    Accelerometer Lab (20 points)

    ​by Jonah Freuler, Luke Richmond, Jordan Yoon-Buck 
    ​
    Newton’s second law states that the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. That is, F = ma .
    ​
    This lab is designed to explore this relationship between mass and acceleration in systems with multiple objects of multiple weights.

What a fun lab demonstrating Newton's Second Law, pulling bikers 30 meters using a Spring Scale and Ms. Plant's incredibly cool folding bike. Now that we've run the trials, collected and organized the data, and determined the acceleration of each trial, we are ready to report on our findings.

Submit you findings using a Google sheet or other shareable document. Make sure that you allow me to edit your document, so that I can make comments and suggestions while grading it.

I've included a link to the Physics grade rubric, as well as the BDMHS Summary Grade Rubric, so that you can see exactly how to earn all 20 points for this lab.

HW 1.14 Free-Body Diagrams (5 points)

Period 6B
​Assigned: Monday, October 26, 2015

​Free-body diagrams are diagrams used to show the relative magnitude and direction of all forces acting upon an object in a given situation. A free-body diagram is a special example of the vector diagram. The free-body diagram to the left depicts four forces acting upon the object. Objects do not necessarily always have four forces acting upon them. There will be cases in which the number of forces depicted by a free-body diagram will be one, two, or three. There is no hard and fast rule about the number of forces that must be drawn in a free-body diagram. The only rule for drawing free-body diagrams is to depict all the forces that exist for that object in the given situation.

Construct free-body diagrams in your notebook for the various situations described below.
  1. A book is at rest on a tabletop. Diagram the forces acting on the book. 

  2. A girl is suspended motionless from the ceiling by two ropes.
    Diagram the forces acting on the combination of girl and bar. 

  3. An egg is free-falling from a nest in a tree. Neglect air resistance.
    Diagram the forces acting on the egg as it is falling. 

  4. A flying squirrel is gliding (no wing flaps) from a tree to the ground at constant velocity.
    Consider air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the squirrel. 

  5. A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk with a rightward acceleration. Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the book. 

  6. A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk at constant velocity.
    Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the book.

  7. A college student rests a backpack upon his shoulder.
    The pack is suspended motionless by one strap from one shoulder.
    Diagram the vertical forces acting on the backpack.

  8. A skydiver is descending with a constant velocity. Consider air resistance.
    Diagram the forces acting upon the skydiver. 

  9. A force is applied to the right to drag a sled across loosely packed snow with a rightward acceleration. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting upon the sled.

    • Draw a "best-fit" line/curve (a line/curve that seems to fit the data well, some points above, some points below)
    • Run 1: mark a point at 1 second and another at 9 seconds and determine the slope; what does the slope represent?
    • Run 2: mark on the graph what was happening on each "section" of the graph
    • Run 3: mark a point at 1 second and another at 9 seconds and determine the slope; what does the slope represent?
