History
In 1997, the first version of the Virtual Laboratory was presented, titled Virtual Laboratory of Physiology. At this time, the main focus lay on the development of technological preconditions of physiological research in the 19th century. Therefore, a database with relevant texts and images was created. In 1998, the concept still used today was created after a series of modifications, followed by the publication of a cd-rom in 1999. At this time, the focus had been expanded from physiology to the life sciences in general, as well as the arts and literature. As the project had been extended from a sole database to a platform for historiographical research, it was presented at the conference Using the World Wide Web for Historical Research in Science and Technology organized by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation at Stanford University. In 2000, the project was incorporated into the research project The Experimentalization of Life, funded by the Volkswagen Foundation. This was followed by another presentation at the conference Virtual Research? The impact of new technologies on scientific practices at the ETH Zurich. In 2002, the first version of the Virtual Laboratory went online. Since 2008, the Virtual Laboratory is listed as a journal under the ISSN number 1866-4784.

Error in a Virtual Laboratory?
Hello, I am doing a laboratory
for school. This lab is online
(virtual) and I just have a
few questions.
The lab that I was asked to do
was on simple harmonic motion
using a pendulum (like a
clock).
This is the lab (to give you a
better idea):
http://monet.physik.unibas.ch/
~elmer/pendulum/upend.htm
Anyway, I had finished it and
I am now doing my conclusion
questions and here is the
question: "What might account
for error in this experiment?"
Before this, my teacher had me
do relative and absolute error
for free-fall acceleration
(9.81m/s^2). All of my answers
were slightly off (mostly
around 11.5 m/s^2). So, the
conclusion question is
pertaining to free-fall
acceleration. Why would my
answers be off in a virtual
laboratory?
Thank you everyone :o)

Just suppose you did something like time 10 pendulum cycles, but you counted "1" when you pushed Run and stopped when the count reached 10. Then you actually timed only 9 cycles, and if you use the equation g = (2pi)^2L/T^2) you come out with g = 12.1 m/s^2. Could it have been something like that? |

What is the effective weight I used Virtual Laboratory:
Bridge Designer to resolve the
forces on a truss form of
bridge but what do I do if
there is no support, stays or
trusses, just a beam? Am I
making any sense? I have
forgotten everything I ever
learnt in physics and
engineering at school!

Effective weight of 100kg man will be support reactions at the span ends which is single span.So it be 50kg at both ends of the span. |
