    Determination of the Acceleration Due to Gravity By A Good Student   Abstract   The acceleration due to gravity‚ g‚ was determined by dropping a metal bearing and measuring the free-fall time with a pendulum of known period.  The measured value is 9.706 m/s2 with a standard deviation of 0.0317‚ which does not fall within the range of known terrestrial values.  Centrifugal forces and altitude variations cannot account for the discrepancy.  The calculation is very sensitive to the measured drop

    Design Lab Report Introduction: This lab is looking at the conservation of energy in moving objects. Research question: How do the height and kinetic energy of an object affect the diameter of its crater when it hits sand? Theory: The theory being looked at here is the transfer of gravitational potential energy (GPE) to kinetic energy (KE). At a point of drop of an object‚ the potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy of the object just before it impacts the floor: GPEPosition of drop

    Any object that fall to the earth have a constant acceleration due to gravity of -9.80 m/s^2 if air resistance is ignored. If an object is small and have a reasonable mass‚ we can predict the final velocity of the object and the time of fall‚ since smaller objects with smaller mass have less air resistance. Objects with smaller masses have less air resistance because their velocities are smaller. Objects with larger masses‚ on the other hand‚ will have more air resistance because their velocities

    other at the first glance‚ but if you study them close‚ they actually have many similarities. One of Donatello’s best-known work portrays David after he defeated Goliath by striking him with a stone and cutting his head off with Goliath’s own sword. Donatello was the first artist that created a nude life-sized sculpture since antiquity. His bronze sculpture of David indicates that he completely mastered the classical tradition of art. Particularly his sculpture reflects the style of Polykleitos who
