science‚ we were paired up in groups to build a car powered only by a rubber band. There was a lot of physics and thought put behind the planning of our car. The rubber band moved the car by storing up elastic potential energy which then turned into kinetic energy when released. Newton’s Laws of Motion also come in handy when thinking about how to keep the car moving. “An object in motion stays in motion.” There was also a lot of thought put into the wheels. We had to be aware of the relation between

Brownian motion Journal report by Kimberly Stacey Rosas Anatomy and Physiology Lab I 2101.01 Introduction: What is the Brownian motion? The Brownian motion is the erratic random movement of microscopic particles in a fluid as a result of continuous bombardment from molecules of the surrounding medium. Robert Brown was a distinguished microscopist and botanist in the 1800s. Brown discovered the naked ovule of the gymnosperemae which is the most exacting piece of microscopical investigation

variables involved in uniform circular motion Hypothesis: I predict that the velocity of the stopper will increase as the radius is shortened. Rubber stopper with a hole PVC tube or wooden spool 1. Measure the mass f the stopper and washer‚ m‚ and record it in the data and observations section. Then‚ prepare the experimental apparatus as shown in figure A. 2. Throughout this experiment‚ you will need to maintain a constant radius of uniform circular motion while ensuring that all of the centripetal

The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there

AP Physics B Energy Conservation Lab 3/8/2014 Preamble After recently finishing up a take home test on the topics of energy conservation we were given an energy conservation lab for a deeper and more intricate analysis of the law of the conservation of energy. As previously mentioned by many physicists the law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed‚ but it can be transferred or transformed from one form to another. Also the
