1) A small rocket is being designed to make wind shear measurements in the vicinity of thunderstorms. Before testing begins‚ the designers are developing a simulation of the rocket’s trajectory. They have derived the following equation that they believe will predict the performance of the test rocket‚ where t is time elapsed in seconds. The equation gives the height above the ground level at time t. The first term (60) is the height above ground level of the nose of the rocket. height = 60 + 2

Uniform linear acceleration Introduction This topic is about particles which move in a straight line and accelerate uniformly. Problems can vary enormously‚ so you have to have your wits about you. Problems can be broken down into three main categories: Constant uniform acceleration Time-speed graphs Problems involving two particles Constant uniform acceleration Remember what the following variables represent: t = the time ; a = the acceleration ; u = the initial speed ; v = the final

1. Suppose that an open box is to be made from a square sheet of cardboard by cutting out 6-inch squares from each corner as shown and then folding along the dotted lines. If the box is to have a volume of 486 cubic inches‚ find the original dimensions of the sheet of cardboard. 2. A toy rocket is shot vertically upward from the ground. Its distance in feet from the ground in 5 seconds is given by s(t) = -16t2 + 169t. At what time or times will the ball be 162 ft. from the ground? Round your

How Far Can a Snail Travel In One Minute? [pic] We went outside and went to look for some snails. There weren’t that much but at least we found some. We found three on a tree so we brought them back in a bag. We took them out and placed them where we wanted them to be. Two were tired but the other one was ok. All snails have a different speed. So our answerer can be wrong or right. It mostly depends on the snail/snails. We tested three snails to see how far they go in one

Cart on a Ramp Argument Essay The experiment can be used to determine the acceleration due to gravity accurately when the slope of the ramp is extrapolated to 90 degrees. Experimentally‚ the acceleration due to gravity is valid because when the ramp is set to a 90 degree angle‚ it essentially has no slope‚ so objects that are set at a 90 degree angle experience free-fall which is 9.8 m/s2. Using this knowledge‚ during the experiment if the ramp is set at a higher slope‚ it is essentially approaching

Instrumental texture analysis Texture profile analysis (TPA) Texture profile analysis was performed as per the method used by Reddy and Khairnar (2015). The size of the cutlet used for TPA (two-cycle compression test) was 3.0 cm x 4.0 cm (diameter x height). TPA was carried out using a Taxt-plus Texture Analyzer (Stable Micro Systems Ltd.‚ Surrey‚ UK)‚ attached with a 50 kg load cell. A 75 mm diameter compression platen was used with a pre test speed of 1 mm/ sec; test speed of 1 mm/sec and post-test

To conduct our experiment‚ we used a meter stick on concrete and a tennis ball. We dropped the ball by intervals of ten from 40-100 centimeters above the concrete. To get the average ball-drop height‚ we dropped the ball three times from each height‚ found the mean. Our Y value represents the average bounce heights in centimeters and X represents the drop height in centimeters. We created a scatter plot to show our data (below). The line of best fit went through the points (80‚48.3) and (90‚54.3)

The Speed of Toy Cars & Measuring Acceleration Introduction: The Speed of Toy Cars & Measuring Acceleration was investigated by using a ticker timer and changing the angle of the ramp. Changing the angle of the ramp affects the speed and acceleration of the trolley. The speed and acceleration of the trolley was determined by using the ticker timer. Aim: The aim of the practical is to investigate the motion and acceleration of a trolley by using a ticker timer and rolling the trolley down a ramp
