SPH4U-B 4 Circular Motion Physics SPH4U-B Lesson 4 Introduction Transportation has undoubtedly advanced. Not only have vehicles changed‚ but the means by which people can get themselves to and from different locations has changed as well. Maps and compasses now take a backseat to the Global Positioning System (GPS). Access to the GPS is now very widespread; 24 satellites above our atmosphere are used to send and receive information in order to accurately determine locations of

Static Electricity Physics Lab #1 June 24‚ 2011 Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to explain the different aspects of static electricity‚ including effects of electrical charges on small-uncharged objects‚ electrical attraction and repulsion‚ creation of electrical charge‚ practical uses of electrical charges‚ and measurement of electrical force between electrical charges. Findings Electric current is the flow of electric charge. Some materials become electrically charged when rubbed

PHYSICS UNIT 2 Physics P2 for GCSE Additional Science or GCSE Physics AQA GCSE Science PHYSICS 2 Unit P2.1 Forces and their effects Appreciate that forces can cause changes to the shape or motion of an object. Not only can objects can move in a straight line at a constant speed but they can also change their speed and/ or direction (accelerate or decelerate). Be able to use/produce graphs can help us to describe the movement of an object. These may be distance-time graphs or velocity-time graphs

rest who are not caught must be thinking lucky. Some of them manage to jump over or crawl under the broken fence. Whichever way they tried‚ some illegal immigrants succeeded most of the time that’s explained why we have so many illegal immigrants manage to cross the border so easily. Undocumented immigrants believed that the grass is greener on the other side which is the America. The border fence is not as strong as it should be. “Border patrol itself admits a certain impotence in the situation” (Daryl

Research Question How does spacing between dominoes affect the average velocity of the dominoes? Increasing space between each domino will decrease its velocity‚ decreasing the space will increase its velocity. Force at which it hits next dominoes is increased it will take longer for it hit‚ acceleration is constant‚ the longer it has to travel‚ the longer it will take to hit. According to Newton’s first law every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion

Physics (Thorpe Park Trip) Report: On Monday 8th October our physics class went on a physics trip to Thorpe Park to look at the different ways in which a roller coast works. This report will be looking at the G forces acting on rides‚ the launching systems and breaking systems. The particular rollercoaster which I have picked to look into more detail in is “Stealth” which is located in Thorpe Park. Stealth: Stealth was originally designed by Werner Stengel. Stealth reaches a height of 205 feet
