    The entirety of this experiment was to conclude if temperature had an effect on enzyme activity. The experiment tested the perimeters of enzyme activity and to see whether or not the temperature had an effect on the amount of substrate produced. Enzymes are especially well known for being catalyst within a reaction (Royal Society of Chemistry). A catalyst is, in this case an enzyme, which speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy required to start the reaction (Royal Society of Chemistry)

    to blood glucose. PCr depletion, ATP decreasing, muscle glycogen depletion, possibly lactic acid accummulation --> increased muscle acidosis (increased H+), Failure of muscle fiber's contractile mechanism 2) glycogen depletion, increased muscle temperature, loss of water (dehydration) and electrolytes (high body T) 12. One mechanism where lactate can be utilized as an energy source is it can be taken in by mitochondria and then be directly oxidized. A second mechanism can be in it being transported

    The purpose of the experiment was to investigate the effect of the temperature of the water on the reaction of the tablet. There was a difference between the tablet in the cold water and the tablet in warm water. The tablet in cold water took 32.17 seconds to completely dissolve, and it took the tablet in warm water 26.67 seconds to completely dissolve. The hypothesis is that if one puts a tablet in cold water and one in warm water, then the water in cold water will take a longer time to dissolve

    accurate and reliable measurement of temperature is necessary in various fields such as industrial , environmental, agriculture , food, biotechnology and clinical sectors etc. furthermore, research labs, clean rooms, and nuclear reactors are the environments which require continuous temperature monitoring a due to their highly dependence on temperature levels. The role of sensors and the errors which may affect the measurement of temperature are critical for temperature measuring devices. The sensor choice

    1. Can temperature ever be lower than dewpoint temperature? why or why not? Air Temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the air, or how hot or cold the air is. Dewpoint is the temperature at which water vapor begins to condense out of the air and form dew, and a measure of how much moisture is in the air. If the temperature reaches the dewpoint then dew will begin to form. If the temperature is at the dewpoint and the temperature falls, the dewpoint must

    during the 2002-03 El Niño event, the water temperature at 50 and at 100 meters below sea surface remained similar from July 18 to September 29 of 2002; however, the water temperature at 100 meters below the surface was slightly colder. After that date range, the water temperature at 100 meters below the surface decreased by ≈5 °C while the temperature at 50 meters below the surface remained constant throughout the entire length of time. The water temperature at 200 meters below the surface remained

    the air temperature goes through the most fluctuations. It is much easier for the ambient air temperature to increase and decrease rapidly. It takes much longer for the much denser ground to both heat up and cool down. During the day the sun’s radiation heats up the air in the atmosphere. This happens for many hours and causes large increases in temperature. The air temperature increases as this occurs, whereas the ground takes much longer. Additionally when the sun sets the temperature begins to

    Abstract: The automatic temperature control system is a very essential feature of a factory or an industry. In most of the case the temperature plays a vital role in the process of manufacturing or the process carried in that factory or industry. The most common and simplest way of controlling temperature is by using a fan which is automatically connected to a network such as it is switched on when the temperature of the surroundings increases. The change in temperature of the surroundings can

    beverage is no longer at a temperature that is considered appealing (hot). The problem that is being investigated is how to prolong the starting temperature of the beverage (coffee) for the longest period of time possible? The coffee is contained within a glass beaker and is surrounded by a jacket of water that has a different temperature that is contained in another vessel to create an effect on the coffee’s temperature. Hypothesis: The hypothesis is that the temperature of the coffee or fluid in

    from a liquid, its temperature drops. The entropy, or random ordering of its particles, also decreases until a specific ordering of the particles results in a phase change to a solid. If energy is being released or absorbed by a substance remaining at the same temperature, this is evidence that a dramatic change in entropy, such as a phase change, is occurring. Because all of the particles of a pure substance are identical, they all freeze at the same temperature, and the temperature will not change
