Matthew Mannetta Simple Harmonic Motion Lab Report Introduction Simple harmonic motion is the motion of a mass on a spring when it is subject to the linear elastic restoring force given by Hooke’s Law. In this lab‚ we will observe simple harmonic motion by studying masses on springs. In the first part of this lab‚ you will determine the period‚ T‚ of the spring by observing one sliding mass that is attached to two springs with the spring constant k‚ and attached to a hanging mass by a string

In the Bloomberg Businessweek article ’Guns Don’t Kill People‚ Gun Culture Does’‚ author Charles Kenny‚ a senior fellow at the Center for Global Development‚ posted his opinion on the gun control debate. Kenny states "Even today‚ the strongest relationship to homicide rates around the world involves overall levels of economic development‚ inequality‚ and social cohesion rather than gun prevalence." However‚ the author continues with a contradiction of that statement‚ writing "Yet‚ if you restrict

top of the cup‚ the shorter the distance of the cup moved and it included all of the three Newton’s laws. My hypothesis actually turned out to be accurate. It’s really fascinating that how only 1 experiment can prove all of Newton’s three laws of motion just like that. When the marble was getting released from the ramp I observed it hitting the cup and surprisingly the cup didn’t fall off or changed directions it went in a straight path. For 1 penny we got the longest distance such as 4cm for trail

How does the mass of a ball affect the distance it will travel ? Exploring Newtons 2nd Law of motion. Background Research How does changing the mass of an object effect how far it will travel ? This question can be answered by Newtons 2nd law of motion; Force equals mass multiplied acceleration (F= ma). This law states that a force on an object will cause it to accelerate in the direction of the force. The greater the force exerted on the object‚ the greater the acceleration. But how does

ACTIVITY: THE CAT’S MEOW / MILK CO-MOTION PURPOSE: To observe the interaction of detergent with the fat of the milk and food color 1. Provide a possible explanation of phenomenon you observed based on the result of your experiment. When food color is added to milk‚ it floats because it is less dense than milk. The non-polar fat in the milk prevents the food color from spreading‚ as it cannot participate in hydrogen bonding with water. When detergent is added to milk and the food color‚ the

Research in Motion: Managing Explosive Growth Research in Motion was founded in 1984 by Mike Lazaridis and was a world leader in the mobile communications market and manufactures products such as the BlackBerry. Mobile wireless communication involves the transmission of signals using radio fequencies between wireless networks and mobile access devices. One of the main economic characteristics of the industry is the high growth potential that exists. This growth potential is exemplified by RIM expecting

How Sugar Affects the Body in Motion By GRETCHEN REYNOLDS Gary John Norman/Getty Images Sugar is getting a bad reputation. A cover article in The New York Times Magazine several weeks ago persuasively reported that our national overindulgence in fructose and other sugars is driving the epidemics of obesity‚ diabetes and other illnesses. But that much-discussed article‚ by the writer Gary Taubes‚ focused on how sugars like fructose affect the body in general. It had little opportunity to examine

The culture of violence affects America. The neoliberal logic of a gun culture atomizes individuals‚ and has historically abrogated their roles as common citizens. The gun rights lobby has perpetuated an ableist discourse to shift responsibility away from the gun culture. It is not messed up people that will kill with guns‚ but guns that and a reasoning system that tells people to deal with their own problems that kills. It is guns that perpetuate the pick yourself up by the bootstrap logic‚ that

Gun control laws should not be strengthened‚ instead they should be enforced. Instead of making it harder for law-abiding citizens to obtain guns‚ guns should be taken away from unstable individuals or people who should not have guns like criminals. The first reason why gun control should not be strengthened is that citizens have the right to own guns; it is one of those entitlements that makes the United States different from other countries. Secondly‚ criminals are criminals and that is why they

Using a sample of 100 motion pictures from 2005 and numerical methods of descriptive statistics‚ including measures of location‚ variability‚ distribution shape and the detection of outliers‚ the motion picture industry can be analyzed more specifically in order to learn how these variables play a part in the success of a motion picture. The main concern of management in this case would be with regard to revenue‚ profit‚ and
