Brownian motion

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS: Answer the following Questions: 1. How did changing the angle of the slope affect the acceleration of the object? Use information from the summary table and/or graph. According to our data, the larger that the slope was, the faster the acceleration of the object was. Although, this was not the same for the 30° angle 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…

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 to the floor where it left mark. The mark could be measured horizontal and…

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, a football will move in a straight line at a constant speed until another force affects it. Newton’s 1st law will affect my rocket because the rocket will travel in a straight…

Kansas City Royals pitcher Edinson Volquez is the ace of the Royals pitching staff and he just pitched them to a World Series victory over the New York Mets. You may think that he can only throw that fast and accurate because he is bigger than you but there is much more to pitching than just the size of the pitcher. Even though pitching deals with the strength someone has to be a good pitcher you have to understand the physics and the force behind the actual pitch. In pitching you will need to…

direction of the kick, and as it slows down due to friction with the air, the spinning motion will cause the air on one side to move faster than that on the other side and because of the Magnus effect the ball will then change its direction and will turn either left or right, depending on the side it was kicked. (6)One of the most basic plays in a soccer game is a simple ground pass and Newton's Second Law describes the motion of this pass. A passing kick uses the inside of…

Why am I doing this lab? In this lab we are determining which of the two scientists Aristotle or Galileo has the correct theory in the laws of a falling objects. Aristotle was a physicist who was born in 384 BC and his theory is that when a object falls it keeps a constant velocity. Galileo was also a physicist but born years later in 1564 and his theory is that when an object falls it changes velocity. At the end of this lab we will figure out who's theory is correct. Hypothesis My…

Chapter 4 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?…

When the soccer ball lays down in the middle of the field the object is at rest but when Hugo kicks the ball to juan the object (which is the ball) is at motion with every pass. This demonstrates Newton’s First Law, which states, “An object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force” they make a pass and it is collecting water because it is raining outside and the more water it gets filled up with the more weight and mass/pressure is being put towards the ball think of…

This law of motion stems off of the idea of force. Simply meaning that when you push off of something, the object that you are pushing off of is going to be pushed back due to the energy it takes to move an object. An example of this is hitting a golf ball with a club…

Biomechanics refers to the “study of the action of external and internal forces on the living body, especially on the skeletal system” (Dictionary.com, 2015). By using biomechanics we can examine and find ways to successfully enhance performance, develop exercise programs and modify sporting techniques (Swedan, 2013). This paper will be analyzing and evaluating the athletic event of high jump. Biomechanics will be applied to critically examine the techniques used in high jump and improve upon…
