


How would you find the acceleration of a car going down a ramp.?

You would need to measure the car's velocity at the top and at the bottom, and the time it took to go down the ramp. Acceleration = change of velocity/time.
