Physics Lab Report#8 “Solving Problem Involving Vector Addition” Name: Fei Huo Date performed: November 12‚ 2014 Period 5 Teacher: Mr. Glasel Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to solve problems that involve the vector addition. Introduction: My classmates and I were solving the equations by graphing them and/or to solve them algebraically. Each of the equations had scales and we were to use these scales for each question in graph paper. Some if the questions didn’t need to

AP Physics Slinky Velocity Lab Group: Asaf Yankilevich‚ Lily Greenwald‚ Yaeli Eijkenaar‚ Michal Antonov 2/23/15 Materials ● Slinky ● Spring weight ● Force measurer ● Measuring Tape ● Timer Procedure 1. The first slinky’s mass was weighed‚ using a scale‚ and its tension was measured using a force measurer 2. The slinky was stretched to 4m. 3. The linear mass density was solved for‚ by dividing the mass by the length. 4. The theoretical velocity was solved for‚ using the equation

Objective: To study the conservation of energy and momentum using projectile motion. Theory: The ballistic pendulum demonstrates both the constant horizontal velocity in projectile motion and the conservation of momentum. Because there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction‚ the horizontal component (v_x) of the projectile’s velocity remains unchanged from its initial value throughout the motion. In a closed isolated system‚ if no net external force acts on a system of particles‚ the total

(a) downwards with a uniform acceleration of 5m/s2 . (a) upwards with a uniform acceleration of 5m/s2. What would be the readings in each case? (d)what would be the reading if lift mechanism failed and it hurtled down freely under gravity? 2. A shell of mass 0.2kg is fired by

because there was more mass to pull as more books were added. This shows newtons 1st law because the books wanted to stay at rest‚ but as more force was added they moved. The 2nd law is seen because the more mass there was‚ the more force was required to accelerate the books. The 3rd law is there because as you pull on the spring balance‚ it pushes pulls back on you‚ which lets it move. The eggs connect to the first law because the hard boiled egg is easier Egg 1 mass: 60.6 to start and stop‚ but the

Misconceptions of Physics One of the misconceptions in physics is about Newtons laws. It says that friction can’t act in the direction of motion. This is wrong because friction can act in the same direction as motion simply because a car on a road is traveling in one direction. The friction on the tires causes it to slow down over a distance along with some air resistance. This proves that friction can act in the same direction as motion A misconception in physics is that the moon is not in

Abstract :The purpose of the experiment is to explore elastic and inelastic collisions in order to study the conservation of momentum and energy. The guided track‚ carts‚ photogates ‚ 250 g weight and picket fences were the primary components used in the procedural part of the experiment. Each experiment involved the use of the photogates and picket fences to measure the initial and final velocities of both carts when they collide. The data was collected and translated to a graphical model for further
