    are used in everyday life. Vectors include magnitude and direction, without one or the other it would not be a vector. Several components make up a vector; these items are displacement, velocity, acceleration, and force. By finding the components one can find the horizontal velocity, vertical velocity, initial velocity, and maximum height. Physic equations can be used to help solve these problems. One important aspect that is known to affect vectors is an angle. Angles can help create and show…

    Velocity may impact a javelin throw since the path that the flight of a javelin has both distance and incline/decline. Improving the velocity of javelins may include activities, which are used for speed since they also relate to velocity. Velocity can impact on the efficiency of movement in the performance of a javelin since it will find the calculations where the thrower has not moved in a straight line, the velocity is also important since there is an increase in the velocity when the…

    launch height will reduce the required launch velocity (The Open University, 1995). Kinetic energy is directly proportional to velocity. As a result, less kinetic energy (K_E), or energy of motion, is required by the rocket to overcome the force of gravity acting on the object's mass (m) (K_E=1/2 mv^2). Therefore, if the velocity reduces, so does the kinetic energy of the rocket and thus less electrical energy is needed to achieve the required velocity (v) of the rocket for launch (Bolonkin,…

    determine the velocity of the cart as a function of its height upon the roller coaster, find the kinetic and potential energy for each trial of the cart and conclude energy loss due to friction. The results from part one concluded that as the roller coaster cart went down a hill the potential energy was converted into kinetic energy that resulted in an increase of speed. When the cart was at its highest peak it had the lowest velocity, but at its lowest point it in turn had the highest…

    What speed must the bullet have been travelling at? Ignore friction. [321 m/s] A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 25.0 m/s [E] and lands 70.0 m from the base of the ramp. How high is the end of the ramp from the ground? [38.5 m] An astronaut stands on the edge of a lunar crater and throws a half-eaten Twinkie? horizontally with a velocity of 5.00 m/s. The floor of the crater is 100.0 m below the astronaut. What horizontal distance will the Twinkie? travel before…

    In general, the experiment succeeded in demonstrating free-fall by dropping a tennis ball. Distance and time were documented to calculate velocity and acceleration, the quantities involved in linear kinematics. Graph 1 (distance vs. time) suggests a commonsensical relation - longer distance yields longer time. The only exception is at 1.0 m, where its time value (0.42 s) is less than that of a shorter distance (0.5s for 0.5 m distance). Average time was used to construct the graph, and there…

    investigated is that a more buoyant boat will have a higher velocity. It will encounter less water resistance as less of the hull is below the water. The secondary hypothesis is that the smaller the angle x, a surface is to the water, it will be able to skim and plane across the surface better, thus achieving greater speeds. The models of the boats will be further explained in the Methodology: Boat Design section. Experiment 1: Model A will have a velocity faster than that of Model B, as Model A…
