    Lab Conclusion When comparing the average speed results from part two of the lab and the definition of acceleration‚ you find similarities between the two. First‚ average speed is distance divided by time‚ and we use it to describe the motion of an object moving at changing speeds. We can see this from our lab results from the average speed of the marble traveling down the ramp‚ because it picks up speed. When the marble is released at the top of the ramp‚ the ball doesn’t have the same momentum

    Physics 211 Experiment 1: Free Fall - Determining the acceleration of gravity Prior to Lab: Derive the numbered equations (Equations 1‚ 2 and 3) in the lab instructions using the definitions of velocity and acceleration (a=dv/dt and v=dy/dt). Object: The object of this experiment is to determine the value of the acceleration of gravity by measuring the rate of acceleration of a freely falling object. In addition‚ one will be able to compare theory with experiment for constantly accelerated

    Abstract: In this investigation‚ a mass was attached to a string and was swung horizontally for certain number of rotations (ten). The sole goal for this investigation was to find and verify the relationships between Centripetal Force‚ Frequency and Radius of circular path. In order to get relationships between the variables mentioned above‚ this experiment was divided into two parts. In Experiment A‚ the radius of the path (length of the string)‚ along with the mass was kept constant‚ and the relation

    Acceleration from Gravity on an Incline I. Introduction: Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of a moving body. Galileo was the first person to actually experiment and examine the concept of acceleration back in the seventeenth century. Acceleration can be determined by calculating the gravity and an incline. An incline is slope that is deviated between horizontal and vertical positions. Gravity is the natural force of attraction towards the center of the earth. Because of this

    Gravity is the force that keeps objects close to the earth Not only does gravity keep objects close to the earth it also keeps the solar system revolving the sun Gravity was discovered by Isaac Newton Acceleration of objects that is due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s Also‚ according to Mr. Newton’s First Law‚ once the egg was moving‚ it didn’t want to stop. The container of water interrupted the egg’s fall‚ providing a safe place for the egg to stop moving so you could recover it unbroken

    the acceleration due to gravity (or g) is approximately 9.8m/s2 [down] or -9.8m/s2 [up]. What we are trying to do is design an experiment to measure and confirm this value. Our plan was to drop an object from a reasonable height and use a ticker tape timer to measure the amount of time and distance travelled between each time. The weight of the object used would have to be heavy enough that it would not be affected by air resistance. For example‚ you shouldn’t use a piece of paper because due to
