The measure- ment of diameter is generally carried out by a comparison method or direct method using 1D linear measuring system. The probes touch both sides of the workpiece and the diameter is determined from displacement of the probes. The contact force is generally operated at 1N which yield defor- mation due to force of approximately 1 µm with uncertainty of ±0.1 µm. This system provides good performance but has a limitation when workpiece is made from soft matter or sensitive to scratch. National Institute of Metrology (Thailand) developed a laser interferometer system which is equipped with reference spherical lens in order to non-contact radius measurement of spherical objects pos- sible. Radius of completed sphere and partial sphere with radius range from 1 mm up to 50 mm can be measured with accuracy of ±2 µm.

The attention is paid on the paradoxical phe- nomenon of the reflection of a particle that is in contrast between classical and quantum physics. Classically, the reflection effect occurs only at a potential barrier. To demonstrate such counterintuitive phenomenon, the Schro¨dinger equation is solved to obtain the reflection coefficient in the scattering state by considering an incident particle withan energy E > 0; that is represented by a monochromatic plane wave, propagates freely from left to right, pass through the potential well. The continuity conditions at boundaries give the desired result that is expressed in terms of the Airy functions which depends on the incident energy E; the strength jV0j and the range L of the well. The value of the reflection coefficient R lies in the interval 0 ≤ R < 1; and its behavior is the decreasing function with respect to the range L: Primary authors: Mr CHAMNAN, Noppasin (Burapha University); Dr KRUNAVAKARN, Boonlit (Burapha Univesity) Presenters: Mr CHAMNAN, Noppasin (Burapha University); Dr KRUNAVAKARN, Boonlit (Burapha Univesity) Session Classification: Poster Presentation I Track Classification: Physics Education October 2, 2021 Page 2 Siam Physics Co … / Report of Contributions Simple Harmonics Motion experim … Contribution ID: 6 Type: Poster Simple Harmonics Motion experiment based on LabVIEW interface with Arduino Wednesday, 24 May 2017 15:45 (15 minutes) In this work, we developed an innovative physics lab apparatus that is modern, cheap and simple. The ultrasonic sensor was used to measure the position of a mass attached on a spring asafunc- tion of time. The data acquisition system and control device were developed based on LabVIEW interface with Arduino. The experimental was designed to explain the simple harmonics motion similar to the wave propagation. The simple harmonic system (mass and spring) was observed and the motion can be realized using curve fitting to the wave equation in Mathematica. We found that the spring constants provided by Hook’s law and the wave equation fitting are in good agreement.

In one dimensional two-body collisions experiment, we used the Arduino UNO R3 as a data acqui- sition system which was controlled by LabVIEW program. The photo gate sensors were designed using LED and LDR to measure position as a function of the time. Aluminum frame housewares and blower were used for the air track system. In both totally inelastic and elastic collision ex- periments, the results of momentum and energy conservation are in good agreement with the theoretical calculations.

Our method provides a compact and portable spectrometer according to the characteristic of the Talbot effect. Here, we propose the idea with the simulations done with reasonable values. With vibration and temperature adjustments, the high resolution over a range of a few nanometers can be obtained.

The particle-pore hydrodynamic interaction causes an increase in the drag force exerted on the particle, resulting in the reduction of its diffusivity. If the particle is charged and submerged in an electrolytic solution, the particle motion creates a distortion of the electrical double layer, resulting in an excess retarding force added to the usual enhanced hydrodynamic drag. This is commonly known as the relaxation effect. In the present work, the excess force due to relaxation was evaluated from the finite element solution of the governing equations including Stokes equa- tion, Poisson’s equation and Nernst-Planck equations. The regular perturbation scheme involving the Peclet number was employed, considering the particle translocation as a perturbation on equi- librium state. The enhanced drag due to relaxation and the particle diffusivity are obtained for spherical particles confined in cylindrical pores where the particle and pore wall are of like charge and the electric potential of the system is high enough that the Poisson-Boltzmann could not be linearized. The obtained results are compared to effects of relaxation on drag force and diffusivity of macromolecules calculated by employing the perturbation involving the dimensionless surface charge density.

