UAS English for Special Purpose

1.     Design a simple research about the kinetic energy associated with your daily life and arrange your report in accord with the sixth science process skills you have already understood!
Answer :
Have you been drive a bicycle? What cause the bike moved?
Drive a bicycle was an activity where moving the foot pedal and pedal bicycles moving the rear wheels so the bike can move. foot adds kinetic energy to a process which the pedal can rotate, then the rotation flowed kinetic energy into gear the rear wheels so that the rear wheels spin and the bicycle move from point A to point B.
 In everyday life, we rarely find with a moving object along a straight path, for example bicycles are not always moving forwards, sometimes turn if no curves, sometimes the brakes if there are holes in the road. it's just a straight trajectory model that we use to help us analyze the motion of objects, though more easily. Remember that every moving object must have velocity (v). Objects also have a mass (m). So kinetic energy is the energy that actually describes the mass of an object moving at a certain speed. In mathematically, kinetic energy of an object is expressed by the equation: K = ½ mv2    
Kinetic energy are grouped into two, namely the translational kinetic energy and rotational kinetic energy. When cycling occurs rotational kinetic energy. Rotational kinetic energy is the energy possessed by objects that perform rotational motion.
When I experimented with using the bike, I can calculate kinetic energy by using the formula. Given the mass of cyclists and mass 50kg 30kg bicycle with a speed of 2m/s, so it can be searched kinetic energy values :
 
K = 1/2 m  v^2
K = 
1/2(50kg+30kg)(2m/s)^2
K = 
1/2(80kg)(4m^2/s^2)
K = 160 J
 From the kinetic energy formula, we can analyze that if the speed is increased then the energy will kineticnya increases because kinetic energy is proportional to velocity.
 We could take a conclusion that kind of kinetic energy if we were cycling, rotation kinetic energy, because bicycles always do rotational motion.

2.     Describe an experiment which associated with the following terms : pendulum, frictional force and highest point. then enter the terms into the procedure so that these terms included in your experiment!
Answer :

In this experiment, I do experiment about simple pendulum for know the value of gravitation. Simple pendulum consist of a rope of length L and mass m pendulum ball. The force who work on the ball pendulum is gravity (w = mg) and rope tension force FT. Weight force has component mg cos that directly with rope and mg sin that perpendicular with rope. The pendulum oscillates due to the gravity component mg sin. In analyzing the simple pendulum motion, the friction force with the air  can we ignorethe and mass of rope is very negligible so we can ignore relative to the ball. Because there is no air resistance force, the pendulum did oscillation along the arc with the same amplitude. Pendulum hanging on the thread that hanging vertically. The pendulum is pulled aside and released so that things move back and forth between two separate points, lowest point and highest point.

The procedure :

1.  Prepare the materials of experiment such as thread, 3 pendulum ball that have mass 50gr,80gr,100gr, hook, protractor, ruler, stopwatch.
2. Cut thread more than 20cm, then bind thread on hook and be sure the length of thread is 20cm with measure the thread after binding.
3. Bind pendulum ball that have mass 50gr.
4. Pull aside and released so that things move back and forth between two separate points, that are lowest point and highest point so that make a deviation 10 with use protactor.


5.
Measure the time required for the pendulum to reach 10 period with stopwatch.
6. Repeat the above steps for 2 different length of thread (L) 25cm and 30cm, 2 different mass of pendulum ball that have mass 80gr and 100gr, and 2 different deviation 15 and 20.
7. Calculate the value of gravitation from 3 experiments with formula, g =4vhi/T^2 
L
    where, g = gravitation
          T = period of pendulum
               L = length of thread
the friction force ignore
8. Add up 3 value of gravitation and then divided by 3. We will find the value of gravitation.

