Lab 5 Conservation of Momentum and Energy Abstract The physics laws governing conservation of momentum and mechanical energy were investigated by performing multiple experiments with differing conditions. Conservation laws state energy is to be conserved in systems with no net external forces. Two trials consisted of inelastic collisions and two trials consisted of elastic conditions. Photogate software helped decipher initial and final velocities in order

Newtonian Absolute Space When Newton proposed his axioms describing fundamental laws of physics‚ he insisted on the necessity of absolute space to a completed theory of mechanics. Absolute space can be best described as not-relationally-dependent space. Newton purports that there is something more to space than just being a vessel to conceptualize positional differences between specific bodies; he claims that there is some objective truth to space -- that spatial differences are not dependent

ENERGY CONSIDERATIONS IN PLANETARY AND SATELLITE MOTION Consider a body of mass m moving with a speed v in the vicinity of a massive body of mass M‚ where M >> m. The system might be a planet moving around the Sun‚ a satellite in orbit around the Earth‚ or a comet making a one-time flyby of the Sun. If we assume that the body of mass M is at rest in an inertial reference frame‚ then the total mechanical energy E of the two-body system when the bodies are separated by a distance r is the sum

the Swinging Wonder Recently‚ an American manufacturer developed a scientific demonstrator named « the Swinging Wonder ». Intended for use in schools as an aid in understanding certain principles of Physics or in the home as an educational toy‚ this small demonstrator quickly became an object of fascination for both the science teacher and the layman. The purpose of this device is to demonstrate Sir Isaac Newton’s law of motion‚ in which action and reaction are equal and opposite.

Lab: Conservation of Energy Purpose: To determine and prove that the total energy will remain the same Materials: ● probe ● meter stick ● 2 by 4 wooden block ● shelf (ramp) ● binders (for elevation) Procedure: 1. determine the mass of the block 2. take your ramp and put one side on the table and the other side on the elevated stack of binders 3. set probe at the top of the ramp 4. set the probe to record position and velocity 5. measure the height of the ramp 6. slid

Many results in geometry can be shown or demonstrated by construction and measurement. For example‚ we can draw a triangle and measure the angles to show or demonstrate that the angle sum of a triangle is 180 ° . However this does not prove that the angle sum of any triangle is 180 ° . To prove this and other geometrical results we use a process called deduction ‚ in which a specific result is proved by reasoning logically from a general principle or known fact. When setting out proofs

The light cone of the event Planet Earth is a complex entity experiencing energetic phenomena that interact with humans in known and unknown ways‚ earth lights phenomena being one of them. Just as local geology determines the local soil and vegetation‚ and therefore the whole natural ecology of an area‚ so it also affects human consciousness. Many ancient sacred sites are located directly upon or close to areas of unusual levels of geophysical phenomena‚ where psychic powers are known to increase

There are many exercise machines in today’s world there but one of the most popular seems to be the stair climber machine. If a stair climber machine is going to be designed the information needed to be collected would vary widely. One would need to compute its angle of incline. Other things needed are the maximum and minimum velocities‚ the distance‚ vertical height of the machine‚ and a stopwatch to count the amount of time a person uses it. To calculate the weight of a person in Newtons a scale
