    important. F=m(dv/dt)(Quote) F=ma Force = Mass x Acceleration (Newtons) With the use of this equation he proved that objects that are heavier fall at the same rate towards earth as objects that are lighter because the earth pulls them down with the same force. To put it in perspective a car and a feather would fall at the same universal rate of 9.8m/s^2 even though one is much heavier. Newton also figured out that the moon is held to the earth by the same force that pulls an apple off a tree…

    you ever heard the term “Straight as an arrow”? Well, this isn’t exactly accurate. Arrows don’t exactly fly straight, they twist and bend as they fly. When you draw back and release your bowstring the large force of kinetic energy stored in the limbs gets transferred into the arrow and this force causes the spine of the arrow to start bending as it gets pushed forward. The archer’s paradox is this bending of the arrow around the bow as it is being loosed before it straightens out. At the moment…

    Section: General Physic Lab 3 Date: 10/03/2017 Purpose The goal of this experiment was to learn how to apply computerized instruments in physics. In addition, this experiment aimed at enhancing practice on how to use three equipment in the lab: the rotary motion sensor, high resolution force sensor, and motion sensor. Further, this experiment sought to clarify the circumstances under which the instruments fail to comply with expectations. Results/Data Part 1: The Motion Sensor Motion…

    kept a plane up, then flipping a plane over would send the plane into a dive and crash. The angle of the wing lets the plane fly upside down. Wing aspect ratio affects the maneuverability of the aircraft. For a plane to have more stability, engineers use long and narrow wings. This is when an aircraft has a high aspect ratio. This also has low maneuverability and will be harder to control. Low aspect ratio, or short, wide wings, has more maneuverability but has less…

    Problem: Is there a relationship between the mass of an object and the force of static friction and force of kinetic friction of that object? If so, what type of relationship is there? Background: Friction is a type of force that is created when two surfaces move across one another. Static friction is friction between two or more solid objects that are not moving relative to one another. Kinetic friction is the amount of friction between two objects that are moving relative to each other.…

    look at what factors drive the change process forward and what factors resist the change. Lewin’s force field analysis provides a method for evaluating these driving forces and resisting forces (Lindauer, 2015). This method identifies these driving forces and resisting forces and helps leaders develop methods for encouraging and promoting the driving forces while minimizing or reducing the resisting forces to change initiatives. The MSPAC identified the need for change nearly a decade ago. The…

    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…
