    velocity. Also there is gravitational potential energy in the top of your backswing to cause you to pull the club downward. Kinetic energy is also in golf‚ During your backswing kinetic energy is causing your club to go up and in your downswing all of the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy before you hit the ball. Friction is also involved in golf because friction is the force of two objects rubbing against each other and when you hit the golf ball of the ground your club and the ball

    Heat‚ Kinetic Energy and Temperature SCI 110 02/01/2013 The study of heat relate to Kinetic theory of matter is that universe is made up of matter and energy. Matter is made up of atoms and molecules. Atoms and molecules are always in motion because energy. Energy forces them to contact into each other or vibrate back and forth. When this happens molecules and atoms

Four holes were drilled on the shoebox with electric drill. (Larger than the axles to reduce friction from the cardboard on the axles) 4. A hole was drilled near the top of each pole. 5. The box was cut on the two sides and the poles were inserted and taped onto the cart. 6. The string was wrapped around the back axle. 7. A CD was attached on

    exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus‚ forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy‚ but it has very little kinetic energy.

    Rides and rollercoasters Many theme park rides use the transfer of gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy and kinetic energy to gravitational potential energy. A rollercoaster A rollercoaster car converts GPE to KE when it rolls down the track As the pirate ship falls‚ GPE is transferred into KE. At the bottom of the swing it’s travelling at its highest speed. As it swings back up the other side it slows down as its KE is transferred back into GPE. Rollercoasters use these energy

    Our goal or task for our Rube Goldberg project was to feed the money pig. For our first step a ball rolled down an inclined plane and hit ten dominios. Then the dominios hit a marble for our second step. For our third step the marble rolled off a table and went through a funnel and triggered a mouse trap. In our fourth step the mouse trap went off and a popsicle stick fell off an inclined plane and made a golf ball to roll down it. For our fifth step the golf ball hit another ball on a table. In

    EXAM 1 NOTES The actual pressure at a given position is called the absolute pressure‚ and it is measured relative to absolute vacuum (i.e.‚ absolute zero pressure). Most pressure-measuring devices‚ however‚ are calibrated to read zero in the atmosphere (Fig. 3–2)‚ and so they indicate the difference between the absolute pressure and the local atmospheric pressure. This difference is called the gage pressure. Pgage = Pabs - Patm The pressure at a point in a fluid has the same magnitude in all

    [As you know‚ these laboratory sessions are compulsory course-work. You must attend them. Should you fail to attend either one you will be asked to complete some extra work. This will involve a detailed report and further questions. The simplest strategy is to do the lab.] Notes For the First Year Lecture Course: An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics School of Civil Engineering‚ University of Leeds.

    title of this experiment is the Bernoulli’s theorem apparatus. The objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between pressure head‚ velocity head‚ and static head and compare it with Bernoulli’s Theorem. The total head of flowing liquid between two points remain s constant provided there is no loss due to friction no gain due to application of outside work between the two points. So basically the apparatus used for this experiment consist of a venture tube with different diameter

    Lesson 1.02 Speed‚ Velocity‚ and Acceleration Speed- measures the amount of distnace traveled in a given amount of time. (Doesn’t measure the direction of the travel) How fast an object is going with respect to a frame of reference. You find speed by dividing distance by time. (Speed = distance/time) Instantaneous speed- the speed you are traveling at that moment‚ instead of an average. Motion- change in position of an object‚ relative to a frame of reference. Frame of reference- place or object
