Additional experiment:oil viscosity

圖片
Following the success of first experiment, here we advance our story with another experiment by testing the oil viscosity using syringe. Using the well developed model: Poiseuille's Law, we can make use of the fact that viscosity of a fluid is proportional to time taken for it to travel through a given distance. Here we measure the time as the time needed for the oil inside a 10ml syringe to completely drained under the pressure of 50g weight. Since the other parameters such as syringe outlet radius are unobtainable, we measure and compare the time taken as a qualitative comparison as long as control variables are well fixed. Result: Time taken\Oil age t=0 t=5 mins t=10 mins t=15 mins t=20 mins Trial 1 14.2 15.4 16.3 18.1 19.6 Trial 2 14.5 15.3 16.1 18.2 19.8 Trial 3 14.3 15.6 16.3 18.2 20.1 Two sample t-test is used to test significance between t=0 group and t=20 mins group Group\Quantity p-value t-statisitcs stan...
