constant. If a ball is attached to the end of string and swung at a constant speed (i.e. only the direction of the velocity is changing not the magnitude) then there must still be an acceleration. The acceleration is directed towards the center of the motion. This acceleration is call centripetal acceleration! 2.6.2 State the expression for centripetal acceleration. The acceleration of any object moving in a circle at a constant speed is given by the equation: (1) a⃗ =v2r It is important to note

Table of Contents 1.0 Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine how the height of a horizontally launched projectile affects the projectiles range. 2.0 Theory: Galileo showed an appreciation for the proper relationship between mathematics‚ theoretical physics‚ and experimental physics. Galileo discovered that a parabola was the theoretically ideal trajectory of an accelerated projectile in the absence of friction and other disturbances. Galileo agreed that there are

Experiment 2: Kinematics of Human Motion Laboratory Report Leopoldo Luis A. Gueta‚ Lady Lian Lagamayo‚ Val Ian Caleb Leus‚ Kimberly Anne C. Macarilay Department of Math and Physics College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas España Street‚ Manila Philippines Abstract Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies and systems without consideration of the forces that cause the motion. There are four activities done in this experiment. Graphical analysis

Freshman Physics Name:_________________________________ Per:____ LAB: Marble Launcher Due Date:_________________ You have learned that the motion of any object moving through the air affected only by gravity is an example of projectile motion. Examples of projectile motion include a basketball thrown toward a hoop‚ a car driven off a cliff by a stunt person‚ and a marble launched from the CPO marble launcher. Toss a ball some distance and you can imagine in your mind the arc it follows

Investigating Projectiles Background: A projectile is an entity which only has the force of gravity acting upon it. A projectile can be cast‚ fired‚ flung‚ heaved‚ hurled‚ pitched‚ tossed and thrown. A projectile can be anything as long as it has initial horizontal velocity that is not equal to zero which has the acceleration due to gravity. Projectile motion happens when an object projected with a force stops putting influence on the object after its launched‚ hence the only force being gravity

identified. I also have referred to explosions as divisions. Is this appropriate? Newton’s First Law of Motion: A body will remain at rest or moving with constant velocity unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Example: • Q: while traveling in train if one throws a ball up it lands on his palm though the train is moving. my doubt is that though the ball is detached from motion how does it manage to land on his palm though he is moving along with the train? • A: he ball

PROJECTILE MOTION PRACTICE QUESTIONS (WITH ANSWERS) * challenge questions Q1. A golfer practising on a range with an elevated tee 4.9 m above the fairway is able to strike a ball so that it leaves the club with a horizontal velocity of 20 m s–1. (Assume the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m s–2‚ and the effects of air resistance may be ignored unless otherwise stated.) a b c d e How long after the ball leaves the club will it land on the fairway? What horizontal distance will the ball travel
