variables involved in uniform circular motion Hypothesis: I predict that the velocity of the stopper will increase as the radius is shortened. Rubber stopper with a hole PVC tube or wooden spool 1. Measure the mass f the stopper and washer‚ m‚ and record it in the data and observations section. Then‚ prepare the experimental apparatus as shown in figure A. 2. Throughout this experiment‚ you will need to maintain a constant radius of uniform circular motion while ensuring that all of the centripetal

PHYSICS PROJECT TO STUDY THE OPTICAL LENS OF A HUMAN EYE Eyes are organs that detect light‚ and convert it to electro-chemical impulses in neurons. The simplest photoreceptors in conscious vision connect light to movement. In higher organisms the eye is a complex optical system which collects light from the surrounding environment; regulates its intensity through a diaphragm; focuses it through an adjustable assembly of lenses to form an image; converts this image into a set of electrical signals;

The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there

Start a Simple Budget and Plan For Retirement By Jack Landry Sep 15‚ 2011 A simple budget can help you reach your financial goals sooner with less stress and worry. A budget is a plan you put together to track the flow of money into and out of your life. The idea is to find where your money flows out‚ plug the expensive leaks‚ and save more inflowing cash for yourself every month. A basic budget can also expose the sneaky spending habits you’re not aware of and help you plan where to best spend

Student Project The Physics of Sports Instructions: One of the best (and most fun) ways to explore physics and how it relates to the real-world is through sports. Every sport utilizes multiple physics principles. For this project you will chose a sport and study the physics principles involved. The sport you choose must be an actual sport‚ not a computer simulation or animation You will create a short PowerPoint presentation (5 slides max) summarizing your project. The following outline is designed

science‚ we were paired up in groups to build a car powered only by a rubber band. There was a lot of physics and thought put behind the planning of our car. The rubber band moved the car by storing up elastic potential energy which then turned into kinetic energy when released. Newton’s Laws of Motion also come in handy when thinking about how to keep the car moving. “An object in motion stays in motion.” There was also a lot of thought put into the wheels. We had to be aware of the relation between

Physics End of Year Reflection Paper At the beginning of this course you were given some overarching enduring understandings and essential questions. These were: Overarching Enduring Understandings: Students will uncover and use appropriate scientific models to describe and quantify the nature and interactions of matter and energy. Students should understand that there is a network of rules and relationships that determine what will happen in a given situation Students
