    Objective: The purpose of this lab was to examine Newton 's second law by observing the relationship between force and acceleration in a friction-free environment and to illustrate the concept of mass. The experiment was conducted in such a way to reduce friction. In order to simulate this environment an air-cushioned track was set-up for the glider to ride on a pocket of air without being in contact with the metal track. In addition, this glider will have masses attached to it as well as a…

    assumed to exist in the sticking and sliding regions, respectively[42]. Most analyses have applied classical friction situation following Coulomb’s laws which is based on coefficient of friction [e.g., [55], [62]]. Frictional sliding force F is proportional to the force N normal to the interface at which sliding is taking place. This model can be expressed by: However, the above equation fails to give accurate prediction in high normal stress conditions. Several studies applied modified Coulomb…

    fluctuate in process of fatigue failure analysis. The last objective is using the stresses model to find the force is applied on the crank shaft. Sample Calculation: For collecting the data, a bicycle crank shaft is pedaled. In the sample calculation, a 1N for a crank angle of θ= 90 degree will be calculated. Strain Gage 2 Pedal Force = 1 N θ= 90 degree…

    The same rules apply, gravity is pushing the marcher down and the ground is pushing back. Same with friction, friction keeps the movement steady and momentum determining how fast and how far the movement will take the marcher. This time there is force. As stated, instead of a lift there is a push of the foot giving more momentum to the movement. This can make the marcher go farther or faster but it does depend on how much push you give. You will receive an equal and opposite push back from the…

    of air resistance acting on you due to friction and your direction. During this part, you experience high G-forces acting on you due to your position. Once you are down the mountain, you are lifted towards a loop. In this loop, you are experiencing a centripetal force, or the force an object moving along a circular path to move toward the center of the path. You experience a large g-force in this loop due to your position upside down. When nearing the end of the loop, you experience projectile…

    the effect of the personalized mus- cle geometry on the force generation in the lower limb. DistMo defines the model personalized with the PA ob- tained with the straight line approach, while CenMo describes the model personalized with the PA obtained with the centroid line approach. GenMo represents the model that used the generic values of the PA from OpenSim (PARF = 13.9◦, PAV I = 4.5◦, PAV L = 18.4◦, PAV M = 29.6◦). The inter-model force and moment variations between GenMo, DistMo, and CenMo…

    In physics, net force is the overall force acting on an object. This equation is written as follows: Fnet = Fthrust-Fg. The Fthrustis the force which makes an object move. In the case of the bottle rocket, the fuel being ejected from the rocket’s nozzle is thrusting the rocket into flight. In order to calculate Fnet, Fthrust & Fgmust…

    Background Knowledge The question for this experiment is, Does the angle of an airplane wing affect the average rate of descent of the plane while gliding? So, the thing that is being tested is if the angle of an airplane wing, which determines the average rate of descent. In this experiment, the average rate of descent will be found by dividing the distance the plane traveled by the time it took the plane to land. First, how planes fly needs to be understood. Airplanes fly because the wings…
