    is about police brutality and whether or not they should be allowed to use the force of a stun-gun, chokehold, and baton. It also discusses the topic on when enough is enough - concerning overkills and excessive choke holds. They have the power to get way with brutally murdering someone just because their job involves that. With that power comes great responsibility of knowing when and where to use what weapon and when not to use a weapon at all. These violent acts have been happening for years,…

    system, not the Earth. Kepler develops the three laws of planetary motion. Galileo discovers that the natural state of an object is either at rest or moving with a constant speed, for as long as no unbalanced forces are acting on the object. Galileo reasons that if friction and other forces were balanced, an object would continue along at constant speed. Galileo understands the concept of acceleration and motion of objects acted upon by…

    be used to explain how and why stuff move. These laws that Newton came up with are still used today. Newton’s first law of motion states that “an object in motion will stay in motion, and an object at rest will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force acts on it”. An example of the first law of motion is if you are driving in your car at a very high speed and hit something, like a brick wall or a tree, the car will come to an instant stop, but you will keep moving forward. This is why cars…

    friction force, along with the acceleration of the metal block. Part two, the bounce test, is attaching the metal block to the spring, pushing the block down and releasing it. We would use these data to calculate the damping factor and the spring constant. To accomplish the different experiments we needed the use of a Linear Variable Differential Transformer…

    Objective: The lab we completed today was “Equilibrium of coplanar forces”. The objectives of todays lab was to study the composition and equilibrium as well as study the rectangular resolution and equilibrium of coplanar forces. Principles being examined: The main principle being examined in this experiment is the fact that several forces that line on a plane and pass through the same point can be balanced by a single force that is passing through the same point. We do this by finding the…

    duration of the vault and will stay in motion until an outside force acts upon them. After they reach the horse, they will stay in the air until that outside force acts upon them. That force is known as none other than gravity (-9.8 m/s2 ). Newton’s Second Law fits very close to the first law. It tells us that mass and acceleration are directly proportional in regards to force. This is known as the formula, F=(m)(a), which is force equals mass times acceleration. The more mass and acceleration…
