Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Q_Goest, Thank you very much. We have started experimenting already. Since we couldn't afford buying the pipes online we instead bought 2 inch Diameter Galvinized pipe, and got caps and sealent on both ends. One cap has a "T" connecter, which in one side we screw in a pressure gauge and one...- Mach15

Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Hello. Yes we need to talk about the safety of the project. So, oxygen and hydrogen are out then. Yes we plan to use high pressure the cylinders you describe, unless our local industrial gas supplier stores gas differently. It is not so much that we can't afford something, it is that we are...- Mach15

Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Thanks very much for the reply and the design. I think we will use your design for our science fair project. I have a few questions though. I looked at the Polytropic equation,do you think you could explain to me some things about it. First of all, P1 and P2, what two pressure values are...- Mach15

Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Hello Q_goest, Thanks for your reply and your advice. You guessed our science fair project research question correctly, the research question is (It can be changed if necessary) "What is the relationship between the compressability of a particular gas and it's temperature increase when...- Mach15

Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Thank you for the replies. Greetings. Initially, thanks guys.:smile: It's good to know that we are on the right track. We have seen hyperphysics before its a great site. It took us a long time to figure out what a mole was, so we will look over hyperphysics and if we do have (which we probably...- Mach15

Undergrad Discovering Gas Compressibility: 8th Grade Science Fair Project
Hello everyone. We are working on a 8th grade science fair project. We are trrying to conduct experiments that will let us find the relationship of a particular gas's compressabilty and its temerature increase when compressed. We are trying to make the project reletivly advanced, and hope to be...- Mach15
