Samantha Mackey 13. 2nd hour PHYSICS LAB REPORT: SPEED OF SOUND Purpose: In this lab‚ we will be doing 3 major things: 1) Collecting and organizing data to obtain resonant points in a closed pipe‚ 2) measure the length of a closed-pipe resonator‚ and 3) analyze the data to determine the speed of sound. Procedure: 1. Fill the graduated cylinder nearly to the top with water‚ with a tall glass tube open at both ends (the water level with act as the closed end). 2. Determine

Pendulum Raiyan Hassan SPH3U September 20‚ 2011 Introduction A pendulum is a device which consists of a mass attached to a string from a frictionless pivot which allows it to swing back and forth. In this experiment‚ the time it takes for a pendulum to go through a period is going to be measured. The time it takes for a pendulum to go through one period can depend on factors such as the length of the string‚ mass‚ or the degree in which the pendulum is released from (amplitude). In this

The Relationship Involving Acceleration‚ Net Force‚ and Mass Giho Park Purpose The purpose of this lab investigation is to observe the relationship among the net force‚ mass‚ and acceleration of an object. Hypothesis/Prediction Part A If the net force increases with a constant mass‚ then the acceleration would increase‚ because the force would push the object to increase the velocity. Part B If the mass of the cart increases with a constant net force‚ then the acceleration would

Lab Report 1: Measurement Lab Date: January 17‚20XX Lab Partners: XZ Report Date: January 24‚2014 Report Written by: XXXXXX Introduction: Measurement is a form of quantitative observation. The ability to make accurate and precise quantitative observations is crucial to science. Accuracy in this sense refers to the closeness of the measured result to the hypothetical “true” value (Motzny 2014). Having a precise measurement implies its exactness.

Experiment 9: THE TANGENT GALVANOMETER; PURPOSE: In this experiment we will measure the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth’s Magnetic field by the use of an instrument called a tangent galvanometer. INTRODUCTION: A tangent galvanometer consists of a number of turns of copper wire wound on a hoop. At the center of the hoop a compass is mounted. When a direct current flows through the wires‚ a magnetic field is induced in the space surrounding the loops of

AP Physics 1 Name _ Joelle Calugay______ An experiment to obtain and compare the spring constants of 3 strings (soft‚ medium‚ and hard) obtained in 2 ways (using the energy chapter and the dynamics chapter)‚ to confirm that Hooke’s Law is valid over a range of initial displacements‚ and to find the acceleration due to gravity on unknown Planet X. Problem: What are the spring constants of 3 strings (soft‚ medium‚ and hard) and how do they compare? Theory: To find the spring constants

Interpretations: 1. The time required for the objects with different masses to fall equal distances was equal. 2. The average speed of the two different masses was quite similar‚ within one tenth of a second of each other. 3. Yes‚ because physics theory says that objects free falling‚ where the only force acting on them is gravity‚ accelerate at the same rate no matter what their mass is. 4. The change in spacing of the dots tells us that the speed of the object is increased as it falls

Aim: To find the mass in grams (m) of a paperclip. Apparatus: Procedure: 1. Using a piece of string‚ the external circumference(C) of the small test tube was found and was then used to find A ‚ the cross sectional area of the small test tube A=C24π . 2. The beaker was placed under the test tube after it was clamped on the retort stand to collect excess water. The large test tube was filled with water. After which‚ the small test tube which had a fitted scale was placed inside to float
