Gr. 11 Physics Energy
... The gravitational energy (Eg) of an object of mass, m, located at a vertical position, y, above the vertical origin is given by the expression, Eg =mgy. The vertical origin is a vertical position that we choose to help us compare gravitational energies. The gravitational energy of an object at the v ...

... the rod, L, the distance the ball travels is greater than L from the point of view of an external observer watching the tube rotate. Imagine the tube is transparent as you observe the path of the ball from a stationary reference point. You would observe the ball traveling a curved path from A to B, ...

Acceleration
... period in which you are asked to find the distance traveled in the nth second. • Ex. Object has constant acceleration for 5 s, changes acceleration for the next 5 s. Determine the distance traveled during the 8th second. – You must find the distance traveled from t = 7 s to t = 8 s. – Determine the ...

Static and Kinetic Friction
... you are standing up then the friction between the floor and your shoes is preventing you from slipping. Frictional forces can be found between any two bodies that are in contact with each other. In this experiment we will study the concept of friction between a wooden block and a sliding surface, wh ...

Levers
... A class 3 lever does not have the mechanical advantage of class-one levers and class-two levers, so examples are less common. The effort and the load are both on the same side of the fulcrum, but the effort is closer to the fulcrum than the load, so more force is put in the effort than is applied to ...

Abstract.
... Yale in the I 960s was that all gravitational interactions between bodies in all dynamical systems had to be taken as instantaneous. This seemed unacceptable on two counts. In the first place, it seemed to be a form of "action at a distance". Perhaps no one has so elegantly expressed the objection t ...

Hunting oscillation
Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
