    high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time. * Velocity: Velocity is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position."  When evaluating the velocity of an object‚ one must keep track of direction. It would not be enough to say that an object has a velocity of 55 mi/hr. One must include direction information in order to fully describe the velocity of the object. * Distance: Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how

    inclined plane. To measure the instantaneous velocity and to determine the acceleration of the cart from the slope of the velocity-time graph. Theoretical Background A cart moving down a smooth incline speeds up. This is a simple case of a uniformly accelerated motion in one dimension. The rate of change of velocity is constant or uniform. The rate of change of velocity is called acceleration. To determine the acceleration‚ one needs to measure the velocity at two different points along the incline

    after which there is no interference apart from gravity. The initial velocity If the projectile is launched with an initial velocity v0‚ then it can be written as \mathbf{v}_0 = v_{0x}\mathbf{i} + v_{0y}\mathbf{j}. The components v0x and v0y can be found if the angle‚ ϴ is known: v_{0x} = vgh_0\cos\theta‚ v_{0y} = v_0\sin\theta. If the projectile’s range‚ launch angle‚ and drop height are known‚ launch velocity can be found by V_0 = \sqrt{{R^2 g} \over {R \sin 2\theta + 2h \cos^2\theta}}

    Task-1(P1) a. ‘For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction’ When a balloon is inflated plus released with no tying the inlet‚ the balloon flies all above the place as the air is released. The balloon and the air flowing out of the balloon travel in opposite directions. The Third Law of Motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This information can be used to create a balloon pinwheel. Tape the inlet of the balloon around the straw at the end opposite the

    into the subtopics of kinematics and dynamics. Kinematics is concerned with the aspects of motion that exclude the forces that cause motion. In a manner of speaking‚ kinematics is focussed on the development of definitions: position‚ displacement‚ velocity‚ acceleration and on the relationships that exist between them. Dynamics widens the study of motion to include the concepts of force and energy. Definitions Position Kinematics begins with the idea of position. Suppose that we photograph an object

    drop height of the golf ball is increased the velocity of the ball will increase‚ this is because it has more time to accelerate. We hope to find out from our results that the golf balls acceleration is the same as gravity which is 9.81 ms². We intent on showing this through the Suvat equation which is V²=U²+2as where ‘a’ is acceleration. Suvat equations were made by Gottfried Leibniz‚ Suvat stands for displacement (S)‚ Initial velocity (U)‚ Final velocity (V)‚ Acceleration (A) and Time (T). As I said
