The objective of the first part of the experiment was to derive an expression‚ under conditions with negligible friction‚ for the acceleration of a cart on a level track when it is attached by a string to a hanging mass at the end of the track. With the value of acceleration and the mass of the weight divided by the mass of the weight plus the mass of the cart‚ a value for free fall acceleration (g) could be determined. For the second part of the experiment‚ the objective was to derive a second equation

There are many energy sources that can be readily converted into electricity. In Australia‚ most power plants burn a fuel‚ such as coal‚ or use the energy of falling water to generate electricity on a large scale. Electricity is also relatively

Spokane‚ Washington. Viney and Fenton (1998) defined the term electrophoresis as‚ “the migration of charged particles through a static medium under the action of an applied electric field (p. 576). Just from this definition‚ it is clear that numerous physics concepts can be used to help explain why electrophoresis works. First‚ I will discuss charge and electric fields and how these principles are utilized in gel electrophoresis. This will be followed by a

What is Physics? Physics is a field of science that shows the interaction between matter and energy. It shows physical processes that help us understand better how our universe behaves. Physics also use scientific method that formulates and tests hypothesis which are based on observations and comprehensions. What are the different fields under Physics? PHYSICS PHYSICS dealing with physical processes and their relations in the science of physical chemistry. dealing

Physics (from Greek)‚ i.e. "knowledge‚ science of nature"‚ from φύσις‚ physis‚ i.e. "nature"[1][2][3][4][5]) is a part of natural philosophy and a natural science that involves the study of matter[6] and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force.[7] More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.[8][9][10] Physics is the field of science that studies the physical world.

vector. A force causes only a change in velocity (an acceleration). According to Newton an object with a certain velocity maintains that velocity unless a force acts on it to cause acceleration (that is‚ a change in the velocity). This applies to the experiment because the further is has to travel the greater the average velocity. [pic] Variables Independent: distance between dominos‚ force applied‚ Dependant: velocity Controls: the amount of dominos used‚ the
