Pendulum Raiyan Hassan SPH3U September 20‚ 2011 Introduction A pendulum is a device which consists of a mass attached to a string from a frictionless pivot which allows it to swing back and forth. In this experiment‚ the time it takes for a pendulum to go through a period is going to be measured. The time it takes for a pendulum to go through one period can depend on factors such as the length of the string‚ mass‚ or the degree in which the pendulum is released from (amplitude). In this

Purpose: To practice direct and indirect measurement Introduction: Do you think you could measure the average thickness of a sample of M&Ms without directly measuring selected M&Ms? The answer is "yes‚" and in this activity you will make direct and indirect measurements of the thickness of M&Ms. You will compare the results and evaluate the reliability of each method of measurement. Be sure to view the tutorial on the proper use of the vernier caliper. Please re-visit the information on when

Torque and Equilibrium Purpose: Apply principle of static equilibrium to determine a coefficient of friction. Research Question: What is the coefficient of friction between a meter stick and wall? Hypothesis: Tying a piece of string on to the end of a meter stick‚ put the other end of the meter stick against the wall so that the meter stick is horizontal and does not slide down the wall. Hang a weight on the meter stick sliding it to a point where the meter stick is about to come off from

Conclusion: Category 1: Momentum was found that after the collision was less than before the collision by 10%. This was not what has been expected‚ so the difference was fairly significant. This happened because of friction‚ when the two pucks collided‚ they have lost a bit of their momentum‚ so the momentum after the collision differed. Kinetic energy differed more than what was expected‚ it was significantly less after the collision‚ the difference before and after the collision was 63.7%‚

Pre-lab: Newtons Three Laws of Motion: There are three laws of motion that have been stated by Sir Isaac Newton during the sixteenth century that are looked upon even today. The first of these laws states that an object will stay in at rest or in a constant velocity unless a force acts upon it. In simplest terms this means that if u place an apple on the table it isn’t just going to roll off. The second of these laws states that when a force acts upon an object it causes it to accelerate

Newton`s Second Law – Lab Report Name: Tasneen Ahsan Date: 19th November‚ 2012 Purpose To show how the acceleration of an object changes when‚ the mass changes and the net force is kept constant and when the mass is the same.. Hypothesis I predict that by changing the mass of the object will result in a change in the acceleration as Newton`s second law states that the magnitude of the acceleration of any object is directly proportional to the magnitude

Simple Pendulum PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment is to study how the period of a pendulum depends on length‚ mass‚ and amplitude of the swing. THEORY A simple pendulum is an idealized model consisting of a point mass (sometimes called a pendulum bob) suspended by a massless unstretchable string. When the bob is pulled to one side of its straight down equilibrium position and released‚ it oscillates about the equilibrium position. The path of the bob is not a straight line but an arc
