Experiment-5 Thermal physics is the combined study of thermodynamics‚ statistical mechanics‚ and kinetic theory. This practical is done to measure the temperature drop of water over a period of time (30 minutes). Research question- What is the rate of temperature change over a period of 30 minutes? Independent variable- time Dependent variable- the temperature of water Controlled variables- the amount of water in the calorimeter - The stop watch

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 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

necessary to produce a temperature change of 1°C per gram of substance. The specific heats of different substances vary‚ and therefore this quantity may be useful in identifying an unknown. The measurement of heat changes is called calorimetry. In this lab activity‚ calorimetry will be used to determine the specific heat of an unknown metal. This will be done by using a styrofoam cup calorimeter containing water. A calorimeter is insulated so as to minimize any loss of energy to the surroundings. Therefore

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 =

LAB # 5 Relationship Between Drop Height and Diameter of Plasticine Sphere PROBLEM: A student suggest that there is a proportional relationship between height at which a plasticine sphere is dropped and the diameter of the flattened part after dropping. Design an experiment to determine if this suggestion is true or not. AIM: To investigate the relationship between the drop height and the flattened part of a plasticine sphere after being dropped. HYPOTHESIS: As the height of the sphere plasticine

Purpose 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

DP Physics IA Thermal physics: Specific Heat Capacity of Metals Introduction: In this experiment we are going to measure the specific heat capacity of a unknown metal. To measure the specific heat capacity we will heat up the metal to certain temperature and release the metal in beaker filled with water. By knowing the mass and temperature of water filled in beaker‚ we will be able to calculate the specific capacity of unknown metal by change in temperature of beaker willed
