Date Objective to determine the acceleration of gravity for falling objects to prove that this acceleration is the same for all objects regardless of their mass Apparatus objects to drop‚ stopwatch‚ meter stick‚ Pasco motion sensor Procedure Each group will get 1 object record the balls mass Using a meter stick measure a height (distance) that you are going to drop your ball. Making sure that your initial velocity of the ball is 0 m/s‚ drop the ball and measure (using the stopwatch) the time that it

ACCELERATION: Good afternoon everyone! Our group will discuss about acceleration. But before that‚ what is acceleration? Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity. People will occasionally say that a person is accelerating if he/she is moving fast. Yet acceleration has nothing to do with going fast. A person can be moving very fast and still not be accelerating. Acceleration

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

Kater’s Pendulum Thomas Markovich and Kapil Chhabria Departments of Physics University of Houston Houston‚ TX 77204-5006 (Dated: December 9‚ 2010) We experimentally determined the local gravitational constant using Kater’s Pendulum to provide the authors with experience in data analysis. In this manuscript‚ we rigorously derive the relevant equations from first principles with the appropriate expressions for the experimental uncertainty. We found that by assuming the periods were equal we were

The compound pendulum Consider an extended body of mass with a hole drilled though it. Suppose that the body is suspended from a fixed peg‚ which passes through the hole‚ such that it is free to swing from side to side‚ as shown in Fig. 98. This setup is known as a compound pendulum. | Figure 98: A compound pendulum. | Let be the pivot point‚ and let be the body’s centre of mass‚ which is located a distance from the pivot. Let be the angle subtended between the downward vertical (which passes

Pendula A pendulum consists of an arm of low mass with a bob‚ which has a higher mass‚ on the end. The top of the arm is pivoted so that the pendulum can swing. A pendulum will continue to swing back and forth indefinately‚ until it is stopped by air friction and friction within the pivot. When the angle‚ á‚ between the stationary line of the pendulum (the line towards which the movement tends) and the line of maximum amplitude of the pendulum is quite small‚ then the time period of the pendulum can be
