necessary to produce a temperature change of 1°C per gram of substance. The specific heats of different substances vary‚ and therefore this quantity may be useful in identifying an unknown. The measurement of heat changes is called calorimetry. In this lab activity‚ calorimetry will be used to determine the specific heat of an unknown metal. This will be done by using a styrofoam cup calorimeter containing water. A calorimeter is insulated so as to minimize any loss of energy to the surroundings. Therefore

Introduction In this lab the main focus was projectile motion. A projectile is an object flying through the air that is only under the force of gravity (neglecting air resistance). A projectile moves both horizontally and vertically‚ which creates a parabolic flight path. In vertical projectile motion there is a constant velocity since there are no forces in the horizontal direction (neglecting drag due to air resistance). Consequently‚ there is no acceleration in horizontal projectile motion. In vertical

Lab 4 Projectile Motion Sai Moua Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to define what the initial velocity of the ball when it is launched out of the pipe. Our next objective is to determine at what angle that the ball will be ejected at the maximum range. Lastly‚ we predict and confirm the range before we launch the ball at a certain angle. Theory: Projectile motion according to Dr. James S. Walker is defined as‚ “the motion of objects that are initially launched –or “projected”- and that

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to examine the motion of an electron‚ when it encounters a constant magnetic and electric field. We will also observe when the electric field and magnetic field will cancel each other out. This will lead to the electron having no net force acting upon it. By adjusting the values for the magnetic and electric fields‚ we will be able to check the different paths the electron follows. From this data we will be able to calculate the charge-to-mass ratio. Then

Projectile Motion Lab: Using a Toy Gun Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to measure the vertical displacement‚ or height of the launch‚ and the horizontal displacement‚ or range‚ travelled by a projectile (bullet from toy gun). Questions: What is the shape of the actual path travelled by a projectile? How closely does an actual projectile’s results follow the theoretical predicted results? Hypothesis: The shape of the path travelled by the projectile‚ in this case the bullet of