3.     Make a simple calculation about electrical using the formula your well known. write done your solution and explain it by using your sentence ( change the number or symbol) !
Answer :
A simple electrical circuit consisting of a battery as a power source voltage ε and a load resistor R. If Vis 10 volts and R is 2 Ω, specify  electric current flowing !
Solution :
I = V/R

I = 10 volt/5ohm
I = 5A
Read :
electric current (I) equal with voltage (V) and inversly with resistance (R)
electric current (I) is ten volt divided by two ohm
electric current (I) is five ampere


4.     Make an essay about sound as a wave . then show at least three evidences and exemplifying about it!
Answer :

Sound is a mechanical wave that propagates because of the medium. Basically, this group of sounds into the wave mechanics is based on the typical properties by the wave groups. The sound has the properties by wave mechanics.  Sound waves which include wave mechanics, has some properties / characteristics of wave mechanics, such as:
1.     Require a medium to propagate (water, air, solid). The sound we find anywhere, as long as it's in there are air, water or solids.
2.     Sound  is a longitudinal wave. There is a mechanical wave-shaped longitudinal, in example sound. But there is a form of transverse waves on a string . The sound is one of the waves, it’s  longitudinal wave. Longitudinal wave is a wave whose direction spread parallel or coincide with the direction of vibration. Sound waves can not propagate in a vacuum because there is no air particles in the air in vacuum area. Sounds is longitudinal waves because the area around the sound propagation is having density and gap.
3.     Sounds produced by vibrations generated by a musical instrument, or other vibrating objects. Every object vibrates definitely produce sound. But not everything can be heard by our ears,it  depend on frequency, wave energy and the distance of the sound source from us.
4.     Sound is can’t do diffraction, polarization, refraction, and other symptoms are experienced only transverse waves.
There are some requirements that the sound can be heard by the human ear, such as:
• Sound have the appropriate natural frequency same with limit of human hearing.
• Located at a distance that can be heard.
• Sound have enough energy through human eardrum. At the sound wave is a longitudinal wave, the sound propagates in a direction parallel.
Three evidences :
-   human voice
-   sound of musical instrument
-   sound of a tuning forks.
Examples :
-   If we are talking, we will feel vibration on our neck. It caused by vibration in the human vocal cords, and propagates through the medium of sound so that the air can be up to our ears.
-   If we are playing guitar and we strum the guitar strings, so it will vibrating and we will hear the sound of it.
-   If we vibrate the tuning fork, so there is sound from it. Tuning fork tooth movement in and out causing the surrounding air pressure difference. Low pressure areas around the sound source that we are familiar with gap, and high-pressure area is that we know the density.

Light Can Be Reflected


Have you ever observed objects around you? Why are these objects can be seen by our eyes?. They may be seen by our eyes because of the light reflected from the object towards the eye. The symptoms are related to the presence of light or light reflection. Try to shine a flashlight into the dark walls of your room. You will see the light of a flashlight or irregular diffuse reflected by the wall. Why is that?

Now do the following activities in front of the mirror. Look at yourself in the mirror. You can look in the mirror because the light coming from yourself reflected in the mirror, then the mirror is reflected back to the eye. This is one of the properties of light that light can be reflected if it relates to a surface. Regular reflection, reflection on the surface of the object / objects are flat reflection as in a mirror, so that the reflected rays are parallel and regular.


Diffuse Reflection term meaning irregular reflection, reflection on the reflection surfaces are uneven, so that the reflected light reflected off all directions and irregular.



The mirror is an object that reflects light. Based on existing flat mirror surface shape and curved mirrors. Curved mirrors are of two kinds, namely convex mirror and concave mirror.

a.     Flat mirror
Flat mirror surface is mirror that have flat reflective field and not curved. You usually use flat mirrors to reflect. At the mirror, you'll see your shadow in the mirror. How to shade yourself in the mirror? is it same?


When you reflect on, you can see that the shadow on a flat mirror has the following properties:

1) Size (big and tall) equal to the size of the shadow object.
2) Distance to a mirror reflection equals the distance of objects in the mirror.
3) The appearance of a shadow against the object. For example, your left hand will be the right-hand shadow.
4) The image of the object upright.
5) The image is false or virtual. That is, the shadow can be seen in the mirror, but can not be captured by the screen.

b.     Convex mirror
Convex mirror surface is mirror that have reflective field curved outwards. Convex mirror is used to spy on motorists. The shadow on the convex mirror is virtual, erect, and smaller (reduced) than the real thing.



c.      Concave mirror
Concave mirror is a plane mirror that have reflective field curve inside. Concave mirror is usually used as a reflector in the headlights danlampu flashlight.

The nature of the shadow object formed by a concave mirror depends on the location of the object to the mirror.
1)   If the object is close to the concave mirror, the image of the object is upright, more
large, and the apparent (virtual).
 
2) If the object away from a concave mirror, the image of the object is real (true) and reversed.

From the disscusion above, we conclude that every object can be seen by our eyes because there is reflection of light.
