    Revised The Balance Beam. “Of all the playing surfaces in sports, none is more unforgiving than the balance beam,” stated Tim Bannon in his Chicago Tribune article. For comparison, football players’ playing surface is 160 feet wide, Olympic swimmers are provided with 8.2 feet in their lane, and NBA basketball players have 44 feet to work with. We gymnasts have a whopping 3.937 inches to flip on. Although the cushioned, ten centimeter aluminum tube that makes up the balance beam today (iSport;

    day I learned I would not be a champion in gymnastics, but especially not on the balance beam. When I was 4 I thought I was quite the gymnast. So, I took lessons at Gym corner in Washington. Well, I saw my sister do a cartwheel on the beam, so I had to be just as good as her and do one also. So I did one of those I-am-better-than-her-and-I-am-the-best-at-everything-kind-of-struts to the beam. So I get up on that beam thinking I am Gabby Douglas, and try to do a cartwheel. I thought for sure mine

    (The curtain rises, revealing an average-size teenage bedroom. Academic rewards are scattered across the pale pink walls, the floor unusually immaculate for an adolescent's bedroom. A bookshelf stacked with classic novels stands between the door and a closet; a closet holding an abundance of cardboard boxes filled with clothes and school supplies. NICHOLE slowly paces around the room with her eyes glued to a clipboard while ALLISON sits attentively watching her. After a moment, NICHOLE pauses and

    measured in an attempt to confirm Hooke’s law and the Euler-Bernoulli bending beam theory. In addition, the measured data allows us to calculate the modulus of elasticity (Young’s Modulus) or E of the cantilever beam. Through the course of the experiment our observations revealed that the addition of weights deformed the beam in response to the applied stress. This deformation can be modeled using the Euler-Bernoulli beam bending theory. Our experimentation and calculations revealed that our data did

    Solids | | Adam McCreevey | 3/15/2013 | This is a laboratory to learn how to make measurements using a strain gauge by using different configurations, also to determine experimentally the axial and transverse stress at the surface of the beam and compare them to theoretical calculations | Introduction If a length of wire is subject to a stress within its elastic limits, the resulting elongation and change of diameter alters the resistance. The resulting principle is used in the resistance
