Mass

acceleration is equal to velocity divided by the elapsed time. Substituting in the values, acceleration roughly equals 4.6259 m/s^2. With the acceleration, the force of the falling object is calculable using the formula f = ma, or force is equal to the mass times the acceleration. When the values are substituted in, the formula determines the force to be 5.3105…

Name: Institution: Course: Instructor: Date of Submission: Pendulum and spring Abstract In this lab, two systems namely a pendulum and a spring that exhibit simple harmonic motion were studied. The systems were subjected to a mass of known weight and allowed to oscillate. Afterwards, the period of each was determined. In addition, the harmonic properties in the systems and their limiting factors were determined through quantitative calculations. Introduction Any system that exhibits back and…

Using physics, we can calculate the mass of a bolt fired from a blaster used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. First of all, we know that these bolts are not lasers based on two facts: they can be seen from the side and they do not travel at the speed of light. Thus, from there, we have to find their velocity. Rhett Allain calculated that to be about 35 m/s. He did this by finding distance and time of various bolts fired throughout the series, dividing the two measurements, and averaging out all…

the investigation is incorrect and that momentum was not conserved. Results show that the momentum has increased; this is due to an increase in the mass, from 0.85 to 2.85. The velocity decreased from 0.59 to 0.44. Although the velocity decreased the momentum mainly increased because of the increase in mass. Body A and B, together had a greater mass than body A alone. Trial 3 also showed deviation from the previous two trials. The velocity before the collision was 0.26m.s-1 and was 0.7m.s-1…

The smallest black holes are called primordial black holes, which can be as small as an atom with the mass of a large mountain. Scientists think that these black holes most likely formed near the time of the big bang. Another group of black holes are known as stellar black holes, which are categorized as medium sized (10 miles wide, with the mass over 20 times greater than our sun) and are the most commonly found type of black hole. It is theorized that dozens of this type…

arrived there ten minutes early and picked a pew towards the back and started to take notes. The mass started around eight o’clock am and lasted approximately an hour. The service itself was similar to a Roman Catholic mass that I am use to. I was surprised that they were so similar because my thought process was since they are completely different religions than they must have completely different mass styles. Obviously after going I realized that, that way of thinking was wrong and that they…

affected by size and proximity (gravity will have a stronger pull if the object are larger and close together). Gravity also differs from the mass of an object the more mass an object has the more gravity it will exert on the objects around it. When looking at really large masses, like the earth the gravitational pull becomes much greater because of its large mass. The earth's gravitational force pulls everything towards it with the same amount of force (9.807 m/s) which in theory means that…

they make a pass and it is collecting water because it is raining outside and the more water it gets filled up with the more weight and mass/pressure is being put towards the ball think of it as the Toy cart \experiment the more mass it was put on the less it accelerate but with the force it gets from falling down the ramp is like the soccer ball the water is the mass/weight that is being put toward the soccer ball but if you use enough…

conservation of mass in part 5 of the experiment, dissolving sugar in water. The law of conservation mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed by can enter or leave the system. The system’s change in mass was 0.00 grams, resulting in support of this statement. The balance had an uncertainty of 0.05 grams. b. With this experiment, we had a closed environment within the vial, not allowing any particles to come in or out, further explaining why there was no change in mass. The…

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…