  • ANNEX 1: Climate Risk Profile for Thailand and Project Target Areas
    PIMS 3771 THAILAND SCCF Project - Annexes ANNEX 1: Climate Risk Profile for Thailand and Project Target Areas Location &Climate of Thailand Thailand is located between 5°40’ and 20°30’ N latitudes and 97°20’ and 105°45’ E longitudes in South East Asia. The country borders Myanmar to the north and west, Laos to the northeast, Cambodia to the east and Malaysia to the south. Thailand can be divided into four major natural geographic regions: the mountainous north the arid northeast, comprised mainly by the Korat Plateau the fertile central plains, which include the Chao Phraya River Basin, and the southern peninsula. Thailand’s 2,600 km coastline runs mainly along the Gulf of Thailand (1,660km), with a shorter stretch of coast along the Andaman Sea (950km) on the western side of the southern peninsula. The Gulf of Thailand is relatively shallow and has an area of 30,400km², while the Andaman Sea is much larger and deeper. There are altogether 23 provinces (including Bangkok) along the two coasts, with most bordering the Gulf of Thailand, a few along the Andaman Sea, and a few with borders along both coasts. The proposed project focuses on Thailand’s narrow southern peninsula, which is flanked by the Gulf of Thailand to the east, the Andaman Sea to the west and Malaysia to the south. Thailand’s climate is classified as tropical savannah in the ‘mainland’ and tropical monsoon in the southern peninsula, which experiences a slightly different climate because of its geography and its close proximity to the sea. Across the country there are three main seasons; hot, wet and mild.

FAQs 39 ​ 2 Introduction Physics is, simultaneously, a doorway to some of the most beautiful and profound phenomena in the universe, e.g. black holes, supernovae, Bose-Einstein condensates, superconductors; a driver of lifestyle-changing technology, e.g. engines, electricity, and transistors; and a powerful way of perceiving and analysing problems that can be applied in various domains, both within and outside standard physics. The beauty and profundity of the phenomena studied by physicists offer romance and excite passion, and the utility of its discoveries and the power of its methods arouse interest. These methods can be very intricate and demanding: theoretical physics requires a skilful combination of physical and mathematical thinking, and experimental physics requires in addition the ability to turn tentative ideas into physical devices that can put those ideas to the test. As a result, the successful practice of physics demands rigour, flexibility, mechanical adroitness, persistence, and great imagination. The physicist’s imagination is nourished not just by physics but also by other areas of human enquiry and thought, of the kind that an Ashoka undergraduate is expected to encounter.

  • Acceleration
    Team:___________________ _______________ Acceleration Part I. Uniformly Accelerated Motion: Kinematics & Geometry Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with respect to time: a ≡ dv/dt. In this experiment, you will study a very important class of motion called uniformly-accelerated motion. Uniform acceleration means that the acceleration is constant − independent of time − and thus the velocity changes at a constant rate. The motion of an object (near the earth’s surface) due to gravity is the classic example of uniformly accelerated motion. If you drop any object, then its velocity will increase by the same amount (9.8 m/s) during each one-second interval of time. Galileo figured out the physics of uniformly-accelerated motion by studying the motion of a bronze ball rolling down a wooden ramp. You will study the motion of a glider coasting down a tilted air track. You will discover the deep connection between kinematic concepts (position, velocity, acceleration) and geometric concepts (curvature, slope, area). A. The Big Four: t , x , v , a The subject of kinematics is concerned with the description of how matter moves through space and time . The four quantities, time t, position x, velocity v, and acceleration a, are the basic descriptors of any kind of motion of a particle moving in one spatial dimension. They are the “stars of the kinema”. The variables describing space (x) and time (t) are the fundamental kinematic entities. The other two (v and a) are derived from these spatial and temporal properties via the relations v ≡ dx/dt and a ≡ dv/dt.
