Cart on an Incline Lab Kennedy Van Allen SPH 4U1 February 20‚ 2014 M. Reid Purpose: To determine both qualitative and quantitative properties of the motion of a cart on an inclined plane on position vs. time‚ velocity vs. time and acceleration vs. time graphs. Question: Which properties of the cart’s motion can be determined from examining each of the three graphs? Hypothesis: The predictions on the type of motion demonstrated by the cart-qualitatively- are shown below.

How is Acceleration Affected by Mass and Gravity? Introduction How does force and mass affect acceleration? Newton’s second law states that the acceleration of an object depends on the net force acting on the object and the mass of the object. If more mass is applied to the car‚ then the acceleration will be slower. If there is less mass on the car‚ then the acceleration will be faster. If more force is applied to the car‚ then it will accelerate faster. If less force is used the car‚ then the

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

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

Objective: Motion on an Incline with Friction The purpose of this experiment is to prove that the experimental acceleration value calculated is close to the theoretical acceleration values by finding the tension force‚ normal force‚ kinetic friction and the coefficient of kinetic force from the data collected. Theory: The forces acted on an object can be divided up into many different components depending on what the object is doing. In this experiment‚ an object is sliding up an incline plane resulting

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

Determining g on an Incline Lab #1 Theory: During the early part of the seventeenth century‚ Galileo experimentally examined the concept of acceleration. One of his goals was to measure the acceleration due to gravity‚ or the acceleration of freely falling objects. Unfortunately‚ his timing devices were not precise enough to measure the free fall time directly. He decided to “dilute” gravity by using fluids‚ inclined planes‚ and pendulums. Galileo’s idea of diluting gravity using inclined planes

Finding the Acceleration of a Ball Problem Statement: How does the height of a ramp that is comprised of two parallel rulers affect the speed of a steel ball bearing rolling down it? Hypothesis: If the steepness of the ramp based on the amount of books propping it up are increased‚ then the steel ball bearings’ speed will increase. Materials: 2 wooden meter sticks 1 steel ball bearing 5 workbooks A roll of masking tape A stopwatch A smooth‚ long surface (preferably a table) Procedures: Arrange

DESCRIPTION The Centripetal Acceleration lab consists of using a pendulum bob swinging continuously. This will help see the F_max(tension) and F_(mean )(weight of the pendulum)‚ net force (N) and v_mean(velocity). RESULTS When starting the lab the first thing to do is to measure the cylinder properties (the bob) in table one. The measurements were: diameter (D) is .0815m‚ height (H) is .025 m‚ mass is .06591 kg‚ and the 〖Weight〗_theory W is .645918 Mg‚N. Second thing to do is to launch from
