    hypothesis was "If the forces on each side of the rope are equal, then the sum of forces will be zero. If we can determine the force each person on both sides of the rope, then we can determine if the sum of their forces will equal zero. " which was, correct. I know my hypothesis was correct because of the balanced force. A balanced force is when you have an equal amount of force on each side of an object when force is being exerted on it, it doesn't move because there is no greater force…

    laws are here to understand why and what happens when using forces. Newton's laws have everything to do with forces and motion. There are three laws; the first being every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. The second is the relationship between an object's mass m, its acceleration a, and the applied force F is F = ma in this law the direction of the force vector is the same as the direction of the acceleration…

    there could be an easier way to lift heavy objects without all the ropes, claws and wheels? Well not anymore, ever since the hydraulic crane which uses the force of water and pushes or pulls throughout the pipes and pulls up heavy items. This has been an innovation in the pulley and regular cranes. With something good there is one bad, if a person were to use pipes or steel which one would be more sustainable and last longer? As in all the other cranes this specific one could be made with either…

    flight there are four basic components; thrust, drag, lift, and weight. Newton’s laws and The Bernoulli Principle are the explanation of how everything works. Balance of force is a very important part of it. If the upward force is greater than the gravitational force imposed on an object, the object will go up. If the gravitational force is greater, then the object will go down or remain on the ground. World War I was the first time that airplanes were used on a large scale. At the start of…

    able to exert a normal force on the balloon which equals the force due to gravity. This allows the balloon to be held up until there is a new force applied to it horizontally. The train begins to move forward and creates more tension on the string which is tied to both the balloon and the train. Once the train begins to move, more forces are applied to the balloon. These forces include both tension and friction. Since there is no structure opposing the gravitational force once it is pulled to…

    break them down or injury whoever was on the other side. Dead bodies were also launched over these walls in aim of scaring one 's enemy who was on the other side (Farrell, 2006). The trebuchet uses Isaac Newton’s laws which are; The greater the mass of the object being accelerated the greater the amount of force needed to accelerate the object and (Pearson science ,2012). The motion of the projectile launched is parabolic and is influenced by factors such as the mass of the counter weight, the…

    remain at rest or in a uniform motion, unless an external force acts on it. This is basically also the definition for inertia. In other words, the state of motion of an object will not change unless there’s an external force that acts to change this motion. Therefore, velocity is either zero, or remains constant. Newton’s second law: This describes the change in velocity of an object when acted upon by an external force. Thus, the force exerted on an object is equal to the constant mass of the…

    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 acceleration and furthermore determine the net force acting on the object. With several calculations and graphs to illustrate our results, we shall strengthen implications of the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. Introduction Mass…

    assumed to exist in the sticking and sliding regions, respectively[42]. Most analyses have applied classical friction situation following Coulomb’s laws which is based on coefficient of friction [e.g., [55], [62]]. Frictional sliding force F is proportional to the force N normal to the interface at which sliding is taking place. This model can be expressed by: However, the above equation fails to give accurate prediction in high normal stress conditions. Several studies applied modified Coulomb…
