Edgar Xiong David Blackburn Period 3 Physics of Flight One may wonder‚ what is flight? Many just stare up into the blue skies above and assume. while others devote their lives to discovering and finding a passion in aviation. Flight can be simply characterized as the [powered] gliding of an object through the air‚ but the wonders of soaring through the air does not simply stop there‚ instead‚ flight is a whole myriad of forces acting on each other‚ as so found out by scientists decades

I absolutely love jumping on the trampoline but I never really thought there was any physics involved. I knew you had to use a force to jump up and gravity pulls you back down obviously. An American inventor named George Nissen first invented the trampoline in 1935. (Silvia) A trampoline is defined as an elastic disc of hard canvas held up by metal springs attached to a metal skeletal frame. Kinetic and Potential energy allow you to be able to jump on a trampoline. PE=mgh this equation helps you

1.1 GRAVITY AND GRAVITATIONAL FIELDS 1.1.1 Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field. Weight is the force experienced by an object due to the presence of a gravitational field. This force is directly related to the strength of the gravitational field acting on an object and the mass of that object. m = mass‚ g = acceleration due to gravity m = mass‚ g = acceleration due to gravity Fg = mg Fg = mg 1.1.2 Explain that a change in gravitational
