Pendulum Raiyan Hassan SPH3U September 20‚ 2011 Introduction A pendulum is a device which consists of a mass attached to a string from a frictionless pivot which allows it to swing back and forth. In this experiment‚ the time it takes for a pendulum to go through a period is going to be measured. The time it takes for a pendulum to go through one period can depend on factors such as the length of the string‚ mass‚ or the degree in which the pendulum is released from (amplitude). In this

the period and the frequency of a ticker timer. Materials/Apparatus: One ticker timer One carbon paper disc One 1.5+ meter tape One test tape One stop-watch Theory: The recording timer is a device that helps you study motion‚ it is a simple electric device plugged into mains power‚ with a stylus that vibrates up and down. The stylus hits a tape that can be drawn through leads‚ and presses it onto the carbon disc below. This leaves a dot on the tape for every hit. The

Spokane‚ Washington. Viney and Fenton (1998) defined the term electrophoresis as‚ “the migration of charged particles through a static medium under the action of an applied electric field (p. 576). Just from this definition‚ it is clear that numerous physics concepts can be used to help explain why electrophoresis works. First‚ I will discuss charge and electric fields and how these principles are utilized in gel electrophoresis. This will be followed by a

PDP Physics Lab Report – 01 NAME: Wang Xueqian DATE: 2014/06/21 Introduction In this experiment‚ we will investigate the relationship between the linear speed of an object and magnitude of centripetal force acting on it. We will use a stopper moving in a circle to create an upward force on the hanging mass; at equilibrium‚ the upward force on the mass will exactly equal the centripetal force.

ACTIVITY: THE CAT’S MEOW / MILK CO-MOTION PURPOSE: To observe the interaction of detergent with the fat of the milk and food color 1. Provide a possible explanation of phenomenon you observed based on the result of your experiment. When food color is added to milk‚ it floats because it is less dense than milk. The non-polar fat in the milk prevents the food color from spreading‚ as it cannot participate in hydrogen bonding with water. When detergent is added to milk and the food color‚ the

Objective: Motion on an Incline with Friction The purpose of this experiment is to prove that the experimental acceleration value calculated is close to the theoretical acceleration values by finding the tension force‚ normal force‚ kinetic friction and the coefficient of kinetic force from the data collected. Theory: The forces acted on an object can be divided up into many different components depending on what the object is doing. In this experiment‚ an object is sliding up an incline plane

variable represents the length of the string and the dependent variable represents the period of one oscillation. The control variable is the mass of the pendulum. In this lab our goal was to see if we can prove if the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s2. The R2 in this lab is closed to 9.8 m/s2 . The formula that we used in this lab is T=2πLg and then we solved for g=L(T2π)2. HYPOTHESIS: The gravity will be 9.81 m/s2 at sea level due to the acceleration. PROCEDURE: Materials: stopwatch‚ meter
