    Angela Morrow Baker SCI 155 3 February 2016 Projectile Motion Lab Purpose/Question- The purpose of this lab activity is to explore how mass is effected by the theory of gravity. Hypothesis– Whether the object is rolled slowly, rolled fast, or dropped, they are going to hit the ground in the same amount of time. Data Tables/ Graphs – Place all data tables and graphs in this section. You may create your own data tables or copy and paste them in from the lab report assistant. I used a baseball instead of

    The purpose of this lab was to examine projectile motion and how the horizontal motion is independent of the vertical motion. Data was used to calculate gravity given that the vertical acceleration was only due to g. The data was collected by sending a ball down a ramp that had a horizontal end. At the end of the ramp there was a monitor that recorded the velocity of the ball as left the ramp. Carbon paper was laid on the ground where the ball landed; the spot that was left behind was measured from

    the back foot and transferring onto the front foot with the momentum being transferred from the body to the ball. The sequence and the body segments (rotation of hips, use of quadriceps and shoulders) will enhance the transfer of momentum. - Projectile Motion - A vital aspect of the preparation phase is the angle of where the racket is positioned. This will determine

    Freefall and Projectile Motion Introduction and Objectives This lab experiment was done to determine the characteristics of free fall and projectile motion in Physics. The motion in which a body is thrown or projected is called Projectile motion while free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it, at least initially. In this experiment, a photogate, a chopper, and a Universal Lab Interface were used to determine the free fall motion of the chopper as it was

    Projectile Motion Lab Report Objective: The purpose of this experiment was to find out whether an object, in our case a basketball, accelerated in both the horizontal and vertical directions, or just one direction. The main question that we based this experiment on was, "Does an object accelerate in the x position as well as the y position, or just in one axis?". We hypothesized was that there would be acceleration in both axes because of the motion of the free falling object. Method: The procedure

    Projectile 2 Lab Report Kelsy Ecclesiastre and Sara Lopez AP Physics 1 Period 6 Objective/Purpose: To correctly identify the range of a projectile when fired above the horizontal axis with only a meter stick (i.e. no timer). Background: According to Henderson, speed is how far an object travels during a specific amount of time and does not include the direction. Velocity can be explained as the speed of an object, but also including the direction the object is heading towards (Henderson, 2015). Giancoli

    Starting from the beginning of the year, I understand what I did wrong on the Engineering Presentation. Where I am a little disappointed is where for example, on the 4.2 Linear Motion homework, you gave me a C+ and out of the whole assignment you only crossed out the word "usually". Also, on the 4.2.2 Projectile Motion homework, you gave me an F because I read one of the questions wrong even though I had written the correct answer on the paper and I wrote down for the third question 1) Initial Velocity

    the field of engineering. The motor’s ability to induce motion at a wide range of scales from small toy car motors to large industrial fans allow engineers to apply them to a wide variety of situations. Reverse-engineering or testing Or Testing Of Motors (MOTOЯ), Inc is concerned with the potential applications of three different types of motors; stepper motors, servo motors and DC and assigned a team to test these three motors and report the best use for each one.
