Conclusion: Category 1: Momentum was found that after the collision was less than before the collision by 10%. This was not what has been expected‚ so the difference was fairly significant. This happened because of friction‚ when the two pucks collided‚ they have lost a bit of their momentum‚ so the momentum after the collision differed. Kinetic energy differed more than what was expected‚ it was significantly less after the collision‚ the difference before and after the collision was 63.7%‚

Physics (from Ancient Greek: φυσική (ἐπιστήμη) phusikḗ (epistḗmē) “knowledge of nature”‚ from φύσις phúsis "nature"[1][2][3]) is the natural science that involves the study of matter[4] and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force.[5] More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.[a][6][7] Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines‚ perhaps the oldest through its inclusion of astronomy

PHYSICS ESSAY HOW ELECTROSTATICS INFLUENCE OUR LIVES? INTRODUCTION We all are familiar with the term electricity which comes from batteries and which is used to light bulbs‚ buzzers‚ and other electrical devices. We also know that conductors are those objects which conduct electricity easily and insulators do not conduct electricity at all. This is basic knowledge but right now we are going into detail about electricity and static electricity. ELECTROSTATICS Many of us have this wrong concept

DP Physics IA Thermal physics: Specific Heat Capacity of Metals Introduction: In this experiment we are going to measure the specific heat capacity of a unknown metal. To measure the specific heat capacity we will heat up the metal to certain temperature and release the metal in beaker filled with water. By knowing the mass and temperature of water filled in beaker‚ we will be able to calculate the specific capacity of unknown metal by change in temperature of beaker willed

Calculate the electric force between two point charges of 4.00 µC and 3.00 µC when they are 2.00 cm apart. 2. Two points of equal charge produce an electric force on each other of 3.40x10 -2 N when placed 0.100 m apart. What is the charge on each point? 3. How far apart are two point charges of 2.0x10-6 C and 4.0x10-6 C if they produce an electric force of 0.56

Physics HSC Notes Space 1. Earth has a gravitational field that exerts a force on objects both on it and around it. K1 Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field. Mass is the amount of matter within an object‚ measured in kg Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object’s mass measured in newtons (N). Weight is a force thus a vector quantity. K2 Explain that a change in gravitational potential
