circle) were used to describe anomalies such as the retrograde motion of planets. Equants (a point which the centre of a planet’s epicycle moved at a uniform velocity) were used to approximate where planets would be at a certain time. Even though the Ptolemaic model had various defects‚ as astronomers assumed that all the planets revolved at a uniform rate‚ planets revolved in perfect circles‚ and didn’t explain the retrograde motion of planets that it was formulated to do; it was still widely accepted

A Labybug was crawling in a circle around a flower like in the picture below. a. Sketch what you think the velocity and acceleration vectors would look like. b. If the flower is the “zero” position‚ what would the position vector look like? c. Use Ladybug Motion 2D to check your ideas. Make corrections

FORCE AND MOTION Scalars vs. Vectors Scalars | Vectors | A scalar quantity has only magnitude. | A vector quantity has both magnitude and direction. | Scalars can be added‚ subtracted‚ multiplied and divided just as ordinary numbers‚ i.e.‚ scalars are subjected to simple arithmetic operations. | Vectors cannot be added‚ subtracted and multiplied following simple arithmetic laws. Arithmetic division of vectors is not possible at all. | Example: mass‚ volume‚ time‚ distance‚ speed‚ work‚ temperature

independent variable was the amount of water being used and the dependent variable was how high my bottle rocket went. Since the purpose of my experiment was to find out amount of water made an air-pumped bottle rocket go higher‚ I had to first learn how to build an air-pumped bottle rocket. After searching on the internet for about 5 minutes I learned how to build one. It took me few days to retrieve the materials that I needed and to find a pump for my rocket. Following the instructions I found online

Old Dominion University PHYS 111N Experiment 10 Harmonic Motion Submitted by: Lab Partner: Lab Instructor: Introduction In this experiment we will investigate the simple harmonic motion of an object suspended by a spring that oscillates on a vertical plane and in a separate experiment was examine oscillations on a horizontal plane. In simple harmonic motion‚ the displacement from the equilibrium position is directly proportional to the force. The force generated is always directed toward
