4s and the reaction time while someone is distracting the member is 0.5s‚ and lastly graph matching. 1. Introduction All of us have the ability to move. Knowing how to describe motion is an important first step in understanding the underlying physics that governs changes in motion. We see changes in motion all the time‚ as we go to work or school‚ participate in sports or even wander around our homes. If we never changed our own motion‚ we would never make it out of bed in the morning. The study

Hoo Sze Yen Form 4 Experiments Physics SPM 2008 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO PHYSICS 1.1 PENDULUM Hypothesis: The longer the length of a simple pendulum‚ the longer the period of oscillation. Aim of the experiment: To investigate how the period of a simple pendulum varies with its length. Variables: Manipulated: The length of the pendulum‚ l Responding: The period of the pendulum‚ T Constant: The mass of the pendulum bob‚ gravitational acceleration Apparatus/Materials: Pendulum bob‚ length

wavelengths) of these radiations can tell us a lot about the molecule‚ atom‚ and nucleus under study. Since diffraction-grating spectrometers and other types of radiation spectrometers are widely used in all sciences you should be familiar with the basic physics of such device What does diffraction look like? When light diffracts off of the edge of an object‚ it creates a pattern of light referred to as a diffraction pattern. If a monochromatic light source‚ such as a laser‚ is used to observe diffraction

Because the work is directly proportional to the displacement given a constant force while power is indirectly proportional to work. Therefore we can conclude that power is also directly proportional
