    CHAPTER 5 EXPERIMENTATION 5.1 Spur gear terms and concept Fig. 5.1 Terminology definitions for spur gears The radial distance from the pitch circle to the outside diameter is called as addendum. The radial distance between the pitch circle and the root diameter is called as dedendum. The distance of the arc along the pitch circle from one side of a gear tooth to the other is called as circular thickness. The length of the arc of the pitch circle from one point on a tooth to the same…

    Aim Simple Pendulum Experiment The aim of the experiment was to determine the effects of two factors (the length of a pendulum and the hanging mass of a pendulum) on the period of oscillation of the simple pendulum and to determine the value of g, the acceleration due to gravity. Apparatus Retort stand String Meter ruler Table Standard hex nuts (as suspended mass) Stopwatch Labelled Diagram Illustrating setup Method Experiment A: The simple pendulum was assembled using a retort stand,…

    showing the curve of the free fall state on the block in drop test one. This is showing that as time increases position increase exponentially. We are able to see that this means velocity is increasing which also means that acceleration is increasing as well. We were then able to find the finite differential velocities, which were computed for the by the use of equation 2. We also found the finite differential acceleration using equation 2 found in the theory section. The finite differential…

    nature’s effect on itself for example, how an egg can survive a fall? It combine 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…

    Mastering this technique increases accuracy, gives players a better chance of scoring and ultimately winning. The accuracy and the distance the ball travels is influenced by angular velocity. During an instep kick angular velocity is maximized first by the tight then by the shank and finally the foot. Angular velocity is the rate of angular position or orientation in line segment. A goniometer is used to measure segment angles and joint angles usually in static position but in…

    According to the myth, Solomon launched himself into the air, “cut across the sky,” and “gone home” (Morrison 303). While Solomon achieved total freedom through flight, his escape scarred the family members he left behind, including twenty-one children and his wife, Ryna, who “fell down on the ground…[and] threw her body all around” in grief (Morrison 303). The story of Solomon’s flight, which serves as the motivating factor behind Milkman’s quest, is also the community member’s primary…

    inclined plane and see whether this matches what we would expect. We will roll a ball down a tilted aluminum plate where gravity will accelerate the ball. It then rolls along a level surface (Plexiglas) where it should roll with approximately constant velocity as long as friction can be neglected. • Set up the experiment. Start by placing the large wooden board onto the table, and use the adjustment screws and the level to ensure the plane is level. Place the Plexiglas strip onto the wood…
