Use of force

Background Gravity/Freefall: Every object on the Earth’s surface is pulled towards the center of the earth by the force of Gravity. Gravity causes all objects in Freefall to accelerate downwards at the same rate, regardless of the object’s mass. On Earth, acceleration due to gravity is constant of 9.81m/s^2. Therefore on Earth when air resistance is not present, all objects fall at the same acceleration of 9.81m/s^2. However, on the planet Vela Rani, the value of acceleration due to gravity is…

of the object? Use information from the summary table and/or graph. According to our data, the larger that the slope was, the faster the acceleration of the object was. Although, this was not the same for the 30° angle and the 40° angle. This may have occurred due to an error in recording the data or a bad ticker timer being used. 2. What forces are acting on the object while it is sliding down the slope? When the object is sliding down the slope the gravity component is the force which pulls…

expand the concept to the process involving several constant forces and the process involving variable forces. After introduce the concept of kinetic energy, we will show the transformation between energy and work. Finally we will generalize these concepts to any system going through any process that involves energy and work and elucidate the fundamental concept of energy conservation. 5.1 Work The work that we are talking about is what a force produces during a process of moving an object. Two…

investigate relationship between force, mass, and the motion of objects. 2. How does your rubber band car show Newton’s 1st Law of Motion? The first law states an object will stay at rest until acted upon unbalanced force. The car is at rest until the rubber band is twirl all on the stick. This mean a force has to be added for the rubber-band car to move. 3. How does your rubber band car show Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion? The second law is Force X Mass= Acceleration. The force is the rubber…

(acceleration) is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass. Background Theory: Sir Isaac Newton presented his three laws of motion in the Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis in 1687. The second law, ΣF = ma, states that changes in force will cause an object to accelearate and with this equation, one can figure out how much. It can be rewritten into a = ΣF / m, and thus, it can be seen that acceleration is proportional to net force and inversely proportional…

unless acted upon by an unbalanced force” they make a pass and it is collecting water because it is raining outside and the more water it gets filled up with the more weight and mass/pressure is being put towards the ball think of it as the Toy cart \experiment the more mass it was put on the less it accelerate but with the force it gets from falling down the ramp is like the soccer ball the water is the mass/weight that is being put toward the soccer ball but if you use enough…

In conclusion, we can use Newton’s 3 laws of motion to maximize our rockets’ flight time. For Newton’s first law, our hypothesis stated the following: “We can apply Newton’s first law by minimizing the forces that resist motion. The way we will do this is to make the nose cone as smooth and pointy as possible. If the nose cone is too flat on the end, it will not cut through the air very well. The rocket must cut through the air swiftly, this means that resistance will be at its minimum during…

how much upward force it must exert on you in order to keep you from moving downward toward the earth’s center. As in most scales, the bathroom scale uses a spring to provide this upward support. If you’re stationary, you’re not accelerating, so your downward weight and the upward force from the spring must cancel…

moving on to the next level or learn the better skills from the events. However, the pressure can force people to grow up, it also gives people a lot of stress because the pressure always come with the tough evidences and people sometimes will get defeated by the pressure and they will give up everything or ignore any possibilities that can deal with those difficulties. However, the pressure will force people to bear many stress on them, people shouldn’t go under the pressure and people need to…

on a Roomba. One of the most prominent physics concepts within our project was gravity and/or gravitational potential energy, which could be seen in places such as the inclined planes and the hammer swinging down. Gravity was the downward-pulling force that allowed the energy to be transferred from the top level, to the Roomba on the floor. The toppling rule was another major concept in our project, as it was integral for the dominoes and the inclined planes. When work is put into the machine…
