A diver of mass 75 kg jumps upward off a diving board and into the water. Question 2 A diver of mass 75 kg jumps upward off a diving board and into the water. The diving board is 2 m above the water. a. When the diver jumps, she has a speed of 2.5 m/s. […]
Estimate your travel costs and to calculate your average speed and the speed of last year’s winner Which category? Choose your boat Your proposal will also discuss how likely it is that you’ll win the race. In Part II, you’ll calculate your average race speed for the type of boat you’ve chosen. 1. Which boat […]
Florida Institute of Technology ©2020 by J. Gering 10 – 1 Experiment 10 Newton’s Second Law for Rotation Questions . How do we give something a constant angular acceleration? How can we measure this angular acceleration? What are the directions of an object’s velocity and acceleration vectors when it is subject to non-uniform circular motion? […]
Simple Harmonic Motion Often time in nature, when an object undergoes a small displacement from equilibrium position, it undergoes oscillatory motion about that equilibrium position; such behavior is called harmonic motion. Examples of harmonic motion include springs, pendula, and even circular motion. When no damping forces affect the oscillating object, the behavior is know as […]
Time Period of a Simple Pendulum Link for online lab: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/pendulum-lab OBJECTIVES: Investigate the factors affecting time period of a simple pendulum. Determine gravitational field strength at a location by swinging a simple pendulum and performing curve fitting on linearized data. PROCEDURE: Click on the Intro window. Click on Stopwatch. Make sure that speed is […]

Go to https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/hookes-law Part 1: Click on Intro. ⦁ Set the spring constant to 200N/m. Click in all of the check boxes to show all vectors and values. Apply a force of 60 N by dragging the red plunger or the red slider. What are the forces? What is the displacement? Use Hooke’s Law to […]
the Legendre transform g of a function f is: g(m) = f(x(m))- m • x(m) mit x(m) = (r)-1(m). Show that h(y) := f(-y) is f Legendre-transformed twice. This demonstrates that no information is lost during the Legendre trans-formation. Apply the Legendre transformation to the Entropy S as a function of E, specifically for the […]
The current-carrying wire loop in the figure on the left lies all in one plane and consists of a semicircle of radius 20 cm, a smaller semicircle with the same center, and two radial lengths. The smaller semicircle is rotated out of that plane by angle θ, until it is perpendicular to the plane. The […]
