    Amusement Park and Newton’s laws Magic mountain amusement park is really great especially their roller coaster rides,but it’s not just how it’s built it’s also because Newton’s laws make it even more amazing.Some of them that I am a fan of are the Green lantern, Apocalypse, as well as their Batman no escape. These rides are great with all the ways they go up down and around,but Newton’s law really make it exciting with motion,and an object at rest because it gives you that unexpected thrill…

    of electrodynamic shaker are displacement, velocity and acceleration. Shaker is operated by displacement at the lowest frequency. On the other hand, acceleration limit the performance of shaker at highest frequency. For velocity limit performance of shaker in a band between the other two. For example, Thermotron?s DS- 2250 vibration system has a displacement limit of 2? peak-peak, a velocity limit of 100 inches per second, and an acceleration limit of 100 g?s. Each of those limits applies over a…

    graphs of the distance vs. time graph along with the velocity vs. time graph, accurately supports the hypothesis formed at the beginning of this experiment. From the interpretation of the first graph, the chart vaguely shows the changing velocity (acceleration) as well as positive velocity of the objects motion (as seen from the slight curve upwards). However, from another perspective, it might seem as if the diagram is showing a constant, positive velocity as the line is linear with no curved…

    In this report i will be explaining some of galileo experiments. It will explain how the projectiles and the parabolic actually work. Using an incline plane Galileo experimented acceleration motion and he will use the same projectile motion to study. He placed a inclined plane on a table with a curved piece at the bottom which deflected a bronze ball into a horizontal direction. The ball results accelerated rolled over the table top with a uniform motion then rolled of the edge of the table on…

    present in this activity. Launching Potatoes through Potato launchers is an example of projectile motion, it also shows how gravity can impact acceleration. Projectile motion occurs when an object is thrown and it moves along a curve due to gravity. The only force that a project has during projectile motion is gravity which causes a downward acceleration. These three principles of physics are present in such a simple activity. The article mentions the students reaction as they observed…

    a majority aspect of physics, Velocity (both initial and final), Acceleration, Displacement, and Time to find how fast the egg within the vessel will go when drop from the top of a rail in the back of the school. Initial Velocity will determine the speed the egg left its initial position, the final velocity will determine the speed of the egg before crashing, Time (in Second) will tell how long the egg was in the air, Acceleration will tell how fast it went, and Displacement will tell us how far…

    Why Do People Enjoy Roller Coasters Over the past several decades, roller coasters have become more popular and frightening. Most or all amusement parks have multiple rides, and these rides are what attract park goers. So why is it that people are attracted to roller coasters? The answer isn’t clear, but it could be that there is a certain amount of risk involved, the adrenaline rush is like no other, it brings families together and they are incredibly safe. When roller coasters were…

    Questions 1. If the acceleration of an object is zero, are no forces acting on it? Explain. a. No, forces would still be acting on an object if its acceleration is zero. Acceleration is only the change in velocity and in the F=ma equation, the F stands for net force. For example, if a car was traveling at a constant velocity, it would still have forces such as gravity, friction, and normal force acting on it. 2. Only one force acts on an object. Can the object have zero acceleration? Can it…

    Part II of Thomas Friedman’s book Thank you for Being Late: An Optimist’s Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations revolves around the accelerating forces of technology, globalization and climate change, which are driving the “Machine.” A term used by the author to describe “the world’s biggest gears and pulleys [that] are shaping events.” In chapter 6, Friedman uses “Mother Nature” as an umbrella term to refer to climate change, biodiversity loss and population growth and he argues that…
