Projectile Motion You have probably watched a ball roll off a table and strike the floor. What determines where it will land? Could you predict where it will land? In this experiment‚ you will roll a ball down a ramp and determine the ball’s velocity with a pair of Photogates. You will use this information and your knowledge of physics to predict where the ball will land when it hits the floor.

Kyle Brooks 11/13/12 Angry Birds Projectile Motion Lab How to Perfect Distances Of Birds using Launching Angles Purpose: The Purpose of this Lab is to discover which launch angles give the birds the longest and shortest time in flight. Hypothesis: I believe that the bird will launch the farthest at the 45 degree angle because that’s exactly half of 90 degrees which will give it the maximum height in comparison to length. I also think that the bird will launch the shortest at 0 degrees

determine a value for the spring’s force constant‚ k. Introduction: Hooke’s Law indicates the relationship between the amount of extension‚ e‚ of a spring to the size of the force‚ F‚ acing on it. This relationship may be written as :- F = ke F = ke where k is a constant for which particular spring you are using. It is the force constant of the spring. * The force applying on the spring‚ F‚ is denoted by Newton in SI Units. (N) * The amount of extension of the spring‚ e‚ is denoted

Reflective Writing 6 In the textbook it states Newton’s third law as how two objects interact with each other. For example when you take a seat on a chair you are pushing down on the chair while the chair is pushing back up on you which is also known as the normal force. With this interaction between two objects there will be an action and reaction pair of forces. For example force A acts on B and force B acts on A. These exist as a pair or not at all. The name is also misleading because you cannot

Charles’s Law – Lab Report Charles’ Law: Assuming that pressure remains constant‚ the volume and absolute temperature of a certain quantity of a gas are directly proportional. Mathematically‚ this can be represented as: Temperature = Constant x Volume or Volume = Constant x Temperature or Volume/Temperature = Constant Substituting in variables‚ the formula is: V/T=K Because the formula is equal to a constant‚ it is possible to solve for a change in volume or temperature using a proportion

Experiment 1.7: Graphical Analysis of Motion Introduction To graphically analyze motion‚ two graphs are commonly used: Displacement vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time. These two graphs provide significant information about motion including distance/displacement‚ speed/velocity‚ and acceleration. The displacement and acceleration of a moving body can be obtained from its Velocity vs. Time graph by respectively finding the area and the slope of the graph. Data Tables – Part I Displacement

Purpose/ Hypothesis: The purpose of the lab is to explore some of the variables that influence projectile motion using a Rubber Band Cannon and launching rubber bands and measuring its horizontal distance and angle at which the rubber bands has been launched.. Materials: Materials used for the lab were a Cardboard Box‚ a 30cm ruler‚ rubber bands‚ a measuring tape‚ tape‚ a pencil‚ a paper protractor cut out‚ and scissors. Procedure: For the lab‚ scissors were used to cut the paper protractor cutout

Projectile Motion PHYS111 Formal Report 2 University of Canterbury Campbell Moulder Abstract The force of gravity is said to be a constant of 9.81 ms-2 (3). This can be proved by measuring the projectile motion of a bouncy ball and plotting a ∆Vertical Velocity vs. Time graph‚ the gradient of which should equal the constant force (acceleration due to) of gravity. Our gradient value of 10.26±0.49 ms-2 is consistent with the actual value of 9.81 ms-2. Introduction A projectile is an

really see is how science is related to any sport. The use of these science laws plays a big part in the way sports are played. Newtown’s laws of motion and the laws of thermodynamics set great examples in a tennis match to help us gain more knowledge in how they’re being used on earth. Newtown’s first law of motion is when force is being applied. If an object is left by itself it won’t move or change its state of motion. Unless the object is moved‚ pushed or pulled‚ it will change its state; it

Finding the rate law was the overall goal of the laboratory. When finding the wavelength of the Azo Orange II dye‚ the highest wave was the point used‚ 483nm. The plotted points of the different concentrations absorbance’s made sense to have a steady upward slope because the dye was diluted in steady increments from full to ¾ and so on. Beer’s law was used next to calculate the absorbance of they time over time as bleach was added. One the absorbance value was calculated‚ the concentrations were
