Solving Part A: Center of Mass in One Direction 1. Since the mass of the plate is a uniform‚ the center of mass is in the center of the plate. The plate has diameter d = 28 cm‚ thus the center of mass is 14 cm from the edge of the plate. In the lab‚ two scenarios will be analyzed; 1) when the glass is standing up‚ and 2) when the glass is laying on its side. When the glass is standing up‚ its mass is uniform about the axis of symmetry. Therefore‚ the horizontal center of mass will be at the exact

Lab 1 – Measurement of Space and Time Anthony Lucci Lab Partner: Amy Hayes Question 4: Both the height and diameter of the cylinder were taken to find the volume; five times for both measurements. Vernier calipers were used to get these measurements by clamping the cylinder between the jaws of the calipers. By looking at the mark of the zero‚ in relation to the main scale‚ the line best lined up with a line from the main scale was taken down. Getting

Hunter Zaun Feb. 12‚ 2013 Mrs. Rarig Physics Projectile Range Versus Angle Intro: First off‚ what projectile motion is motion in two dimensions in both X & Y directions. The only force on the projectile is gravity. With gravity being a presence and a factor in our everyday lives and in this experiment‚ gravity will push down on the projectile forcing it back down to the ground. For example if someone shot a cannon straight and there was no gravity then the cannon would keep traveling at

S. Philip Pachade AP Physics B Energy Conservation Lab 3/8/2014 Preamble After recently finishing up a take home test on the topics of energy conservation we were given an energy conservation lab for a deeper and more intricate analysis of the law of the conservation of energy. As previously mentioned by many physicists the law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed‚ but

EXPERIMENT 2 Measurement of g: Use of a simple pendulum OBJECTIVE: To measure the acceleration due to gravity using a simple pendulum. Textbook reference: pp10-15 INTRODUCTION: Many things in nature wiggle in a periodic fashion. That is‚ they vibrate. One such example is a simple pendulum. If we suspend a mass at the end of a piece of string‚ we have a simple pendulum. Here‚ the to and fro motion represents a periodic motion used in times past to control the motion of grandfather and cuckoo

Law of Acceleration (1907) by Henry Adams (1838-1918) Images are not arguments‚ rarely even lead to proof‚ but the mind craves them‚ and‚ of late more than ever‚ the keenest experimenters find twenty images better than one‚ especially if contradictory; since the human mind has already learned to deal in contradictions. The image needed here is that of a new center‚ or preponderating mass‚ artificially introduced on earth in the midst of a system of attractive forces that previously
