atmosphere is subjected to two external forces. The first force is the gravitational force‚ expressed as the weight of the object. The weight equation which is weight (W) = mass (M) x gravitational acceleration (A) which is 9.8 meters per square second on the surface of the earth. The gravitational acceleration decreases with the square of the distance from the center of the earth. If the object were falling in a vacuum‚ this would be the only force acting on the object. But in the atmosphere‚ the

From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia This article is about pendulums. For other uses‚ see Pendulum (disambiguation). "Simple gravity pendulum" model assumes no friction or air resistance. | An animation of a pendulum showing the velocity and acceleration vectors (v and a). | | A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.[1] When a pendulum is displaced from its restingequilibrium position‚ it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it

Design Rationale It is known that the acceleration due to gravity (or g) is approximately 9.8m/s2 [down] or -9.8m/s2 [up]. What we are trying to do is design an experiment to measure and confirm this value. Our plan was to drop an object from a reasonable height and use a ticker tape timer to measure the amount of time and distance travelled between each time. The weight of the object used would have to be heavy enough that it would not be affected by air resistance. For example‚ you shouldn’t use

Video "The Law of Falling Bodies" The answers are in red Questions: 1. The video introduces one of the "deepest mysteries in all of physics." The deepest mystery in all of physics is that in a vacuum all bodies fall with the same constant acceleration. 2. In the next sequence‚ we see a person diving from a board and a leaf falling from a tree. It is stated that the speed of a falling body increases as it falls. If the statement concerning falling bodies is true‚ then why does the leaf seem

Record in your lab book. Repeat the process 3 times. Before each trial‚ add weight to the car by taping a penny to the car. Compare the graphs from each trial. What do you notice about the acceleration of the cars? Record your observation in your lab book. In your observation‚ discuss how this corresponds
