Lab 1 – Measurement of Space and Time Anthony Lucci Lab Partner: Amy Hayes Question 4: Both the height and diameter of the cylinder were taken to find the volume; five times for both measurements. Vernier calipers were used to get these measurements by clamping the cylinder between the jaws of the calipers. By looking at the mark of the zero‚ in relation to the main scale‚ the line best lined up with a line from the main scale was taken down. Getting

Objective: To study the relationships between position‚ velocity‚ and time‚ with acceleration held constant‚ of an object moving in one-dimensional motion with minimum friction. A motion sensor will be used to measure various aspects of vector quantities. Description: An Air Track is positioned along the edge of the table. It is a long straight metal beam with many small holes that are roughly each 2mm in diameter. It is positioned at an angle to allow the gliders to glide down the slope

Experiment 1.7: Graphical Analysis of Motion Introduction To graphically analyze motion‚ two graphs are commonly used: Displacement vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time. These two graphs provide significant information about motion including distance/displacement‚ speed/velocity‚ and acceleration. The displacement and acceleration of a moving body can be obtained from its Velocity vs. Time graph by respectively finding the area and the slope of the graph. Data Tables – Part I Displacement
