INTRODUCTION: Space‚ Time and motion were three interrelated concepts which have been very difficult by the philosophers to arrive at a proper understanding since the ancient times. By there has been consensus that a proper understanding of motion would lend a hand in addressing the questions on the nature of the other two concepts namely space and time. Depending on the nature of approach to the problem of space and time‚ the philosophers mainly addressed three key concerns. They are as follows:

If the Earth actually spun on an axis (as required in a heliocentric system to explain the diurnal motion of the sky)‚ why didn’t objects fly off the spinning Earth? 2. If the Earth was in motion around the sun‚ why didn’t it leave behind the birds flying in the air? 3. If the Earth were actually on an orbit around the sun‚ why wasn’t a parallax effect observed? That is‚ as illustrated in the adjacent

identified. I also have referred to explosions as divisions. Is this appropriate? Newton’s First Law of Motion: A body will remain at rest or moving with constant velocity unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Example: • Q: while traveling in train if one throws a ball up it lands on his palm though the train is moving. my doubt is that though the ball is detached from motion how does it manage to land on his palm though he is moving along with the train? • A: he ball

Matthew Mannetta Simple Harmonic Motion Lab Report Introduction Simple harmonic motion is the motion of a mass on a spring when it is subject to the linear elastic restoring force given by Hooke’s Law. In this lab‚ we will observe simple harmonic motion by studying masses on springs. In the first part of this lab‚ you will determine the period‚ T‚ of the spring by observing one sliding mass that is attached to two springs with the spring constant k‚ and attached to a hanging mass by a string

top of the cup‚ the shorter the distance of the cup moved and it included all of the three Newton’s laws. My hypothesis actually turned out to be accurate. It’s really fascinating that how only 1 experiment can prove all of Newton’s three laws of motion just like that. When the marble was getting released from the ramp I observed it hitting the cup and surprisingly the cup didn’t fall off or changed directions it went in a straight path. For 1 penny we got the longest distance such as 4cm for trail

How does the mass of a ball affect the distance it will travel ? Exploring Newtons 2nd Law of motion. Background Research How does changing the mass of an object effect how far it will travel ? This question can be answered by Newtons 2nd law of motion; Force equals mass multiplied acceleration (F= ma). This law states that a force on an object will cause it to accelerate in the direction of the force. The greater the force exerted on the object‚ the greater the acceleration. But how does

The Shot Heard ‘Round the World (War I) On summer day‚ June 28th‚ 1914‚ Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary was riding in a car‚ driving through Sarajevo‚ trying to show himself to the Serbian people. A terrorist group had created plans to assassinate Ferdinand and at first they failed. However‚ Ferdinand coincidentally ended up right next to the sandwich shop that Gavrilo Princip‚ one of the designated assassins‚ was eating at. Princip was quick to grasp the opportunity and he

Provide a possible explanation of phenomenon you observed based on the result of your experiment. When food color is added to milk‚ it floats because it is less dense than milk. The non-polar fat in the milk prevents the food color from spreading‚ as it cannot participate in hydrogen bonding with water. When detergent is added to milk and the food color‚ the
