New day, new experiences

The day started with a workout, almost. We visited the local gym at Norrängsgården, talked nicely to the staff and got free access to the training devices by telling them that we would like to borrow a couple of dumb-bells for doing an experiment. We lifted the weights  in different kinds of ways and measured the time, and by doing this we tried to calculate how much a human power is. It was close to the expected, about 7,5 kg, 1 meter in one second, but our results was a little higher, we manage to lift about 10 kg. 

We tried to solve the chemistry questions which had been mailed to us, but it did not go very well on the last questions. We are hoping to get some hints tomorrow on how one is supposed to think when working out enthalpy changes by using enthalpy cycles. 

A second way to work out human power appeared to us today. We are going to take a small basket with wheels from a supermarket nearby which we found today, fill it with weights and run around with it to see how much weights we can drag during a period of time. If you see some girls running around outside the school building with a green basket after them, it's probably just us.
