Linear Motion Lab Report
This lab was designed to find the moment of inertia needed for the rotational inertia apparatus to set it in motion. By attaching different masses to a string which set the apparatus in motion, the change of angular speed over time was first measured using the iPhone app PhyPhox. Subsequently the angular acceleration was calculated. The more masses were added the faster the system rotated. For each setting the torque was calculated by multiplying the mass, gravitational acceleration and the radius together. Now it was possible to plot a graph Torque vs. angular acceleration where the slope represents the Inertia. In this case it turned out to be 0.0025 N.

The purpose of this paper was to find out the effect that different masses

Newton’s three Laws of Motion
The First Law of Motion states, “A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.” This simply means that things cannot start, stop, or change direction all by themselves. It takes some force acting on them from the outside to cause such a change. This property of massive bodies to resist changes in their state of motion is sometimes called inertia.
The Second Law of Motion describes what happens to a massive body when it is acted upon by an external force. It states, “The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration.” This is written in mathematical form as F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.
Applying the second law of motion for rotation, the angular acceleration would be proportional to the net torque and inversely proportional to the moment of inertia.
Unit 3 Lab Exercise Analysis
589 Words | 3 PagesI can interpret that if a snail is presented with both leaves then it will only eat the plain leaves and not the striped leaves. It doesn’t eat the striped ones because it knows that a clover that can produce cyanide is striped and therefore poisonous, so it tends to stay away from it. That’s why the snail didn’t eat the clover the plain leaf that was painted with white stripes. From the wild it knows not to eat striped leaves. It’s pretty much like a visual warning.
Hastings Point Lab Report
1610 Words | 7 PagesIntroduction For two days, on the 14th and 15th of April, a field excursion to Hastings Point, New South Wales was conducted. At Hastings Point, topography, abiotic factors and organism distribution were measured and recorded, with the aim of drawing links between the abiotic factors of two ecosystems (rocky shore and sand dunes), the organisms which live in them, and the adaptations they have developed to cope with these conditions. Within these two ecosystems, multiple zones were identified and recorded, and this report also aims to identify the factors and organisms associated with each zone. Lastly, using data and observations from the past, predictions for the future of the rock pool ecosystem were made.
Galaxies Lab Report
636 Words | 3 PagesIn the first activity, I determined the circumference and tangential speed of points on spinning DVDs to demonstrate the rotation curve of a rigid body. For instance, the DVD with a radius of 4 has a circumference of 25.13 cm and a tangential speed of 1933.08 cm per second. During the activity, I noticed as the radius increased, the tangential speed also increased. I also noticed the shape of the rigid body rotation curve was linear.
Unit 1 Assignment 1 Rotation
460 Words | 2 PagesWhat Kayden and I did first is get on EV3 robot out and connect it to bluetooth, after that we did that we started to think about how we were going to find out how many rotations that we were going to need to get it from start to finish. So, we got a ruler and since we already knew one rotation was equal to 7 inches we guesstimate that it would be about 5 rotations. When we tried it is was still a little short of its goal, so we added 0.5 to it and it barely went over its goal. Finally we took away 0.08 and tried it and it landed exactly on its target. So our final solution was 5.42 rotations at 27% would get us from the start to the finish exactly.

618 Words | 3 PagesThis was made to gather and testing ideas. Another famous scientist named Isaac Newton, discovered the three laws of motion. The 1st law deals with “an object at rest tends to stay at rest, and an object in motion tends to stay in motion, with the same direction and speed.” (studios). “The 2nd law of motion deal with the second law says that the acceleration of an object produced by a net (total) applied force is directly related to the magnitude of the force.”
The Science And Magic Of Lindy Hop Summary
803 Words | 4 PagesIn his article titled “The Science and Magic of Lindy Hop,” Andy Connelly, a swing dance instructor from the University of York, draws connections between the force of tension in social dancing and Newton’s Laws of Motion. Newton’s First Law of Motion states that “an object remains at rest, or in uniform motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change by an externally imposed force.” A swing out, an 8-count move, pictured in Figure ____, is an example of Newton’s First law of motion. After counts 7 and 8, the follow (pink) is standing apart from the lead (blue), waiting for the lead’s tension of pulling the follow in on counts 1 and 2. This is the “change by an external force” caused by the lead taking a rock step as shown in Figure _____ that brings the follow into a closed position, pictured on counts 3 and 4, to the lead.

2403 Words | 10 PagesThe measured tensions were normalized relative to the maximum tension and the lengths were normalized relative to the length at which maximum force was generated (Ln = 29 mm). The measured data and expected data were plotted together (Figure 3). Correlation between measured and expected tensions at the same normalized lengths was determined for the three expected segments of the length-tension relationship.2,3,4 This was done using piecewise linear regression and yielded r2isometric = 0.956033. The fitted curve for the isotonic experiment resulted in r2isotonic = 0.960557. The F0 was 19.5 N for the fit and 6.35 N for the guess.

186 Words | 1 PagesMs. Nugent, I am e-mailing in reference to Jailin's Story Motions Graph assignment and Motion Test. I know that the quarter is ending and I have done very well with keeping up with his assignments but the Story Motion Graph I must have missed. Is there any way he can spend some time making this up or even e-mail it to you this weekend. I am also concern about his Motion Test grade that was just placed in.
An Informative Essay: The Sport Of Cheerleading
1898 Words | 8 PagesTo start with, we should make sense of what these words mean. Gravity: the power that makes something tumble to the ground (at 9.8 m/s²) Newton 's Laws of Motion: three laws that state mechanics portraying the movement of a body. The main law is the law of latency: a body stays very still unless followed up on by an outer power. The second law expresses that a body in movement stays in movement unless followed up on by an outside power. Newton 's third and last law is about how for each activity, there is an equivalent and inverse response.
Bernoulli's Theorem Essay
734 Words | 3 PagesBernoulli’s theorem is a special application of the laws of motion and energy. The principle equation describes the pressure measured at any point in a fluid, which can be a gas or a liquid, to the density and the velocity of the specified flow. The theorem can be explained by the means of imagining a particle in a cylindrical pipe. If the pressure on both sides of the particle in the pipe is equal, the particle will be stationary and in equilibrium.
