Acceleration Due to Gravity Have you ever wondered why items always speed up when they are falling? Well it all has to do with acceleration due to gravity. Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity. Acceleration can be calculated by finding the change in velocity and dividing it over the time. The equation is: a= ∆v∆t (“Acceleration”) Acceleration is also a vector because it has a direction. The units of acceleration are typically m/s2. Gravity is the force that attracts

Duncan‚ Vinny‚ and Wayne are all friends working - or wasting time - the summer before senior year in high school. Duncan is the soul‚ Vinny the brains‚ and Wayne the muscle. At the end of the previous summer‚ Duncan tried to save a drowning girl and failed. Not being a hero has really affected his life‚ particularly his relationship with his girlfriend Kim. Also‚ he is now terrified of swimming‚ especially when the nightmares come back. Duncan’s summer job is with the public transit lost and

One of the traditional types of simple machines is an inclined plane. Like the pulley and lever‚ the inclined plane provides a means of raising a heavy load easily. It is mainly useful for loading barrels since they can be rolled up the incline plane. The inclined plane was one of the machines available in ancient times. For example- the early Egyptians used inclined planes in the construction of the pyramids. Today many inclined planes are used in sports and recreation like water skiing and slides

The Physics 500 Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to show how to calculate the average speed and acceleration in six different races. In order to find average speed you will need to use the formula s=d/t (s= speed‚ d=distance‚ t=time). On the other hand‚ for accelaration you will use the formula a= vf-vi/t (a=acceleration‚ vf=final velocity‚ vi= initial velocity‚ t=time). Average speed is how fast something is moving; the path distanced moved per time. Acceleration is the

Out with the Old and New Each of us is raised within a culture‚ a set of traditions handed down by those before us. As individuals‚ we view and experience common heritage in subtly differing ways. Within smaller communities and families‚ deeply felt traditions serve to enrich this common heritage. In Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use”‚ the message about the preservation‚ specifically African-American heritage is very clear in her eagerness to claim an ancient heritage; a woman may deny herself
