REPORT2013JAN-PHISICS Group: LUCA Does mass/weight affect acceleration? Hypothesis: The heavier the car the slower ( the more the mass the slower)‚ the more weight(force) we added the faster. Experiment: Materials: Trolley Elastic cords for accelerating trolley Rod for attaching elastic cord to trolley Ticker-timer with power supply unit Ticker-tape Sellotape Process: 1.Thread a length of ticker-tape through a ticker-timer and attach the end to a trolley. 2.Pull a trolley with a fixed

physics honors Acceleration due to gravity by picket fence method Varun Kumar Pd 7 Saumya Kapoor & Tonia Li 9/26/2014 INTRODUCTION Acceleration is the increase or decrease in velocity. It can also be described as the rate of change in velocity. Acceleration is represented by the formula: . In this experiment we look at a specific type of acceleration‚ Free-Fall. Any object that is being acted upon only by the force of gravity is said to be in a state of free fall. There are two important

Labasan Physics Department‚ De La Salle University St. Joseph Hall Room 404‚ 2401‚ Taft Avenue‚ Manila‚ Philippines cedric_labasan@dlsu.ph Abstract This lab report defines what uniform acceleration is and how to calculate uniform acceleration of a cart rolling down a ramp at different angles and elevations. The experiment will be performed by setting the cart on the track against the end stop and then record this final position on the steel ramp ten times

Using a simple pendulum to find the acceleration due to gravity/g Task 1 Aim: To find the acceleration due to gravity/g Objective: To find the relationship between the length of simple pendulum and the period oscillation Hypothesis: The longer the length of the simple pendulum‚ the longer the period of oscillation will take. Variables: a) Independent- the length of the pendulum; b) Dependent- the time it takes for 20 oscillations; c) Control - the mass of pendulum. Task 2 References

Open-ended Investigation (mass and force) Aim: To show the relationship between Mass‚ the force acting on it‚ and acceleration by gathering data through investigations. Hypothesis: As Mass increases‚ Acceleration Decreases. Therefore‚ Acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. Introduction A force is a push or pull acting upon an object‚ as a result of its interaction with another object. In a state of motion‚ an object experiences different forces which influences its movement. There are many

Conclusion to Motion Lab Kerreon Wright 3rd Period Ms. Gislason The purpose of this Motion Lab was to find the acceleration of a steel marble going down a straight track six different times to figure out how an object’s mass affects acceleration. It doesn’t due to Newton’s second law of motion. There were six different accelerations for each trial and they are: 7.88 m/s squared‚ 6.78 m/s squared‚ 6.07 m/s squared‚ 5.57 m/s squared‚ 4.32 m/s squared‚ and 5.11 m/s squared. It’s possible

ABSTRACT: The lab of one dimensional motion is a series of experiments that deal with different types of motion in a single direction. In the first experiment‚ one dimensional motion of a small cart on an air track is measured in a one photogate system. The acceleration was calculated by the infrared light emitting electrode of the photogate sensing the slacks on the picket fence. The calculation for gravity yielded 9.63 m/s^2‚ which is consistent with the accepted value of 9.8m/s^2. In the

Lab Exercise 2: Acceleration A. Objective This experiment will provide data to calculate the acceleration of a marble as it rolls down an incline plane over measured periods of time. To do this‚ the marble’s velocity will be determined and then its acceleration. 1. What is the distance between two marks in your inclined plan? -50cm 2. What is the angle of your inclined plan with respect the horizontal? -16degrees 3. Newton’s first law says a body at rest will remain at rest unless

The title of the novel is Acceleration. What does it mean to accelerate? How do you think this connects to the story? Accelerate means to speed up. Accelerate could be referring to the train or it could be referring to his increase of emotions. 5. Flip through the novel a) What
