Scientific Method

1. Notify - Notify the machinery and equipment owner/operator of the upcoming work to be performed. If there is a question about who the affected workers are, the authorized worker shall notify the machinery and equipment owner/operator. In all other cases, the authorized worker must notify affected employees.

2. Shut Down - If the machine or equipment is operating, shut it down by the normal stopping/sequential procedure (depress stop button, open toggle switch, etc.).

3. Isolate / Relieve Energy Sources - Operate the switch, valve, or other energy isolating devices so the equipment is isolated from its energy sources. Dissipate or restrain stored energy (such as that in springs, elevated machine members, rotating flywheels, hydraulic systems, and air, gas, steam, or water pressure, etc.) by methods such as repositioning, blocking, bleeding down, etc.

4. Lockout - Lockout or tagout the energy isolating devices with assigned individual locks or tags (methods selected; i.e., locks, tags, additional safety measures, etc.).

5. Verify - After ensuring that no personnel are exposed, and as a check on having disconnected the energy sources, operate the push button or other normal operating controls to make certain the equipment will not operate (types of equipment checked to ensure disconnection). CAUTION: Return operating controls to "off" or "neutral" position after the test.

6. Perform - The equipment is now locked out or tagged out and service work can be performed.

Generally, one makes a casual observation - apples fall from a tree - and from this one generates an hypothesis - a casual explanation for the observation.

With the hypothesis in mind, an experiment is designed to test or prove/disprove the hypothesis.

With a sufficient number of experiments under your belt, you may now form a theory, which is a much firmer type of being. It may be capable of more general application.

No. Experiments can be done anywhere. Laboratories are indeed handy as they have equipments and surroundings needed for most of the experiments, but you cannot limit experiments to the labs.

The answer to this actually depends on how you define the word laboratory.

If by a laboratory, you mean 'a special room set aside to conduct scientific experiments' then the answer is no. Experiments can be conducted in the field (in other words, outside the lab or even outdoors) in what is known as field research.

However, if you define a laboratory as 'a place in which experiments are conducted' (as in, "The whole world is my laboratory") then the answer is yes. By this definition, wherever you happen to be conducting your experiment - the classroom, the beach, the International Space Station, or even inside your own head - would be considered your lab space.

The way you've phrased the question, however, makes me believe that you intended the word laboratory to have the first definition, i.e. a lab room. By that definition, the answer you're looking for is false, for the reasons outlined above.

The steepness of the ramp affects the direction of the normal force of the object on a ramp (which is always perpendicular to the ramp). The net gravitational force is always straight down.

Using the angle of inclination of the ramp with Trigonometry, you can find the vector forces of gravity perpendicular and parallel to the normal force which makes up the net gravitational force. The parallel portion is in the same direction of the ball rolling down the ramp. This will give you your force of acceleration, which you can use in basic equations to find the velocity of the object.

The steeper the ramp, the faster the object rolls down. A ramp of 0 degrees would result in a ball just sitting on the ramp as normal force and gravitational forces cancel each other. A ramp of 90 degrees would be like a cliff and this would produce the fastest velocity since the ball is moving in the same direction as the force of gravity in free fall. A ramp with an angle between these means that part of the gravitational force is being offset by the normal force.

replication- the action of copying or reproducing something.

repetition-the action of repeating something that has already been said or written.

They are basically the same,but they have a few differences. Replication is like cloning something. Repetition is just repeating something. Repetition is just repeating something. Like with chromosomes, when they reproduce they replicate themselves. If there is a repetition in the gene there is an error. Hopefully you are catching my drift. They are very similar in the fact that with both you are doing something one or more times exactly the same. Hope I helped. :)
