    The goals of this project are: To define the piecewise function formulas defining the coaster To create a replicated graph of the formulas To determine the maximum height of the coaster as well as the longest drop, in comparison to other great coasters in the world To determine how long the passengers will be in the air, how fast the coaster is going when hitting the “splashy zone”, and where the “splashy zone” should be built To determine the maximum height a passenger can reach during…

    According Peter M. McGinnis (2013) the Newton’s first law is about the linear kinematic and is called law of Inertia. This law states that, ‘everybody continues in it states of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line, unless is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it’ (McGinnis, 2013, p.88). Simpler, the law of Inertia says that if there is no external force acts on a subject, that subject will not move and it will remain in states of rest or if it was moving it will…

    Pendulum Experiment

    INTRODUCTION Can the magnitude of gravity be found by measuring the period in relation to the length of the string of an oscillating pendulum? The aim with this lab was for us to gain a greater understanding in the area of oscillations and simple harmonic motion. Also to determine if the use of a pendulum is a good strategy for measuring the gravity. I found this experiment to be very interesting since I’ve seen and used pendulums a lot before, but I have never really reflected on why they…

    arrangement of bones, ligaments and musculotendinous units that called the shoulder girdle. The primary role of the shoulder girdle is to provide a tremendous range of motion for positioning the upper extremity in space. The shoulder girdle also provides power and support for the upper extremity throughout and at the extremes of the range of motion. (19) The shoulder girdle includes three bones (scapula, clavicle, and proximal humerus), three joints (glenohumeral, acromioclavicular and…

    Experiment 3: Buoyancy Introduction Mass is described as the measure of the amount of matter contained in an object. On the other hand, weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on the mass. Mass is measured in kilograms, while weight is measured in newtons. The density of an object is found by dividing the mass by the volume. Buoyancy is the upward force of a liquid which counters the weight of an immersed object. The theoretical buoyancy of an object can be calculated by using the…

    many amazing scientific and mathematical discoveries. Isaac Newton is known worldwide for many famous discoveries. He was an extremely intelligent man. Some of the most famous of his discoveries included discovering lots of information in optics, motion, mathematics, and a ton of laws and rules for physics that we use almost everyday today. Isaac Newton lived a very intelligent and successful life. He never had any children and never was married either. He spent most of his time in science.…

    Physics has a lot of different concepts to it. Different types of theories and laws. If you really think about it everything has physics. Physics is the nature and knowledge that it encompasses. Everything that has physics, has math. Physics is the language of math. For example, posters tapped against a wall. There are all kinds of forces to that, forces like contact force, Gravity, and normal force. Gravity exist among all objects in the universe. Like in the wall and the posters tapped against…

    Although his discoveries would change the world of science, he did not care the fame that came with them. He was just an intellectual who liked solving challenges. His most important and notable discovery of all, however, was the principles and laws of motion, and his book: "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" could be considered the single most valuable publication ever written to science. This is what formed the basis of modern physics and what will be used and referred to…

    are applied to the balloon. These forces include both tension and friction. Since there is no structure opposing the gravitational force once it is pulled to the right, the balloon begins to accelerate downwards. The tension (caused by the forward motion of the train) allows the balloon to move in the direction in which the tension is…
