Vary m by adding or removing mass from the glider. Repeat steps 5-11. Try at least four different values for m. Calculations For each set of experimental conditions: Use the length of the glider and your average times to determine v1 and v2, the average glider velocity as it passed through each photogate. Use the equation a = (v2 - v1)/t3 to determine the average acceleration of the glider as it passed between the two photogates. Determine Fa, the force applied to the glider by the hanging mass.
4. Calculate the density of air inside the wind tunnel and uncertainty [kg/m3]. Part 2: Calibration of a Pressure Transducer and Scannivalve 1. Zero out the micromanometer and obtain its bias. Apply this bias to all micromanometer measurements.
t = 3.88 s – this was recorded from the moment the rocket was launched to apogee using a stopwatch. V= 0 m/s – at top of apogee, the rocket has no velocity as it turns to face the ground a = 10 m/s^2 – constant acceleration of gravity To calculate the height, initial velocity is determined using the following equation. V=Vo+ at V is velocity, Vo is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time. 0=Vo+ -103.88 Vo=38.8 m/s To find the height at apogee: ∆x=Vot+ 12at2 x is distance from launch to apogee. ∆x=3.88(38.8)+ 12(10)(3.88)2 ∆x=75.27 m Therefore the height given in problem 1 and the time calculated in problem 2 does not match and does not confirm.
For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account. 2. Inertia - A property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force. 3. Potential Energy - Is the energy stored in an object due to its position in a force field or in a system due to its configuration.
Astronomy 10 Chapter 11 1. Both used to be normal stars but the white dwarf ran out of hydrogen, they are both subjected to gravitational theories. A Neutron star is a fluid of neutrons, as hot at its surface as the inside of the sun and has a greater magnetic field. 3. Because its density is so high, neutrons spin in the same way that electrons do so must obey the Pauli Exclusion Principle.
The basic force of the universe The force of attraction between all objects in the universe A force we experience all the time All of the above | | 2. | An object's weight: Depends on the strength of the force of gravity Would be the same everywhere in the universe Has nothing to do with gravity | | 3. | The amount of gravity between two objects depends on: The distance of each object from each
The cart causes the supporting structure to flex, bend and vibrate and producing kinetic energy but not on the cart but on the track. The conservation of energy illustrates work and energy relationships. It states that the work done by external forces changes the amount of mechanical energy. Energy cannot be created or destroyed and it remains constant. The conservation of energy in the case of a roller coaster demonstrates that when a cart reaches its initial summit only force is gravity.
The purpose of this lab was to disprove the Flat Theory and find solid evidence supporting the round earth theory. The flat earth theory has to be proven from data that anyone can collect and in the state of Utah. We are disproving the flat earth theory by measuring the angle between the North Star and, the horizon one in relation to the observers distance from the North Pole. Our independent variable is the distance from the North Pole and our dependent variable is the angle between the horizon line and polar. The flat earth theory describes the earth as being a floating disk with another disk above us that contains stars, planets, and the moon and is constantly rotating.
The brain is a physical system whose operation is governed solely by the laws of chemistry and physics. What does this mean? It means that all of your thoughts and hopes and dreams and feelings are produced by chemical reactions going on in your head (a sobering thought). The brain's function is to process information. In other words, it is a computer that is made of organic (carbon-based) compounds rather than silicon chips.
“The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed”. (King, R 2012) Energy can be converted into many different forms, such as; chemical energy can be converted into heat energy. Nutrients contain molecules that have high chemical energy potential but are often not available to the body. Chemical energy that is found in the nutrients can also be converted into a useful form of mitochondria, this is cellular respiration. Glucose + Water = Carbon dioxide + Water, the same time, ADP is converted to ATP a high energy unstable molecule.
