Free fall and the acceleration due to gravity Problem/Question: How do you measure the acceleration of a falling object? Hypothesis: by measuring velocities of a falling ball then applying the data into equations numerous times‚ the results should approach to the acceleration. Variables: A: Independent Velocity B:Dependant Acceleration C:Constant Distance (photo gates) Materials: Photo gates‚ Clay ball‚ Photo gates machine.

Sketch a velocity versus time and displacement versus time for a car approaching a red traffic light and then leaves it as the light turn green. 2. Jimmy took 8 hrs to drive his Civic from KL to Kota Bharu which was about 400 km away. What was the average speed of Jimmy in km/h? Why‚ in this case was the term average speed used over velocity? 3. A ball rolls with a velocity of 20 m/s on the ground and comes to a stop in 3 minutes. (a) Determine

Lab 4 Projectile Motion Sai Moua Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to define what the initial velocity of the ball when it is launched out of the pipe. Our next objective is to determine at what angle that the ball will be ejected at the maximum range. Lastly‚ we predict and confirm the range before we launch the ball at a certain angle. Theory: Projectile motion according to Dr. James S. Walker is defined as‚ “the motion of objects that are initially launched –or “projected”- and that

purpose of this experiment is to determine if the weight of a certain object affects the velocity of the object when it hits the ground. Hypothesis: If the Buick is projected in the air at the same angle as the other objects‚ then it will have a higher velocity compared to a tank shell‚ a golf ball‚ a baseball‚ a bowling ball‚ a football‚ a pumpkin‚ an adult human‚ and a piano. Introduction: In physics‚ velocity is often defined as the speed. Gravity is the amount of force that acts upon an object

Both’ for Velocity and Acceleration at the top of the page. Now click and drag the red ball around the screen. Make 3 observations about the blue and green arrows (also called vectors) as you drag the ball around. When the ball is stopped there isn’t any changes in the placement of the ball. This means that there is zero velocity at that time. 2) Which color vector (arrow) represents velocity and which one represents acceleration? How can you tell? The green arrow represents velocity and the

Projectile Motion Objectives: The purpose of this experiment is to examine the projectile motion of a ball launched horizontally. The initial velocity will be calculated. The range of the ball will be measured. Theory: Horizontal launch of the ball allows computing the initial velocity v0 by measuring the height of the launch and the distance traveled by the ball: h=‚ s=v0 ∙ t Solving these parametric equations for v0 gives us: 0=s Where h and s are defined from the

Finding the Acceleration of a Ball Problem Statement: How does the height of a ramp that is comprised of two parallel rulers affect the speed of a steel ball bearing rolling down it? Hypothesis: If the steepness of the ramp based on the amount of books propping it up are increased‚ then the steel ball bearings’ speed will increase. Materials: 2 wooden meter sticks 1 steel ball bearing 5 workbooks A roll of masking tape A stopwatch A smooth‚ long surface (preferably a table) Procedures: Arrange

or river per unit of time‚ commonly expressed in cubic feet per second. The up-stream and downstream cross-sections were setup using a tape measure and stakes. There were 21 cross-sections in measured intervals. A current meter was used to measure velocity at the same location as each depth measurement at each cross-section that was determined. Also used was the float-Method‚ a length of stream was measured‚ and a start and finish points were sectioned off. Then a float was used to measure how long
