Lab 1‚ problem 3: Motion Down an Incline Shaoren Yuan October 5‚ 2013 Physics 1301W‚ professor: Dr. Zudov‚ TA: David Abstract The processes of a cart rolling up and returning back along a track were recorded‚ and the processes (motion of the cart.) were described as equations. Also‚ we calculated the accelerations of every stage (aup‚ adown and ahighest). Then the relationship among aup‚ adown and ahighest was concluded. Finally‚ the acceleration was measured and was proved from data. Introduction

Uniform Circular Motion – a constant motion along a circle; the unfirom motion of a body along a circle Frequency (f) – the number of cycles or revolutions completed by the same object in a given time; may be expressed as per second‚ per minute‚ per hour‚ per year‚ etc.; standard unit is revolutions per second (rev/s) Period (T) – the time it takes for an object to make one complete revolution; may be expressed in seconds‚ minutes‚ hours‚ years‚ etc.; standard unit is seconds per revolution

Freefall and Projectile Motion Introduction and Objectives This lab experiment was done to determine the characteristics of free fall and projectile motion in Physics. The motion in which a body is thrown or projected is called Projectile motion while free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it‚ at least initially. In this experiment‚ a photogate‚ a chopper‚ and a Universal Lab Interface were used to determine the free fall motion of the chopper as it was

ASP 0501 EXERCISES – circular motion 1 A car travels at a constant speed around a circular track whose radius is 2.6 km. The car goes once around the track in 360 s. What is the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the car? 2 An astronaut in a chamber moves on a circular path‚ much like a model airplane flying in a circle on a guideline. The chamber is located 15 m from the center of the circle. At what speed must the chamber move so that the astronaut is subjected to 7.5 times the acceleration

When relevant‚ data collected should be presented in a table. Objective: To explore the acceleration and force of an object that travels a circular path at constant speed. Motion of this kind is called uniform circular motion. Part 1: Centripetal Acceleration 1. The Gizmotm shows both a top view and a

Shanise Hawes 04/04/2012 Simple Harmonic Motion Lab Introduction: In this two part lab we sought out to demonstrate simple harmonic motion by observing the behavior of a spring. For the first part we needed to observe the motion or oscillation of a spring in order to find k‚ the spring constant; which is commonly described as how stiff the spring is. Using the equation Fs=-kx or‚ Fs=mg=kx; where Fs is the force of the spring‚ mg represents mass times gravity‚ and kx is the spring constant

Case Study- Research in Motion (RIM) “Leading the Way the World Communicates” “It is the partnership and teamwork that underpinned the company and transformed the world!” The blackberry has challenged a number of very basic concepts in work and life. It eliminates distance and time and challenges the boundaries between work and home. It has enabled us to do things that would have been impossible 10 years ago. As a company itself RIM breaks the status quo by encouraging teamwork‚ empowering

Newton ’s laws of motion Newton ’s laws of motion are three physical laws that form the basis for classical mechanics. They describe the relationship between the forces acting on a body and its motion due to those forces. They have been expressed in several different ways over nearly three centuries and can be summarized as follows: 1. First law: The velocity of a body (a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line) remains constant unless the body is compelled to change that state

PERFORMING A MOTION STUDY AND PERFORMING A TIME STUDY A time and motion study (or time-motion study) is a business efficiency technique combining the Time Study work of Frederick Winslow Taylor with the Motion Study work of Frank and Lillian Gilbreth (not to be confused with their son‚ best known through the biographical 1950 film and book Cheaper by the Dozen). It is a major part of scientific management (Taylorism). After its first introduction‚ time study developed in the direction of establishing

undergo a vertical motion‚ but also undergo a horizontal motion. That is‚ as they move upward or downward they are also moving horizontally. There are the two components of the projectile’s motion - horizontal and vertical motion. And since perpendicular components of motion are independent of each other‚ these two components of motion can be discussed separately. The goal of this part of the lesson is to discuss the horizontal and vertical components of a projectile’s motion; specific attention
