    Graduate Red shift distance relationship and dark energy

    It is my understanding that there is evidence from the red shift/distance relationship that while the rate of universal expansion was once decreasing (from the Big Bang until about 6-7 billion years ago -BYA for short), at about 6-7 BYA it began increasing. This, as I understand it, is the main...

    Undergrad Energy time relationship from an observer in space

    So here we have the simple equation: E\uparrow T\downarrow This can also be stated by saying that the more massive (energetic) an object in space is, the less time it will exist for. But if time passes slower in areas of space near more massive bodies, wouldn't an observer near...

    Graduate Acceleration & Mass relationship

    Apologies in advance if this question is either stupid or has been asked frequently. I have googled and googled but cannot find a answer. Special relativity says that when a body accelerates its mass increases and its length decreases. This continues until the body approaches the speed of...

    Investigating the Relationship Between Max Theta and Period in a Simple Pendulum

    I am working on my lab report for the simple pendulum and we did an experiment where we increased the max theta in increments of 5 degrees, while keeping the length of the sting the same.

    Relationship between d.c. volts and electrolysis in steel

    We use a 10v a.c. signal through to a small steel sensor (SMO 254) in wastewater - and the control device looks for a conductive path to ground to determine that the level of liquid is over the sensor. We don't use d.c. because of the electrolysis effect - but the circuit we use could have a...

    High School Relationship between pressure, density, temperature, and state of matter

    How do pressure, density, state of matter, and temperature relate? these are my points, are they right?: 1. Higher temperature makes an object less dense 2. Density governs the state of matter for the object, hence as water becomes less and less dense, it becomes gas (water vapour) 3...
