    be used to explain how and why stuff move. These laws that Newton came up with are still used today. Newton’s first law of motion states that “an object in motion will stay in motion, and an object at rest will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force acts on it”. An example of the first law of motion is if you are driving in your car at a very high speed and hit something, like a brick wall or a tree, the car will come to an instant stop, but you will keep moving forward. This is why cars…

    certain forces are required to move the puck, stop the puck, and accelerate the puck. Also, for every force applied on the puck, there is always an equal and opposite reaction. The next few paragraphs will explain the science of air hockey and how it relates to Newton’s laws of motion. The air hockey tables are the start of it all. The air hockey tables make it capable for the puck to glide effortlessly across the surface of the table. There…

    along the floor until a force is applied to the object in order to cause a change. If you want to change the state of an object, you have to apply a force. Net forces cause objects to change their state of motion or accelerate. Newton recognized that his first law needed some additional explanation because most of the motion we observe around us undergoes changes and is the result of one or more applied forces; therefore, Newton wrote a Second Law of Motion which relates force, mass, and…

    basically a two-armed spring that stores mechanical “potential energy” once the string is drawn and pulls back the limbs. After you recoil the cord, you utilize your muscles to exert a force on the string that bends the limbs backward. The quantity of force that your fingers exert on the string once you’ve to force it all the means back is named the “draw weight.” The elastic or spring energy is currently “potential energy” that may be reborn into launching associate arrow after you unleash the…

    the drum. The shoes within the drum have a leading edge and a trailing edge and are designed so that the leading edge comes into contact with the drum before the trailing edge. The rotating force within the drum picks up this leading edge and wraps/pushes it hard into the drum which magnifies the braking force; In conventional rear brake design only one shoe will have this characteristic. Also, the effect on the leading shoe is…

    Particle Deformation and Fragmentation: As compaction force increases, contact area between particles increases, particle deformation starts to occur. Elastic deformation: granules attempt to return to their original shape or form after stress is released. Plastic deformation: granules do not totally recover after stress is released. Fragmentation occurs when compaction force continues to increase Particles fracture, create multiple new surface sites, additional contact points and potential…

    because it’s lighter than the others and doesn’t need as much force applied to it to travel at higher speeds than the others. To further understand my experiment you will have to know about speed, weight and the affects or air resistance. How I came up with this experiment is, knowing that different weighted balls need different amounts of force to hit higher speeds, I thought about what would happen if I applied the same amount of force to four different weighted balls. In this experiment the…

    1. C Why: according to Newton’s first law of motion, an object that is free from all outside forces travels at a constant velocity, covering equal distances in equal times along a straight-line path, C is true. 2. D Why: not matter an object is still or is in motion, the object has inertia all the time. Inertia is a nature/property of any objects. 3. D Why: the ship is moving at a constant speed, which is in a balanced status. For the athlete, it would be likely to do a long jump on ground.…

    Newton’s laws.Newton’s law helps the roller coaster by adding force as well as the car’s gradually gain energy from the rise up the hill to gain more power through the last amount of the ride. I think of it like a car, the brakes will not stop unless the pressure is applied to making the object stop,and that’s what they do on the roller coaster rides. Newton’s second law plays a big role in the roller coaster ride and the second law of force and…
