    Cart on an Incline Lab Kennedy Van Allen SPH 4U1 February 20‚ 2014 M. Reid Purpose: To determine both qualitative and quantitative properties of the motion of a cart on an inclined plane on position vs. time‚ velocity vs. time and acceleration vs. time graphs. Question: Which properties of the cart’s motion can be determined from examining each of the three graphs? Hypothesis: The predictions on the type of motion demonstrated by the cart-qualitatively- are shown below.

    force and motion I problem 1 The figure below is an overhead view of a 12 kg tire that is to be pulled by three ropes. One force (Fl‚ with magnitude 50 N) is indicated. Orient the other two forces F2 and F3 so that the magnitude of the resulting acceleration of the tire is least‚ and find that magnitude if (a) F2 = 30N‚ F3= 20 N; (b) F2= 30 N‚ F3 = 10 N; and (c) F2 = F3 = 30 N. problem 2 A weight-conscious penguin with a mass of 15.0 kg rests on a bathroom scale (see figure below).

    How is Acceleration Affected by Mass and Gravity? Introduction How does force and mass affect acceleration? Newton’s second law states that the acceleration of an object depends on the net force acting on the object and the mass of the object. If more mass is applied to the car‚ then the acceleration will be slower. If there is less mass on the car‚ then the acceleration will be faster. If more force is applied to the car‚ then it will accelerate faster. If less force is used the car‚ then the

    What is the direction of the acceleration vector for each of these situations? Remember that if an object speeds up‚ then the velocity and acceleration vectors are in the same direction. If an object slows down‚ then they are in opposite directions. Any object that is traveling in a vertical direction also experiences acceleration due to gravity. Left: Object travels to left and speeds up. Down: Object is tossed upward. A ball is tossed up into the air with a velocity of 50 m/s. The figure

    Law of Acceleration (1907) by Henry Adams (1838-1918) Images are not arguments‚ rarely even lead to proof‚ but the mind craves them‚ and‚ of late more than ever‚ the keenest experimenters find twenty images better than one‚ especially if contradictory; since the human mind has already learned to deal in contradictions. The image needed here is that of a new center‚ or preponderating mass‚ artificially introduced on earth in the midst of a system of attractive forces that previously
