    Physics Egg Drop Project

    principles. One of them was air resistance, which happened because the egg dropped and it accelerated, while the velocity increased. Then the resistance of the air to the egg box motion also increased, which means the upward force of air resistance balances the downward force of gravity, so the egg box dropped at a constant speed. We attached balloons to the box we made in order for the box to pass through the air while softly landing. We believe that by attaching the balloons it would have less…

    1st, 2nd, 3rd law and aerodynamic forces had an effect on the rocket. The changes made to the rocket was that more mass was added to the rocket. Two grams of clay was added to the nose cone. The straw is 205 cm body length and there’s 3 fins on the bottom that are 4cm x 2cm. Newton’s 1st law is if an object in rest it will stay in rest unless an outside force acts on the object. Also, if an object in motion will remain in motion, unless an outside force acts on the object. For example,…

    throw that fast and accurate because he is bigger than you but there is much more to pitching than just the size of the pitcher. Even though pitching deals with the strength someone has to be a good pitcher you have to understand the physics and the force behind the actual pitch. In pitching you will need to know about the physics the human body even just pitching in general and speed and velocity. Physics play a very important role in baseball especially in the pitching aspect of the game.…

    How do speedometers work? A: A speedometer is a gauge that measures the instantaneous speed of a vehicle. Speedometers became standard in all motor vehicles in 1910 Speedometers were created by the Croatian engineer Josip Belušić in 1855 Uses the rotation of the wheels to work When the cars engine turns over the drive shaft spins to turn the wheels The speedometer cable which is powered by the driveshaft also spins A magnet located inside the speed cup (made of aluminum) of the car spins at the…

    1. How do you adjust the pulling force of the mousetrap? Adjusting the length of the snapper will change the pulling force—making something move as it goes in a certain direction. Making the snapper on the mousetrap longer will decrease the pulling force and a shorter snapper will increase it.…

    The T-41 (i.e., the military version of the Cessna 172) had a "simple mechanical" flight control system using direct mechanical linkages. Direct feedback of forces acting on the control surfaces to the control stick (or yoke) provided a natural feel. The feedback was by the "seat of the pants". The trim system was a mechanical linkage connected directly to a trim control wheel in the cockpit. There is no warning in the T-41 if the trim was set incorrectly. It is the pilot’s responsibility…

    • 5 Pages

    air resistance and snow resistance. A skier minimizes his air resistance (drag) by reducing his projected frontal area. He does this by going into a crouch position, which (along with improving his ability to hold balance) results in a lower drag force. This results in a direction opposite his velocity, slowing him…

    without breaking the egg. In order to make this happen, an investigation must be conducted on the forces acting upon gravity, crumple zone theory, and energy transfer and absorption. The world is made up of matter and energy (Cool Cosmos, 2015). Matter is made up of atoms and molecules and these atoms and molecules are always in constant motion because of energy (Cool Cosmos, 2015). Gravity is a force pulling together all matter. When there is more matter, there is more gravity, so matter…
