purpose of gravity Gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental forces‚ yet it is the dominant force in the universe for shaping the large scale structure of galaxies‚ stars‚ etc. The gravitational force between two masses m1 and m2 is given by the relationship: Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation r - the distance separating the centers of mass of the objects F - the force of gravity (in units

yourself how a roller coaster works? Would roller coasters safely run without the knowledge that physics offers us? The answer is no. Roller coasters are driven by physics; it mobilizes and gives its riders amusement through forces such as inertia‚ gravitation‚ and centripetal forces and utilizes different types of energies such as potential and kinetic energy. Physics is what makes roller coasters safe and effective. It is not only the high speed of the trains of a roller coaster that makes the ride

Newton’s First Law of Motion explains that objects in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in rest unless an external force is applied to it. Galileo’s concept of inertia is termed “Law of Inertia”. Law of Inertia‚ an object in motion will continue in the same motion unless acted by an outside force. Aircraft in flight is an example of First Law of Motion‚ four forces on an aircraft; lift‚ weight‚ thrust‚ and a drag. Consider the motion of an aircraft at constant altitude‚ we can neglect the

3rd Law Cont. If object 1 and object 2 interact‚ the force exerted by object 1 on object 2 is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force exerted by object 2 on object 1. Equivalent to saying a single isolated force cannot exist • F12 may be called the action force and F21 the reaction force. • Actually‚ either force can be the action or the reaction force Some Action-Reaction Pairs is the normal force‚ the force the table exerts on the TV and always perpendicular to the

of motion: The resultant force is proportional to the change in momentum per a second. We know that force = mass x acceleration. So F (mv-mu)/t F m (v-u)/t = ma so F=kma Momentum is a vector quantity: Momentum has a direction as well as a magnitude Momentum and Newton’s first law of motion: An object remains at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by a force. If an object had a constant momentum‚ it will have a constant amount of force needed to that will mean

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this assignment is to experimentally and analytically determine shear forces and bending moments when an external load is applied in various scenarios. In turn‚ we aim to investigate the relative accuracy of such comparisons taking into considerations possible practical applications and possible attributes to the error. Additionally‚ we attempt to develop shear force and bending moment diagrams using MATLAB. Finally we investigate the loadings in a real life situation

Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to test Coulomb’s Law which states that the force between two spherically symmetric charged objects is directly proportional to the product of the charges‚ and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the centers of the two charges. In mathematical vector notation Coulomb’s Law is expressed as where Fr is the force on particle 1 due to particle 2 in Newtons‚ q is the charge on 12 1 particle 1 in Coulombs‚ q2 is the charge on particle

secured them in two smaller boxes. I secured the eggs in the smaller boxes by rolling a piece of cardboard about an inch in width around the egg to create a holder. The egg can easily slide in out of the holder‚ but not easily enough to fall out once a force is applied. I taped the holder to smaller squares of cardboard and taped them down to the bottom of the smaller box. Each small box had the same construction. Finally‚ to secure the smaller boxes in the big box‚ I hot glued them down in the center
