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

Sir Isaac Newton I am Sir Isaac Newton. I am a mathematician and physicist‚ and one of the foremost scientific intellects of all time. I was born at Woolsthorpe‚ near Grantham in Lincolnshire‚ in 1642. I entered Cambridge University in 1661; then was elected at Fellow of Trinity College in 1667‚ then Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in 1669. I remained at the university‚ lecturing in most years‚ until 1696. Of these Cambridge years‚ in which I was at the height of my creative power‚ I singled out

Isaac Newton should not be thrown in jail because he made true discoveries. But instead he should be free so he can share his discoveries with the world. He discovered the 3 laws of motion‚gravity‚and the color spectrum.When he experimented with light he didn’t put his face in a book he experimented to be able to prove his theory. Here are some of the discoveries that has made.Three of his discoveries that I will be discussing will be the color spectrum‚gravity‚and the three laws of motion.He

Experiment 3.1 Newton’s Second Law of Motion Aim: To investigate the relationship between net force‚ mass and acceleration Hypothesis: Since Newton’s second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the total force acting upon that object‚ we can assume that the more mass being pulled down on the cart the greater the acceleration of it will be and therefore the greater its net force will be. Apparatus: Wheeled carts Pulleys Balance

We need to question everything. Questioning ideas and things we know as fact is how we learn and progress. Galileo Galilei‚ Johannes Kepler‚ and Isaac Newton understood this. Science had some answers for things‚ however since they questioned those things they were able to get to truth. Galileo was born in 1564. He was a professor of mathematics. It is a common misconception that Galileo invented the telescope. However‚ that is not true. Galileo was the first person to look at the sky through a telescope

SIR ISAAC NEWTON; ORAL REPORT. I just planned on saying something like ‘Our report is on Sir Isaac Newton’. In 1643 he was born to a man who didn’t want him so his mother was supposed to take care of him but‚ she wanted to raise a second family with a new husband so she took him to live with his grandparents. He lived there until 1653 when his mother returned. By then he was ten years of age and had already been denied plenty of attention from his mother possibly explaining his complex character

Chairman of the Federal Communications Committee Newton Minow gave his speech “Vast Wasteland” that drives the point of discussion with an insistent fervor‚ accentuating the need for the people to guide the direction of television programming to support the business‚ allowing it to not only survive‚ but strive. This claim is buttressed by initially establishing his credibility to help express his desire to protect the public‚ while also working to persuade the audience by sprouting claims that would

Many people believe that Isaac Newton left the biggest impact on the history of science. He is most known for developing the laws of gravity and his work in formulating Calculus with Gottfried Leibniz . Calculus is taught in schools all around the world today so are his laws of gravity‚ These notions were published along with many others in Isaac’s “Principia Mathematica” publishing this book went on to prove Kepler’s heliocentric view of the solar system. Many systems of mathematics in the book

DYNAMICS -studies the relationship of motion to the forces that causes it. Types of Forces: (a) Normal Force‚ n :When an object rests or pushes on a surface‚ the surface exerts a push on it that is directed perpendicular to the surface. (b) Friction Force‚ f : In addition to the normal force‚ a surface may exert a frictional force on a object‚ directed parallel to the surface and opposite the motion or impending motion of the object. f s = µ s n - static friction‚ maximum friction before the object
