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…
The more mass an object has, the more force it will need to move. The lighter an object is, the less force you will need to move. The puck has very little inertia so that it could be easily moved, have less air resistance, and have less friction against the surface of the air hockey table. The more mass an object has, the more weight being pulled down by gravity resulting in more friction. Also, an object…
detail. The dead spot, although not a sweet spot, is where, upon collision with a tennis ball, the effective mass of the racquet is equal to the mass of the tennis ball (Cross, Lindsey & Brody, n.d.). This comes from Newton’s second law, F = ma, which can be rearranged to m = F/a. When this happens, the ball loses all its momentum. Think of a collision between two balls of the same mass, one at rest. The ball at rest gains all the energy from the incident ball, leaving the incident…
Pope Marcellus Mass: Kyrie, by Palestrina or Missa Papae Marcelli is believed to be written in 1562, this composition is a Renaissance Style Polyphonic mass. It is very much so a Renaissance piece, it was made in 1562 towards the latter end of the Renaissance period, but still very much before the end which around 1600, the piece had four or more melodic fragments performed simultaneously, which is known as Polyphony, a staple of the Renaissance period. Throughout the piece there are no…
Introduction: tittle: The bouncing ball efficiency when bouncing a ball at different heights Energy cannot be destroyed or created it can only be transferred in to different types of energy like kinetic, heat, light, electrical, chemical, elastic potential, gravitational potential, thermal, nuclear and sound energy. When calculating energy, you would work in measurement like joules, kilojoules and millijoules. There are many types of energy like kinetic energy which is when a object is moving…

Josquin des Drez(ca.1440-1521), a legendary fame, remains a historical figure for his unusual musical talent. The administrative records that depicts him as a legend of music are few or let’s say rare to found with certainty. But, some of the remains gives us the outline of his contributions in the field of music during renaissance. During his period, the quality of his music was hardly appreciated than the music of his contemporaries as a result of which we can now only find the works of…
Proportionality and Newton’s Second Law of Motion Abstract How does increasing the mass of an object affect its acceleration? Is acceleration dependent of the mass of an object? How do they relate? Defining and testing Newton’s second law of motion familiarizes us with this relationship. In this experiment, we use the mass of an object as an independent variable to come to a conclusion about force and acceleration. By increasing the mass of an object at an incline, one can observe the change in…
Faith in Action Paper I spent my 15 faith service hours volunteering for Feed My Starving Children and I helped the maintenance crew around the school. While I did this I made new friends and grew as a person as well as in my faith. I probably spent about 8 or more of my service hours volunteering for Feed My Starving Children. Before when I was younger, I would go in because my older sister needed service hours and scoop some veggies and powder into a funnel for an hour and a half. Then…
A persons mind is unique. Every person has his or her own way of thinking and learning. Not to mention, people come from different origins, which leads to some people having a higher vocabulary. Why is all this important in physics? In the article, “Talking to Learn Physics and Learning to Talk Physics” it states, “the development of physics discourse and conceptual understanding are different processes that depend upon one another for successful physics learning (Harlow, Otero 1).” This article…
