Speed Force

cart went down a hill the potential energy was converted into kinetic energy that resulted in an increase of speed. When the cart was at its highest peak it had the lowest velocity, but at its lowest point it in turn had the highest velocity. The results from part one also showed that the value for g varies only slightly for different masses.…

radius, mass and speed of an object can affect the centripetal acceleration of the object in uniform motion. Some concepts used to understand this lab are: 1. Acceleration (a=v/t), although velocity is constant, the velocity vector changes in direction which results in acceleration. This proves velocity should affect centripetal acceleration…

Kinetics of a particle: work and energy shows the particle moving when forces are applied to it and produces work and energy. Meanwhile under planar kinetics of a rigid body shows the rigid body on the plane when forces are applied and produces work and energy. There are similarities and differences between both of it. Kinetics of a particle Planar kinetics of a rigid body Similarities - Conservation of energy - Conservation forces and potential energy *gravitational *elastic/plastic -…

If the mass of an object is held constant, increasing force will increase acceleration. If the force on an object remains constant, increasing mass will decrease acceleration” (How Newton’s Laws of Motion Work). Newton equated forces so that he could differentiate the change in momentum per unit time. Momentum is a characteristic involving a moving body using the product of the body’s mass and…

Tennis is a sport where either two or four players hit a ball over a net using racquets. During play, tennis balls can reach speeds up to 263 km/h, but how do they do this (Nichols, 2016)? There are multiple factors to the speed of a tennis ball during play, including the strength of the hit, the racquet, the type and tension of the racquet strings and the location of the ball’s collision with the racquet (Allen, 2010). One of the most important factors, the location of the ball’s collision…

centripetal force. This is a force that acts on a body moving in a circular path and is directed toward the center around which the body is moving. The curves of these loops on rollercoasters resemble the curves of a circle. The coaster is continuously changing its direction while moving through the loop. This change in direction is caused by the presence of unbalanced forces and results in an acceleration. The acceleration of the coaster could be slower downwards and then speed up when…

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 have airbags, to protect…
