NICHOLAS TAN JIa JUN ROCKS

PHYSICS TYPE REPORT

1. Most of the mass of the Singapore flyer is located at the two biggest poles at the centre of the flyer which is the pivot to move the flyer. The poles lead up to the centre of the circular shape of the flyer. That is the most important part in stabilizing the whole structure. This is due to the laws of centre of gravity. The centre of gravity of an object is defined as the point through which its whole weight appears to act for any orientation of the object. An object’s weight pushes downward towards the ground due to gravity. When an object is pivoted at a corner this would cause a turning effect or it will be tipped over. However if you put the pivot at the centre of the object, it will be more stabilized. There is a force to force action and the pivot must be a perpendicular angle towards the object.

2. Compared to the stop and start technique, for the flyer to turn continuously is much better. Stopping and starting would require much more electricity and the greenhouse gas produced to form electricity might increase, contributing to global warming. The second way is an object with mass is reluctant to change its state of rest or motion. This is called inertia. When the flyer stops and start to let people get in and out, there would be an unpleasant jerk in all the capsules and people might not enjoy that. If the capsule stops the people that has mass, planted on the floor, would lean forward. Same as when the flyer starts.

What i have done this weeks (4)

As most of us know that this week was the last week of june holiday. We had to go back to school after this week. I think most of us would think why cant the school holiday be longer? But i think that if the school holiday was longer the before, we cant perpare for the end of year exam. There will not be enough time for us and for the teacher to perpare all the subject for the last exam of this year. Also, i belive that others would be happy when school reopen as we could be able to meet our friends agains.As some of us hate to go school to study as they have not finish their holiday homeworks. I hope everyone could work hard and pass their exam with flying colours. Also, i hope i could be a happy young boy. I had done alot houseworks as my mum was not feeling well.That all for this week.Hope you can give me some conments.Have a nice day and good bye.

What i have done this weeks (3)

This week... i had done alot new things and learn alot new skill from the seconday 1 NPCC camp. I learn how to teach them to cook the food and also, i found new friends in the seconday 1. I hope next year we could help up to set up all the items and play together with them. In this camp, i learn how set up the camp inorder to make the camp a happy ending as this was a challen to us. To make the camp a happy ending, is need alot people to help up to perpare all the activities. Also, i wish the camp in next year will be better then this as most of the sec 1 was not active at all. Most of us tried to made them be active like us and have fun in this camp but they did not make it. I hope this wont happen next year.This year, NPCC got the 2 best male and female camper in the sec 2 camp ;that me and carmen. I wish next year the sec 2 camper will get his 2 award back to our school again. This could make our school NPCC proud of it as about 10 years, our NPCC member did not came back with a best camper.That all for this week, see u all next week =x
