    Exploring Gamma Ray Directionality and Intensity in Experiment Design

    Firstly, do gamma rays spread out evenly or do they spread in random directions? Secondly, how do I test the effect of gamma ray radiations intensity at different direction in a way comparable to the effect of light intensity on an LDR? thanks!

    How could you test that gamma rays spread out in different directions?

    Thanks! I've got to do an experiment this week on the affect of changing Light intensity on Resistance due to LDR..would this two experiments be related in their results? i.e. can I expect to see a 1/x^2 relationship.

    The affect of changing Light intensity on Resistance due to LDR

    Hi there, Is there any specific instrument though? Vernier callipers (sp?) I was told possibly? Cheers

    The affect of changing Light intensity on Resistance due to LDR

    Hi there, Thanks a lot for your response. Is your answer in response to the question about how to prove gamma rays spread out in different directions? Could you help with the other questions if possible too? Many thanks M B

    The affect of changing Light intensity on Resistance due to LDR

    I've got an experiment coming up where I have to find out how the resistance in a circuit changes as more layers of 'tracing paper' are added onto a LDR i.e. as more paper is added the light intensity will fall and as a result the resistance through the circuit will increase. I am testing for...

    V-Shaped Pendulum Help - Formula & Analysis

    Hey there, Basically we had an experiment where we had to change the distance 'd' on a v shaped pendulum (0.5d for each side of the V)..where the value 's' which is the hypotenuse distance of the V stayed constant but the vertical distance changed. does the following formula hold:- we know...

    Constructing experiment to prove P=IV

    Not sure if the title is clear enough, but basically I've got a practical in a couple of days time and I have to construct an experiment to prove that P=IV by proving that P is greatest when the value of r (internal resistance) is zero and total resistance is equal to R (normal resistance)...
