    impulse = force X time. In collisions, momentum causes 'Inelastic Collisions ' and 'Elastic Collisions. ' Inelastic occurs when the total kinetic energy changes, but the momentum remains the same. During this type, the momentum is preserved, but the total kinetic energy isn 't, yet objects stick together after the collision. Elastic occurs when the kinetic energy and momentum remains the same and both objects would bounce away from each…

    paper will be on the energy transfer from the bat to the ball, which causes the ball to reverse directions, increase velocity, and create a launch angle to potentially be a homerun. Physics in baseball is very complicated, where there are many things before during and after the swing occur, but the focus will be the moment of impact in order to stay compact. The goal of the batter is to create energy with his bat, and get…

    single energy bands for both electrons and holes. This assumption represents simplification compared to multi-band models that explicitly take into account mixing between, e.g., different valence sub-bands.1 However, this simplified approach still allows us to capture essential trends of core- and shell-size dependences…

    you think will happen? A generalisation that links the independent and dependent variables (you may use and IF THEN statement. Compared to 50 cm, when any of the balls is dropped from 100 cm it will bounce higher because the ball will have more kinetic energy. The ping-pong ball will bounce the highest out of the four balls then the rubber ball, golf ball and tennis ball in order from highest bounce to lowest. Variables - which variables…

    the thriller of going into a dark hole that leads somewhere in the river. Once you're about to enter the dark hole you get your picture taken. Then you are remaining at a CONSTANT SPEED as soon as you enter the dark tunnel you notice the HIGH KINETIC ENERGY and it instantly turns blue as you look around throughout the glass you see all sorts of wildlife and awesome species of fish. As soon as you exit the underwater tunnel you feel the AIR RESISTANCE as you go up to the top of the mountain. Once…

    The swing of a baseball bat, the sound of it gliding through the air, the swoosh sounds as it swings by. Now there is something used for a job that is closely related with the baseball bat but a bit more tactical and is in the law enforcement and requires a police baton, which is used for both law enforcement and self defenseive techniques. The type of police baton should be chosen carefully due to its affordability, length, and the material it is made from so that it’s helping out with the job…

    1. What is the GPS Standard tied to this project? The GPS Standard tied to this project is - S8P3. Students will investigate relationship between force, mass, and the motion of objects. 2. How does your rubber band car show Newton’s 1st Law of Motion? The first law states an object will stay at rest until acted upon unbalanced force. The car is at rest until the rubber band is twirl all on the stick. This mean a force has to be added for the rubber-band car to move. 3. How does your rubber…

    Conclusion The initial hypothesis was rejected. The hypothesis was if the mass of the baseball bat affects the distance the baseball will go, then the heavier the bat is, the further it will travel. The average for the 283.5 gram bat was 49.2 meters. The average distance for the 396.9 gram bat was 52.29 meters. The average distance for the 595.34 gram bat was 50.84 meters. The average distance for the 708.7 gram bat was 45.5 meters. The results mean that the heavier the bat, the less distance…

    In the chapter Kinematics of Particles, we studied about various relations among time, position, velocity and acceleration of a particle. When we have a relation between any two parameters, we can calculate remaining parameters. In Kinetics of Particles, we applied Newton’s second law of motion ƩF = ma. The fundamental concept is when external forces acting on a particle are balanced (zero resultant), the particle will be in equilibrium. But when external forces acting on a particle are not…
