AP Physics C - Homework Two Dimensional Motion 1. A particle moves along the parabola with equation Y = ½x2 shown below. a. Suppose the particle moves so that the x-component of its velocity has the constant value vx = C; that is‚ x = Ct i. On the diagram above‚ indicate the directions of the particle’s velocity vector v and acceleration vector a at point R‚ and label each vector. ii. Determine the y-component of the particle’s velocity as a function of x. iii. Determine

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

Lab 4 Projectile Motion Sai Moua Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to define what the initial velocity of the ball when it is launched out of the pipe. Our next objective is to determine at what angle that the ball will be ejected at the maximum range. Lastly‚ we predict and confirm the range before we launch the ball at a certain angle. Theory: Projectile motion according to Dr. James S. Walker is defined as‚ “the motion of objects that are initially launched –or “projected”- and that

NEWTON’S SECOND LAW OF MOTION Abstract This study’s objectives are first to verify the direct proportionality of acceleration and net force if the mass of the body is constant and then to verify the inverse proportionality of acceleration and mass if the net force is constant. With the use of‚ mainly‚ the dynamics cart and the weight hanger‚ certain variables such as the mass on the cart and the mass on the hanger which is the net force were manipulated‚ controlled or changed in order to illustrate

To start the experiment‚ weigh the mass of the cart with the picket fence and record the mass on an excel worksheet. The combined weight of the cart and the picket fence will be referred to as M. After weighing the cart with the picket fence‚ assemble the dynamic track by installing the photogate at an appropriate position. Additionally‚ install the pulley at the applicable end of the dynamic track. Next‚ hook up the inextensible string to the end of the cart. The attached string should be facing

the science lab. In science‚ we would participate in a lab. One of my favorite labs was the owl pellet dissection. Owl pellets are owl throw up. In owl pellets you can find the bones of animals the owl consumed. In this lab we were to take out the bones we found in the pellet and construct the animal we found inside. Most people‚ like me‚ had a sort of rodent‚ but some people found birds in their pellet. Another one of my favorite things we did in science was the Sharpie tie dye lab in fifth grade

Work Investigation Purpose: In this lab‚ you will work with a partner to investigate the force required to do work on an aluminum plate as you pull it at different angles. Materials: 1 aluminum plate String 1 kg mass (you might need to use two 500-gram masses) 1 spring scale Prediction: Before you begin‚ sketch a graph that shows your prediction of the relationship between the force and the angle you pull it at. In other words‚ what patter do you think the graph will demonstrate? Procedure:

How much is it? How does reaction time change with practice? THEORETICAL The reaction time is the amount of time required to sense astimulus‚ analyze its meaning‚ and respond. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Velocity is speed with direction

During an experiment‚ there was a glass eye dropper placed into a bottle filled to the brim with water with the cap closed. The glass eye dropper floated in the bottle when the bottle was left alone. When the bottle was squeezed‚ however‚ the glass dropper sunk to the bottom. When the pressure was released from the bottle‚ the dropper floated back to the top of the bottle. The dropper floated at the top of the bottle when no pressure was applied‚ because the air inside the dropper was less dense

Proving the Principles of Force I. Purpose: The purpose of this lab is best understood by the statement of that the net force is described as having a direct proportional relationship to acceleration while having an inverse relation to mass‚ this lab is performed to study the roles of these two variables in the real world and see firsthand how they play a role in net force as well as to test the following hypothesis. II. Hypothesis: If an Atwood machine is used to calculate acceleration on a pulley
