and the 40° angle. This may have occurred due to an error in recording the data or a bad ticker timer being used. 2. What forces are acting on the object while it is sliding down the slope? When the object is sliding down the slope the gravity component is the force which pulls the object down. This force also results in the object accelerating. 3. Explain how the forces change as the angle of the slope…

will keep following that pathway. Near the Earth's surface, the influence of gravity begins immediately and affects the entire course of the projectile's flight. A projectile's horizontal velocity remains constant. It does not accelerate. But the force of gravity causes a projectile to accelerate in a vertical direction down toward the surface of the Earth. The influence of gravity pulls the projectile away from its straight-line original path into a curved, parabolic path. Downward acceleration…

The objective of this lab was to figure out how to determine the range from a given set of velocity and height from the ball. The height of the ball when it leaves the horizontal projectile is at 93.5cm or .935m. The velocity of the ball was .0674 seconds in the range of .1 meter. Creating a total velocity of 1.484m/s. To calculate the hang-time the formula: y= -4.9t^2 was used. The hang time is used to figure out how long the ball will be in the air for. After you find the answer, the time is…

Physics Behind Archery Physics A Exam Paper Morgan Avink 11/18/13 The bow and arrow have been around for many years. The bow and arrow were used for wars in the beginning however they were more efficient for hunting and that is what they are continually used for even today with the dangerous substance of gunpowder that could be used. Guns are cool however the physics behind them is nowhere near to the elaborate physics involved in archery. Today we have three common bow types; the longbow,…

Diagram of Prototype A that consisted of an octagonal prism with a length of 11 in. or 27.94 cm. and height of 10.16 cm., while we created corrugated layers within the prism. We decided to change all the dimensions to centimeters instead of using inches as the units. Tinkercad model of Prototype B that consisted of a hexagonal prism with a length of 27.94 cm., height of 10.16 cm., and sides of the base of 4.445 cm. WIthin the hexagonal prism consisted of 6 equilateral triangles are connected…

1st, 2nd, 3rd law and aerodynamic forces had an effect on the rocket. The changes made to the rocket was that more mass was added to the rocket. Two grams of clay was added to the nose cone. The straw is 205 cm body length and there’s 3 fins on the bottom that are 4cm x 2cm. Newton’s 1st law is if an object in rest it will stay in rest unless an outside force acts on the object. Also, if an object in motion will remain in motion, unless an outside force acts on the object. For example,…

Does a track at which a car is on, affect the speed of the car? There are many different kinds of angles for tracks, they can be heading downhill, uphill, or can be straight. Sometimes the angle of the track determines the speed of the car. Potential and kinetic energy will also have an effect of the car's speed. Potential energy is taken in when the car goes up, and kinetic energy is released when the car goes downhill. I think that when the car goes down, it will go faster do to the kinetic…

Luke went to a room where it was completely empty but with Darth Vader. Darth Vader said the force is strong in my, I have it, my daughter has it, my son has it. Then Darth Vader though a light saber (a light saber is a saber that has a beam were the blade is at) Luke catches the light saber and turn it on then Darth Vader pulls out his own light…

School is an extremely stressful time and stress can easily become overbearing for those who strive for excellence in education. Some students, like myself, have part-time jobs while attending school. While upholding such a tight schedule, it can be very difficult to find time to study and do assignments. A job is a requirement so that money is accessible and payments for education are available. School can be expensive and student loans add up, so a job is needed to pay for it. Although…

universal gravitational constant. It is an empirical physical constant denoted by the capitol letter G. The gravitational constant was first used in Newton’s law of universal gravitation [1] which states that any two bodies attract one another with a force which is directly proportional to the product of the two masses, and inversely proportional to the square of the radius measured between the centers of each object(F=(Gm_1 m_2)/r^2 ). [¬¬¬2] The first physical measurement of G was performed…
