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

What is freedom? Many people‚ both pro-gun and pro-gun control‚ talk about freedom. But nobody ever really stops to define what it is‚ and then apply it to the gun debate. This leads to mischaracterizations‚ particularly from the pro-gun side‚ that any attempt to implement gun control policies is an infringement on freedom. The ultimate end of this argument is to paint those in favor of gun control as "tyrants‚" or bring up the name of Hitler in an attempt to tar those on the other side. In this

Forces Have you ever wondered how forces link to our life? Everything we’ve learned in science has got me thinking about it. Forces are an essential part of our daily lives. Forces act on all objects. And we need force for everything we do‚ whether it’s a push‚ pull or twist. Force gives an object the energy to move‚ stop moving or change direction. Newton’s first law states that an objects velocity cannot change unless it is acted upon by a force. Here are examples of force in everyday life.

motionless on your tray. Are there forces acting on the cup? If so‚ how do they differ from the forces that would be acting on the cup if it sat on your kitchen table at home? Determine the Concept Yes‚ there are forces acting on it. They are the normal force of the table and the gravitational pull of Earth (weight). Because the cup is not accelerating relative to the ground‚ the forces are the same as those that would act on it if it was sitting on your table at home. 2 • You are passing another car on

The Use of Force The Wichita Police Department’s policy and procedures on the use of force for its employees takes every measure of precautionary to ensure that the best method of force is used in making a lawful arrest.
