Alixandria Zeidel Physics 131 – section LZ Hasbrouck 208 10/01/14 Forces and Newton’s 2nd law Abstract The purpose of this lab was to learn about how force influences acceleration. A hanging mass is tied to a frictionless glider and the mass is dropped. While the glider is being pulled by the mass it is possible to measure to tension force on the rope between the two objects. A motion sensor graphs the movement of the system and from the slope it is possible to calculate the acceleration of both

Homework Introduction to Aerodynamics Name: Natalie Hume 1. In your opinion what has been the most important development/invention in the history of aerodynamics and why? I feel that I could pick something very complex and technical for this question. But I think in terms of science and simplicity I pick Bernoulli’s principle. This principle laid the foundation for the development of aerodynamics. It allowed for people to understand the relationship between pressure and velocity and continue

Fruit Fly Genetics Lab Kelly Hernandez 5/31/14 Drosophila melanogaster is a small‚ common fly found near unripe and rotted fruit. It has been in use for over a century to study genetics. Thomas Hunt Morgan was the best biologist studying Drosophila early in the 1900’s. Morgan was the first to discover sex-linkage and genetic recombination‚ which placed the small fly in the forefront of genetic research. Scientists have used Drosophila for many reasons. For one they are very easy to maintain‚

Numerous flight data has been collected on a Piper Saratoga while flying in different configurations. The data focuses on the coefficient of lift and the coefficient of drag while the aircraft is pitched at various angles of attack. This paper examines the research process and the data that was collected in order to determine the lift to drag ratio for various angles of attack. Objectives To experimentally determine both the coefficient of lift 〖(C〗_L) and the coefficient of drag (C_D) of a Piper

Background Theory: Helicopters are used in everyday life‚ from transportation to being used for military operations; helicopters are a very diverse and technologically advanced machine. However‚ there are many external and internal variables that affect the time of flight. A simple experiment that can be used to determine these variables is through the use of creating and testing a paper helicopter. As the paper helicopter falls‚ there are various external forces that act upon it. Gravity produces

CHAPTER 3: AERODYNAMICS AND AIRFOILS “Isn’t it astonishing that all these secrets have been preserved for so many years just so that we could discover them!!” Orville Wright 3.1 DESIGN MOTIVATION The Physics of Aerodynamic Forces Figure 3.1 shows a cross section view of an aircraft wing. A wing cross section like this is called an airfoil. Lines drawn above and below the airfoil indicate how the air flows around it. The shape of the airfoil and the pattern of airflow around
