Courtney‚ Ashley Abstract: Determine the acceleration due to gravity using a pendulum. Introduction: A simple pendulum consists of a mass suspended by a length of string. When set Oscillating‚ the mass will have a period “T” given by the following equation. This equation shows the only variables that affect the rate at which the pendulum swings is the length “l” that is measured to the center of the object’s mass and the acceleration due to gravity “g”. By rearranging this expression it s

Investigation 2.5: Acceleration Due to Gravity of Different Masses SPH 4CI-01 Al Einstein‚ James Maxwell‚ Isaac Newton‚ James Watt Mrs. Joldwcks Due Date: July 19‚ 2008 Cut-Off Date: July 21‚ 2008 Purpose: To determine if the mass of a falling object affects its acceleration rate. Hypothesis: The greater the mass of an object‚ the greater its rate of acceleration because more massive objects have more gravitational force exerted on them by the Earth. Materials:

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

Determine the acceleration in a quick sprint. Question What would the participant’s acceleration be if he/she sprints forward in a positive direction? Hypothesis/Prediction When a person sprints forward‚ it means he/she speeds up. Consequently‚ the acceleration should be positive. When the velocity accelerates at a constant rate‚ the acceleration should remain constant. Therefore‚ if the participant is moving toward a positive direction and the speed increases‚ then the acceleration should be positive

The lesson is divided into 3 labs that can be completed in any order. After labs have been completed‚ facilitate a class discussion where students summarize and compare findings and relate how their findings support (or refute) Newton’s Laws of Motion LAB 1: How fast can it go? Put one car at the top of the ramp and let it roll down. Use a stopwatch to record the time the car rolled. Use this information to calculate the acceleration of the car. Measure the distance the car rolled using the

DESCRIPTION The Centripetal Acceleration lab consists of using a pendulum bob swinging continuously. This will help see the F_max(tension) and F_(mean )(weight of the pendulum)‚ net force (N) and v_mean(velocity). RESULTS When starting the lab the first thing to do is to measure the cylinder properties (the bob) in table one. The measurements were: diameter (D) is .0815m‚ height (H) is .025 m‚ mass is .06591 kg‚ and the 〖Weight〗_theory W is .645918 Mg‚N. Second thing to do is to launch from

between mass and acceleration Stage 1 - Planning Title: Investigating acceleration – How does changing the mass of an object change its acceleration? Introduction: As the speed of moving object and rate‚ the forces acting on the object‚ the mass of the object‚ and gravitational force of it might affect the acceleration‚ I will investigate about the mass of the object. Aim: I will try to answer the question “How does changing the mass of an object change its acceleration?” which is to find
