Objectives determine the relationship between cart mass and acceleration observe the effects of Newton’s First Law use Newton’s Second Law (F = m(a)) to calculate the force of gravity Part C: Background Acceleration (m/s/s) is any change in an object’s velocity. Velocity is the measure of the speed and direction of an object. Mass (g) is the measure of the amount of matter in an object. According to Newton’s First Law, an object at rest says at rest and an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon
St. Paul’s Co-educational College IBDP Physics Experiment M5 Relationship between the net force and the acceleration of a system Name: Sze Kai Man Carmen Class: 5I Date: 8th November, 2014 Objective To find the relationship between the magnitude of the net force on a system and the resulting acceleration. Apparatus 1 piece of thin string, 1 pulley, 1 trolley, 1 runway, 7 20-g slotted masses (including a hanger), 1 data collecting interface (PASCO Xplorer
satellites launched from earth for aims of scientific research, communication, weather predict, intelligence, etc. classified as man-made satellites. Whether planets, moons or artificial satellite, all satellite’s motion is subject to the same physical laws and mathematical equations. In the 1500s, Nicholas Copernicus of Poland presented the heliocentric theory the belief that the earth revolves around the sun as it rotates on its axis, this aspect of astronomy evolved into an intricate study of planetary

Though collective motion is a relatively new field of study in the word of physics, most of us have observed it and appreciated
makes an apple fall from a tree, or people and animals survive on the surface of this planet that spins without flying off. Newton’s law of gravity is a mathematical description of the way bodies are carefully looked over to attract other bodies, according to other scientific experiments and observations (What is Gravity?). Newton thought and came to an intelligent conclusion that, in fact, the apple and the
In the third part of our experiment, we required to find the maximum height of the projectile when the projectile launcher is at 30° and 60°. We put compute for the distance from the target board to the projectile launcher. The next thing we did is we set-up the projectile launcher
