Lab #1: Projectile Motion Purpose: To determine experimentally the initial and final velocities of an air powered projectile. Hypothesis: If the angle of the rocket is launched at 45 degrees than the distance and velocity will maximize. Materials: Rocket launching platform Rocket launcher Rocket body Air pump Safety goggles Rubber washer Nose cone 40‚ 45‚ 50‚ 55 and 60 angle wooden blocks Measuring wheel Procedure: 1. The rocket was assembled by the rocket launcher

The purpose of this lab is to demonstrate Keplar’s First Law of Planetary Motion by calculating the eccentricity of ellipses. The 3 main words that were important in this lab exercise was eccentricity‚ ellipse‚ and foci. Eccentricity means the degree of ovalness of an ellipse or how far an ellipse is from being a circle.

Simple Harmonic Motion Lab Report In this lab‚ I will study the principles of simple harmonic motion using an oscillating pendulum. If I were to design an experiment that would help me study the properties of an oscillating pendulum and investigate what causes a pendulum to swing faster or slower‚ I would prepare several masses (e.g. 20g‚ 50g‚ 100g‚ 200g‚ etc.) that can be attached to a string‚ several strings of varying lengths from 0.1m to 1.0m that are strong enough to support the weight of the

Experiment 7: Relative Density Laboratory Report Marella Dela Cruz‚ Janrho Dellosa‚ Arran Enriquez‚ Alyssa Estrella‚ Zacharie Fuentes Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas España‚ Manila Philippines Abstract The experiment was conducted to show the different methods on how to determine an object’s composition through its density and to determine an object’s density by displacement method and the Archimedes Principle. Results show that. The materials

II Uniform Circular Motion A. Nomenclature 1. Speed – magnitude of an objects rate of motion (no direction‚ scalar quantity) 2. Velocity – speed and direction of an objects motion (vector‚ mag & direction) 3. If a car’s speed is constant but direction is changing‚ velocity is changing. 4. 2 ways to change velocity (change speed or change direction). 5. acceleration – change in speed over time (vector quantity) TWO types; a. Linear acceleration – speed

- FARAH ADIBAH BT MOHD JOHARI -SITI THAHIRAH BT ABUL KALAM Objective : a) To determine the relationship between velocity and time b) To determine the acceleration of the motion of the trolley c) To find the constant force exerted on the trolley Introduction: Newton ’s second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables

Kinetic Friction Experiment #13 Joe Solution E01234567 Partner- Jane Answers PHY 221 Lab Instructor- Nathaniel Franklin Wednesday‚ 11 AM-1 PM Lecture Instructor – Dr. Jacobs Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to examine kinetic friction and what factors affect it. We pulled a wood block across a surface to determine whether the surface area of the block or the type of surface affects friction. The surface area did not appear to affect friction‚ since there was a small percent difference

top of the cup‚ the shorter the distance of the cup moved and it included all of the three Newton’s laws. My hypothesis actually turned out to be accurate. It’s really fascinating that how only 1 experiment can prove all of Newton’s three laws of motion just like that. When the marble was getting released from the ramp I observed it hitting the cup and surprisingly the cup didn’t fall off or changed directions it went in a straight path. For 1 penny we got the longest distance such as 4cm for trail

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
