    If you think about it, it’s almost impossible to measure the force that it takes to dribble a basketball, unless you have the right tools. Let’s just think about the basic physics that you should know. In order to dribble a basketball you need to apply enough force for the ball to go from your hand to the floor and back up to your hand. When the ball is in your hand it is holding potential energy. Potential energy is the energy that is about to be transferred into kinetic energy, which is when the

    acceleration of the weights of an Atwood’s Machine, both experimentally and theoretically. We will attempt to verify Newton’s Second law which is a mathematical statement relating force, mass, and acceleration.  Newton’s Second law states that acceleration, a, is directly related to net force, F, and inversely related to mass, m. Naturally this give F=ma.  Using the Atwood’s Machine experimental acceleration data (for 10 different runs with 10 different combinations of masses) will be gathered and compared

    glasses. 12. Lighter Method: The first step was to push a single almond onto the end of a partially straightened paperclip. And then we set the scale to zero, place a weighing dish and the almond/paper clip on the scale to record the total mass (weight). Secondly, we measure out 100 ml of distilled water from the water bottle and pour it into the flask. Place the flask stopper with thermometer inserted into the neck of the flask. The place the neck of the flask through the hole in the

    electric motor, an experiment was performed to test the efficiency of the motor when the mass being lifted was increased in increments of ten grams. As the mass increased by each increment of ten grams, the motor efficiency decreased by an average of 7.439%. Our results were found by using the equation: efficiency=gain in potential differenceelectrical energy used Therefore, this inverse relationship proved mass affects the efficiency of electric motors. Introduction ( Jackson Cates and Aidan Rogers):

    INTRODUCTION : We have a train which consist of coach and engine.. We have assumed that train can travel unidirectional .We have to set the control of the train so that it will have a smooth starting and stopping, along with a uniform-speed ride. The mass of coach and engine is ‘m1’ and ‘m2’. The coach and engine are put together by the spring, that has a stiffness coefficient of k. ‘f ‘is force applied by engine,’ mu’ is the coefficient of rolling friction. In ideal situation of a wheel, we have

    On October 31st, we finally shot up our rockets. Some of the rockets went well as we predicted; some others did not. Our rocket was launched three times in total, and out of all three, only one launch managed to get the parachute out when it was needed. In this report, I am going to write about what relationship the rockets have with Newton’s three laws we have been studying lately. I will connect each of Newton’s three laws with the rocket launches we had. Newton’s first law is the law of inertia

    What’s Next on the Agenda? So how long should you continue to the workout as outlined in this book? How high is up? Seriously, it really is up to you. By now, you are probably enjoying the exercise as you’ve moved through mile markers and can see the improvements. You are just now gaining control; don’t let the weight creep back up on you. Don’t let Bobby Fatz enter your thoughts. Continue to work out and adjust your weight loss goals. Move that goal farther out and strive to do it. Constantly shift

    Incentive Programs And Their Effect On Operations Management In spite of numerous assertions concerning the putative significance, there has been small experimental appraisal of incentive stipulation for workers. Because it is assumed that the interests of workers and their employers are not all the time equal, a grand conceptual literature has accentuated how firms map compensation agreements to persuade employees to work so as to obtain the firm’s desired objectives. Like the piece rates, efficiency

    the leaner group. They also need support and motivation. The teacher has to give enough time and also encourage them to finish activity individually. After finishing this activity the students in the classroom will be able to talk about the units of mass and the benefits of using weighing machines. Considering group2, this class will be planned based on aboriginal strategies and thinking. The activity designed should have direct links to their culture and background. It also helps to get benefit

A micromass particle of light exhibits SHM.The Reason is that it oscillates without any mass changes during its motion. Is the acceleration of a simple harmonic oscillator ever zero? If so, when? What about a damped harmonic? Yes. At the point in the center, the acceleration drops to zero and changes direction when the velocity changes from
