Extended Practical Investigation

Student Number:Purpose The Purpose of this investigation is to explore how the terminal

velocity of a sphere falling through glycerol varies with the temperature of the glycerol

and the size of the sphere.Introduction In the early stages of the project it was intended to investigate how

the speed of a sphere falling through glycerol varies with the size of the sphere.

However, after analysis it was decided that the investigation would be more callenging if

a second variable was incorporated. There are many constants that could have been

manipulated such as, amount of glycerol used, distacnce over which times were taken,

distance sphere was allowed to fall before timing was taken and the temperature of the

glycerol. After much consultation it was decided that the temperature of the glycerol

should be varied. Once this had benn incorporated into the investigation some scientific

concepts related to the viscosity of a liquid had to be attained. (Refer to article). In conducting the experiments an attempt was made to attain results

that could, produce graphs that showed the terminal velocity of a sphere related to the

temperature of the glycerol and the terminal velocity of a sphere related to its size.Apparatus used• 600 ml of glycerol (density 1.26/ml. Assay 98.0 – 101.0%)

• Small ball bearings of radius: 3.175mm

3.960mm

5.000mm

6.000mm

7.000mm• 900 ml measuring cylinder

• Stop watch

• Thermometer

• Some type of heating and cooling device to varie the temperature

of the glycerol

• TweezersVariables and Constants The variables that have been used in this investigation are the size of

the ball bearings and the temperature of the glycerol. The constants that have been used

in this investigation are the amount of glycerol used, the size of the measuring cylinder,

the intervals at which time were taken, the distance the sphere was allowed to drop before

times were taken and the number of tests taken.Method To begin experimentation the distance over which the sphere accelerates

to reach terminal velocity had to be determined. This was done by systematically varying

the distance over which the sphere was allowed to fall then finding the point at which the

spheres acceleration is zero. It was found that for the sphere to reach terminal velocity

it had to be allowed to fall 6 – 7 centimeters before an accurate, constant reading could

be taken. It was found that the distance needed for a sphere to reach terminal velocity is

only slightly changed when the temperature of the glycerol is varied (+/- 0.2cm). To attain that the sphere had reached terminal velocity by varying the

distance that the sphere fell before timing began, the distance was varied from 2cm to

10cm. Starting at 2cm the measuring cylinder was marked at 2cm intervals and times were

taken for each interval. the times taken were analysed to determine if the rate of descent

of the sphere was constant for each reading. To ensure that the sphere had reached

terminal velocity a full 10 cm of descent was allowed. Using ‘Stokes law for the terminal velocity of a sphere falling under

gravity’ and the relationship of mg = U + F at terminal velocity the above result is

proven. These calculations can be seen in the results section. For all experiments room temperature was recorded at 20oc. The first part of the experiment was to vary the size of the ball

bearing but not the temperature. A sphere of 3.175mm in diameter was dropped from just

above water level and allowed to fall 6 cm before timing began. Once the sphere had fallen

the initial 6 cm timings were taken at intervals along the measuring cylinder every 200ml

(10cm). This experiment was repeated 4 times and an average was taken.

The experiment was then repeated using ball bearings of sizes 3.960mm,

5.00mm, 6.00mm, 7.00mm, 9.00mm. Each individual experiment was repeated 4 times and an

average was taken. All results are shown in the results section. The second part of the experiment was to vary the temperature of the

glycerol but not the ball bearing size. A sphere of 3.175mm was chosen to be used in all

experiments, due to its extremely slow descent rate. The same procedure as above was used

except five temperatures of 7oc, 12 oc, 15 oc, 17 oc and 20 oc for the glycerol were used.

Chart One

Note that there is a reflex error for all the recordings of +/- 0.1

seconds. Also, the first timing interval cannot be used for any calculations as the sphere

has not yet reached terminal velocity. This is a graph representing how the velocity of a 3.175mm sphere

varies with the temperature of the glycerol.

This is a graph representing how the velocity of a sphere varies with

the diameter of that sphere.Analysis of Results Chart One demonstrates that as expected the terminal velocity of the

sphere increases as the temperature of the glycerol and the size of ball bearings

increase. Graphs one and two visually illustrate this point and it can be seen by the

positive gradient shown. It is interesting to note that the change of velocity with the

temperature is signifigantly greater as the temperature becomes higher (15oc to 20.5 oc).

The reason for this is directly related to the change in viscosity as the temperature is

varied. As the temperature increase the viscosity becomes less and so the sphere is able

to move freely through this less viscous liquid thus having a greater terminal velocity. A

chart of temperatures and their relative viscosities for glycerol is shown in appendix

two. A hypothetical relationship can be developed between velocity and temperature. The

shape of the graph, although not smooth, is a curve and therefore it is reasonable to

suggest that the relationship would invole T to the power of something: ie) v = kTn (where

k is a constant). Thus, Log10v = Log10k + n Log10T, where n takes the gradient value. If a

graph of Log10v vs. Log10T is plotted it may be possible to form a relationship.(Graph 3) A line of best fit for the above graph gives a gradient of 2.69.

Therefore a hypothesis for the relationship between velocity and temperature is V =

kT2.69. Of course for the results to be most accurate the sphere would ideally have

reached terminal velocity when the times in graph three were taken. An attempt has been

made to calcualte the terminal velocity at 20oc using stokes law and the relationship mg =

U + F at terminal velocity so that it can be compared to the velocity found at this

temperature.THIS GRAPH SHOWS HOW VELOCITY VARIES WITH TIME Refering to the graph the velocitites of the ball bearings for each

temperature are shown. These results can be proven using Stoke’s Law (for a detailed

description of Stoke’s Law and other related physics concepts refer to the article),

but due word limit restrictions these calculations have been removed. From chart one a relationship between the size of a ball bearing and

its velocity can also be formed. Studying graph two it can be seen that there is a gradual

curve which indictes that it is reasonable to suggest that the relationship would once

again involve T to power of something. Therefore a relationship could be formed using a

Log-Log graph, shown below. Using a line of best fit the gradient can be found as 0.638. Therefore

the relationship between the Log of Velocity vs. Log of Diameter is V = kD0.638. All

discrepancies in calculations for graph five and the same as for graph three.DifficultiesDifficulties encounted during this investigation are:

? Trying to establish weather the sphere had reached terminal velocity before timing

began.

? Trying to maintain the temperature attained once the glycerol has been heated or

cooled.

? Human errors when timing.

? Human errors in general.

? Transfering the glycerol from the measuring cylinder to bottles without loosing any.

? Trying to hold the ball bearings just above the glycerol without dropping them in.

? Trying to perform as many tests as possible (in an effort to get a more accurate

average) within the time allocated in class.Although every difficulty was hard work to around, trying to establish weather the sphere

had reached terminal velocity before timing began was the main difficulty encountered.Errors% error in distance = 0.15cm x 100 = 1.5%

sphere falling through glycerol varies with the temperature and the size of the sphere.

From the results shown I believe that the investigation was a success.Conclusions As a result of this investigation it can clearly be concluded that as

the temperature of glycerol increases, viscosity decreases and therefore any sphere

falling through the glycerol will experience an increase in terminal velocity. Also the

rate of increase in velocity is greater as the temperature rises. This is because the less

viscous the state of the glycerol, the more freely the sphere is able to fall. It can also

be concluded that as the diameter of the sphere increases the weight of the sphere

increases and therefore its terminal velocity increases.BibliographyDe Jong, Physics Two Heinman Physics in Context, Australia 1994
