bullet) is thrown‚ hurled or shot in the air‚ the object is a PROJECTILE (“Projectile”). The study of projectile is important because it must be realized that they are very much part of man’s daily life then and now. Whether man likes it or not‚ he encounters and uses projectile in his everyday life. Our hunting ancestors threw stones and spears on animals to kill them for their food. In today’s sports‚ balls follow projectile motion such as when a basketball player shoots the ball

DP Physics IA Thermal physics: Specific Heat Capacity of Metals Introduction: In this experiment we are going to measure the specific heat capacity of a unknown metal. To measure the specific heat capacity we will heat up the metal to certain temperature and release the metal in beaker filled with water. By knowing the mass and temperature of water filled in beaker‚ we will be able to calculate the specific capacity of unknown metal by change in temperature of beaker willed

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

through which it swings. Another factor involved in the period of motion is‚ the acceleration due to gravity (g)‚ which on the earth is 9.8 m/s2. It follows then that a long pendulum has a greater period than a shorter pendulum.

For small oscillations the pendulum is linear‚ but it is non-linear for larger oscillations. You can

Conversely‚ if we know the structure of the grating‚ we can deduce properties about the incident light‚ in particular its wavelength. This will be our task‚ in this first optics lab exercise. The analysis of diffraction patterns is used extensively in the sciences to provide information about the microscopic structure of molecules‚ atoms‚ and nuclei. In addition to various forms of light (gamma rays‚ x-rays‚ visible light‚ infra-red
