Lab Report 1. Introduction 1.1 Background Information: Newton’s second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object depends on two variables: the net force acting on the object and mass. The acceleration of an object is dependent directly upon the net force acting on the object, and inversely to the mass of the object. Acceleration is the total rate at which an object changes its velocity. However net force is the vector total of forces acting on a...

Introduction Since its first opening in Paris on July 8, 1817, the rollercoaster remains to be the prime attraction of every modern theme park. The rollercoaster ride focuses on exposing the riders to a variety of magnitudes of forces, at different times, without compromising on the health and safety of the riders. To give maximum enjoyment whilst ensuring safety, manufacturers have to study and understand the different forces and conditions riders are exposed to while in the ride. This paper...

1 Introduction I have always been interested in the physics and math behind rocketry and aviation. Aeronautical engineering is my dream job, making it an obvious idea to do some topic related to the same. Recently, I visited the Kennedy Space Centre where I saw the Saturn V rocket, the rocket that was used for all the Apollo missions. While I was bewildered by its very size and scale, what intrigued me the most was haw much of the mass/...

Sir Isaac Newton was an English physician from the 17th century, and he is renowned throughout the modern world for the 3 laws of motion that he created. These have been accepted in modern society as factual information, due to modern research, even though he was born in 1642. Throughout his life he created his 3 laws. His first Law states “that an object at rest but an object with motion would keep at the same speed unless acted upon...

In 1687 Isaac Newton presented the three laws of motion. These laws created a massive advancement into the Age of Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution. The laws were taken very seriously and not many questioned them, since it was science. Fast forward to the modern day, behavioural laws have been introduced and people question and go up against every aspect of it. Like Isaac Newton’s laws, there are also three laws of human behaviour. These laws, although quite similar, have...

The roller coaster has its beginning in Russia, where people applied in different ways during the 1600’s. People crafted slides made out of wood and went to the hills with sand where it could help them slowdown when they reach the downhill. This topic discussed in the essay is all about how these laws of physics apply to its design and the action of the roller coaster. Nowadays people in developed countries develop a mentality that if an entertainment park...

Abstract The topic of this paper that I want to specifically talk about is Newton’s Second Law of Motion and how his theory would show how the forms of mass, acceleration, and force would all coexists amongst each other whether that be finding the acceleration of an object on a particular surface or to measure the applied force on the object after each trial in the experiment. The question of this lab experiment is to find that the mathematical equation...

Physics is the study of how the universe works, it lays the foundation for the description of the cause and effect objects have on one another. The consequences forces have upon impact with objects lay the foundation for the interaction of forces in the physical world. Forces are vector quantities they carry a magnitude as well as a direction, when forces balance each other out they are said to be in equilibrium meaning the vector sum of these forces add...

Many people in this world really underestimate how physics contributes to our daily lives whether be walking, talking, or any other action. Many equations, graphs, and a little bit of math help us understand what goes on behind the curtain. Physics also have shared relations with science and combining those physics to other types of studies. To understand physics, we need to discuss the laws of motion which are called the Newton’s Laws of Motion, there are only three. According...
