Projectile Motion Lab Report Objectives: This laboratory experiment presents the opportunity to study motion in two dimensions‚ projectile motion‚ which can be described as accelerated motion in the vertical direction and uniform motion in the horizontal direction. Procedures and Apparatus: |Rubber Ball |White sheets of papers | |Metal Track |Water | |Books |Table | |Meter-stick

Circular Motion Uniform circular motion is the movement of an object or particle trajectory at a constant speed around a circle with a fixed radius. The fixed radius‚ r‚ is the position of an object in uniform or circular motion relative to to the center of the circle. The length of the position vector of the circle does not change but its direction does as the object follows its circular path. In order to find the object’s velocity‚ one needs to find its displacement vector over the specific

circle) were used to describe anomalies such as the retrograde motion of planets. Equants (a point which the centre of a planet’s epicycle moved at a uniform velocity) were used to approximate where planets would be at a certain time. Even though the Ptolemaic model had various defects‚ as astronomers assumed that all the planets revolved at a uniform rate‚ planets revolved in perfect circles‚ and didn’t explain the retrograde motion of planets that it was formulated to do; it was still widely accepted

Investigating Projectile Motion Introduction Projectile motion is a type of motion that consists of horizontal and vertical motions which are independent from each other‚ known as vector components. For an object to be considered a projectile‚ it must not be self-propelled. Projectiles move horizontally at a constant velocity. However‚ they undergo uniform acceleration in the vertical direction‚ which is caused by gravity. An important aspect of projectile motion is that the time it takes

By flinging these items I tried to find out if heavier things would travel farther than lighter

Your friend pushes your car forward at an increasing velocity for two seconds. She then pushes your car for three more seconds at a constant velocity. Your friend stops pushing and you immediately apply the brakes for one second‚ but do not come to a stop. Regions and Force Diagrams Graph

zigzagged‚ then its great mass would be to your advantage. Explain why. 6. Inertia can best be described as _____. a. the force which keeps moving objects moving an stationary objects at rest. b. the willingness of an object to eventually lose its motion c. the force which causes all objects to stop d. the tendency of any object to resist change and keep doing whatever its doing 7. Mass and velocity values for a variety of objects are listed below. Rank the objects from smallest to greatest

between the two lines is that one line is at a faster speed than the other in the same amount of time. While one is steeper the other one is not as steep. 2. How would the graph change if you walked toward the Motion Detector rather than away from it? Test your answer using the Motion Detector. Since the graph is going in a positive direction‚ the guess would be‚ that the graph would start from the top instead of the bottom‚ and would go downward causing the direction to become negative.

The discussion about school uniforms has been going on for a very long time through schools in the United States. Some schools believe uniform helps with behavior problems and other believe no uniform is a way to express oneself. As a tenth grader at Orange High School‚ I personally am not a fan of uniform because I like to be creative with my outfits the way I dress is a very big extension of the kind of person that i am. Without that who would we all be? Uniform does not give students a sense
