    equilibrium of forces was investigated through the use of different weights attached to cords which were connected to a central ring‚ while pulleys supported them. This assembly facilitated the force band system to demonstrate that equilibrium will be attaining regardless of disturbances. However‚ due to errors in the experiment‚ the sum of the x and y component did equate to zero as predicted. The graphical solution of the experiment yield a polygon that is completed indicating that all the forces are in

    = 300g 9.8 3. Explain the effect of mass on Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s Law states that the restoring force of a spring is directly proportional to a small displacement. Applying a mass to the end of the spring stretches it‚ changing the length from its original equilibrium position of rest‚ to a new (lower) equilibrium position. At this position‚ the vertical restoring force of the spring balances the weight and the downward pull of gravity is balanced by the upward pull of the spring

    Abstract: The previous lab explored the effect of gravity on free fall. It was determined that acceleration is always constant under free fall. However‚ in this lab‚ acceleration was observed under different forces‚ other than just gravity. Therefore‚ depending on how strong the forces being exerted were‚ acceleration differed. It wasn’t constant anymore. Using a glider on a air track and a pulley‚ different masses were attached at the end of the string and the glider was allowed to move on the
