IB Physics Internal Assessment Andy Tang Research Question In this internal assessment‚ I am given a cantilever to find the physical properties of it. I decide to investigate the relationship between the force I act on one side of the cantilever and the maximum acceleration the tail can reach. This experiment will be also showing the elasticity of the cantilever. Since I pull down one side of it and fixed the other side‚ when I cut the string‚ it will bounce up and down until all the internal

from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. By doing this‚ you make the time of the impact about 10 times as great as for a stiff-legged landing. In this way the average force your body experiences is less than 1/10 as great. more than 1/10 as great. about 1/10 as great. ***(answer) about 10 times as great. Answer --> C‚ about 1/10th as great by bending your legs Time extended decreases acceleration value. You can solve and prove it using Newton’s

hotdog was placed where the light hit. The solar cooker with the hotdog was left under the sun’s heat while the researchers watched if it would work. It took about 20-25 minutes before the hotdog was cooked. The researchers then tried to cut another piece of hotdog into smaller pieces to see if it would lessen the time being consumed. It took about 15-20 minutes in cooking the smaller pieces. Lesser time was

HSC Physics Space 1. The Earth has a gravitational field that exerts a force on objects both on it and around it Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object‚ it is measured in kilograms (kg). The weight of an object is a measure of the force with which it is attracted by a gravitational force‚ it is measured in Newtons (N). It is directly related to the strength of the gravitational field at a point where the object

RESEARCH PAPER IN PHYSICS By: Sharmaine Joyce T. Sebastian B.S PT 2A2-1 College of Physical Therapy Sebastian‚ Sharmaine Joyce T. December 2‚ 2013 1. Why an ice cube at 0°C is more effective in cooling soft drink than the same mass of water at 0 °C? Enthalpy of fusion is the change in enthalpy resulting from heating a given quantity of a substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid. The temperature at which this occurs is the melting point would

The Physics of Field Goal Kicking Physics is involved in all of our daily activities. Most of the time‚ however‚ physics is overlooked and never acknowledged. It is important to understand different aspects of physics because physics tells us how and why certain events occur. By definition‚ physics is the search for laws that describe the most fundamental aspects of nature: matter‚ energy‚ force‚ motion‚ heat‚ light‚ and other phenomena. There are many different sectors of physics‚ but we will

adrenaline junkies and thrill seekers. The sport involves jumping from a tall structure‚ being a building‚ bridge or crane‚ while secured to a nylon-cased rubber band8. While the sport is enthralling‚ it is extremely dangerous and requires knowledge of physics and physical phenomena. Knowledge of the energy transformations involved in bungee jumping are required to complete calculations‚ which determine safe jumping conditions. This proposal will explore the parameters and ideas of possibly operating a

3 The Relation of Physics to Other Sciences 3-1 Introduction Physics is the most fundamental and all-inclusive of the sciences‚ and has had a profound effect on all scientific development. In fact‚ physics is the presentday equivalent of what used to be called natural philosophy‚ from which most of our modern sciences arose. Students of many fields find themselves studying physics because of the basic role it plays in all phenomena. In this chapter we shall try to explain what the fundamental
