Physics Investigation: What factors affect the period of a pendulum? By Tanya Waqanika In this investigation‚ I will be looking at which factors affect the period (The time for one complete cycle‚ a left swing and a right swing) of a pendulum (a weight that dangles from a pivot so that it can swing freely). I will do this by tying a metal bob to a length of spring and dropping it from a certain height and measuring the time it takes to complete an oscillation‚ changing a variable for each of

of the many questions people wonder is‚ why gravity differs on different planets and moons. In order to understand the answer of this question‚ one must know what gravity is. Gravity is the force of nature that attracts one body towards the center of the Earth‚ or any other physical body that has any kind of mass. Gravity is also in charge of the interactions that occur between particles and collections of matter‚ like the stars and the planets. Gravity depends on two different things‚ the masses

Abstract In this experiment Newton’s Second Law of Motion was measured with the use of the gravitational acceleration g on Earth by applying a free fall process. Objective The objective of this experiment is to validate Newton’s Second Law of motion. In experimenting the Law the measurement of acceleration of gravity was used by measuring the distance a dropped ball travels for a specific amount of time. Procedure First‚ measurements were taken of the distance from the stairway

Gravity separation is often said that the re-election‚ it is the relative density‚ particle size‚ shape differences between be separation of mineral particles and their media (water‚ air or other relatively high density liquid) movement in the rate and direction different‚ so that the mutual separation of mineral processing methods.

In life people are filled with different decisions. Decisions are part of our everyday life‚ from what we eat‚ to what we wear‚ or to our next big changing experience. But somehow in one-way or another‚ someone or something influences every decision. There are many factors in why we get influenced by certain people‚ it maybe because we like them‚ known them for a while‚ because we know their knowledge in certain things or so on. It all depends in our surrounding. For example‚ in the first scenario

Foucault’s Pendulum In 1851‚ a French physicist named Jean-Bernard-Leon Foucault suspended an iron ball with a radius of approximately 0.5 feet from the ceiling of the Pantheon in Paris with a wire that was over 200 feet long. The ball was used as a pendulum‚ and it could swing more than 12 feet back and forth. Beneath the ball he placed a circular ring with sand on top of it. Attached to the bottom of the ball was a pin‚ which scraped away the sand in its path each time the ball went by. To get

Design Lab Report Introduction: This lab is looking at the conservation of energy in moving objects. Research question: How do the height and kinetic energy of an object affect the diameter of its crater when it hits sand? Theory: The theory being looked at here is the transfer of gravitational potential energy (GPE) to kinetic energy (KE). At a point of drop of an object‚ the potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy of the object just before it impacts the floor: GPEPosition of drop
