MWH French and Haitian Revolution Comparison Essay In the French Revolution‚ 1789 and the Haitian Revolution‚ 1791‚ the people wanted more rights and equalities. France wanted to gain independence from Britain and equality for nobles. Haiti wanted to gain independence from France and black landowners wanted equal rights. The main reason for these revolutions was the fight for rights and equality. One similar cause between the French and Haitian was their hunger for rights and equality. The

ABSTRACT: The lab of one dimensional motion is a series of experiments that deal with different types of motion in a single direction. In the first experiment‚ one dimensional motion of a small cart on an air track is measured in a one photogate system. The acceleration was calculated by the infrared light emitting electrode of the photogate sensing the slacks on the picket fence. The calculation for gravity yielded 9.63 m/s^2‚ which is consistent with the accepted value of 9.8m/s^2. In the

The point where the centripetal acceleration is provided completely by gravity is when the centripetal acceleration is equal to the gravity. This happens at the point where h=r/2. As the truck moves from point A to point B‚ it would have decreased in height by r. Applying this again to our equation‚ we get; Hence‚ Using this in our g-force equation‚ we get; And so the rider experiences an additional 2g of centripetal force from that experienced at the top. Later‚ as the tuck moves to point

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

AIM: Finding the gravitational field strength by using a simple harmonic motion of a spring and slotted masses. INTRODUCTION: When a mass suspended from a spring is displaced‚ due to the acceleration‚ kg s-2‚ from its equilibrium and released it will oscillate up and down with a kind of motion called simple harmonic motion‚ shm. The period (T)‚ time taken to measure for one complete oscillation‚ of this motion is: m/kg =
