An object is in free fall. At one instant, it is traveling at 46 m/s. Exactly 3.7 s later, what is its speed?
Physics An object is in free fall. At one instant, it is traveling at 46 m/s. Exactly 3.7 s later, what is its speed? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s? Answer in units of m/s.
Discuss the sources of uncertainty in your measurement.
Physics Newton’s second law 1. How does the acceleration obtained from the experiment compare with the value you found using Equation 6 (Use percentage error and chi-squared method to compare) 2. Report the acceleration obtained from your experiment along with its error. 3. Report the initial velocity of the glider obtained from your experiment along […]
Discuss what is physics? Is it consistent with your experiences with physics to date, and why?
You must write your solutions by hand, cite all your references, and show all your calculations. [a] Watch the video https://youtube.com/watch?v=GOuZkYDQjpc (Dianna’s Intro Physics Class: Trailer). As presented in this video, what is physics? Is it consistent with your experiences with physics to date, and why? (Your answers should total 30-50 words.) [b] Watch the […]
Identify a current problem in physics by searching for news articles and current events.
Identify a current problem in physics by searching for news articles and current events. One reputable source of news in physics is Phys.org. Choose one article, and in two pages, describe how the scientific method is being used to solve the problem mentioned in the article. Identify the initial observations that identified the problem, the […]
Discuss how physics is used in a specific profession of your choice.
In a two-page paper, research how physics is used in a specific profession of your choice. You should identify two physics principles used in the profession as well as explain, in detail, how they are used.

Determine the change in volume and pressure in pneumatic systems. Using Bernoulli’s Equation, calculate values at stationary incompressible flow.
Parameters of Pneumatic and Hydraulic Systems – Determine the change in volume and pressure in pneumatic systems. Using Bernoulli’s Equation, calculate values at stationary incompressible flow.
Create separate graphs for position vs. time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time. For each of these graphs, there should be the x-component and the y-component on the same set of axes.
In this lab, you will investigate the motion of an object that is moving in a plane, but not in a straight line. Create a short video of an object moving in two dimensions. You will need at least 30 frames of the object moving. Convert your video to a format LoggerPro can use. When […]
