The Earth has a gravitational field that exerts a force on objects both on it and around it define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field perform an investigation and gather information to determine a value for acceleration due to gravity using pendulum motion or computer-assisted technology and identify reason for possible variations from the value 9.8 ms-2 gather secondary information to predict the value of acceleration

between the armor of the enemy knights also they were used to throw hot tar to attack there enemies. It was also used to launch infected bodies into enemy camps to spread disease. Although they are very hard to create‚ they use very simple forms of physics to complete their task of destruction. The catapult has a basket or cup on the end of a movable arm strong enough and large enough to hold the weight of the object it is intended to hurl. Tension is applied to the arm‚ whether that be applied by

intertwined around itself‚ but regardless of how big‚ fast‚ or gravity defying they are‚ they all use the same natural force – gravity. The more twisting‚ turning‚ flipping‚ and the faster a roller coaster goes‚ the more the coaster depends on the law of physics‚ not mechanics‚ to keep it moving. There is no onboard motor on roller coasters but they can still reach speeds that exceed the limits of a car on the parkway‚ while completing a curve‚ twist‚ rise‚ or plunge. History of Roller Coasters Modern

through a more advanced explanation. Roller coaster rides involve a great deal of physics. The ride often begins with a chain and motor which exerts a force on the train of cars to lift the train to the top of a tall hill. Once the cars are lifted to the top of the hill‚ gravity takes over and the rest of the ride works on energy transformation. There is no motor or engine that takes a train around the track. The law of physics is basically the engine of the train. At the top of the hill‚ the cars possess

AP10005 Physics I Tutorial 7 (Chapters 17‚ 18) 1. (17P11) A flower pot is knocked off a window ledge from a height d = 20.0 m above the sidewalk as shown in the figure below. It falls toward an unsuspecting man of height h =1.75 m who is standing below. Assume the man requires a time interval of Δt = 0.300 s to respond to the warning. How close to the sidewalk can the flower pot fall before it is too late for a warning shouted from the balcony to reach the man in time? 2. (17P15)

The physics of scuba diving Imagine swimming in the underwater world with all the creatures and all the beauty it holds. It is an amazing feeling to swim over coral reefs and see all the sea life up close and personal. So many scuba divers all over the world share a passion to scuba dive. Scuba diving has been a worldwide endeavor for centuries (1). Persian divers were making goggles for diving around 1300. A British engineer invented the air pump in 1771 and in 1772 a Frenchman tried inventing
