Sir Isaac Newton was an English mathematician and physicist. He was considered one of the greatest scientists in history. Newton was also the culminating figure in the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Newton was best known for his discovery that the force called gravity affects all objects in space and on earth. .Isaac Newton was born on December 25‚ 1642‚ in the hamlet of Wollsthorpe‚ Lincolnshire (R.S.W. 17) His Father died only three months before he was born (Sir Isaac Newton 1).

Uniform Circular Motion PES 115 Report Objective The purpose of this experiment is to determine the relationships between radiuses‚ mass‚ velocity and centripetal force of a spinning body. We used logger pro to accurately measure the orbital period of the spinning mass and used these measurements to determine the interrelated interactions of the specified properties and viewed the results graphically. Data and Calculations The black markings on the string are about 10 cm apart in length‚ measured

The first law of thermodynamics states that a certain energy balance will hold when a system undergoes a change of state or a thermodynamic process. But it does not indicate whether that change of state or the process is at all feasible or not. It is the second law of thermodynamics which provides the criterion as to the probability of various processes through the statements of Clausius that ‘’Heat does not pass from a body at low temperature to one at high temperature without an accompanying change

In the second part of the experiment‚ we determined that varying the materials between two sliding surfaces changesthe coefficient of kinetic friction between them. Finally‚ in both parts‚ we showed that friction depends on the normal force. OBJECTIVES 1. To determine the coefficient of friction μ between contact surfaces as one body moves uniform motion. 2. To establish the relationship between angle of repose ∅ and μ

Bernoulli’s Principle and Newton’s Laws of Motion Embry-Riddle University Bernoulli’s Principle and Newton’s Laws of Motion Bernoulli’s Principle In fluid dynamics‚ Bernoulli’s principles states that an increase in the speed of the fluid corresponds to a decrease in pressure of the same fluid. Similarly‚ the decrease in pressure corresponds to a loss in the potential energy of the fluid. The principle is applicable to various types of fluids‚ which leads to Bernoulli’s

We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whether the surface area of the block or the type of surface effects friction. We found that the surface area of the block did not change

It transforms linear motion to circular motion or vice versa. A crank is an arm attached at right angles to a rotating shaft by which reciprocating motion is imparted to or received from the shaft. It is used to convert circular motion into reciprocating motion‚ or vice-versa. The arm may be a bent portion of the shaft‚ or

This experimental value for gravity agrees well with and is within one standard deviation of the accepted value for this location. I. INTRODUCTION The study of the motion of the simple pendulum provided valuable insights into the gravitational force acting on the students at the University of Utah. The experiment was of value since the gravitational force is one all people continuously experience and the collection
