Experiment P09: Acceleration of a Dynamics Cart I (Smart Pulley)
... For this activity, a Smart Pulley will measure the motion of a cart as it is pulled by a string that is attached to an object suspended over the pulley. The Science Workshop program calculates the changing speed of the cart as it moves. A graph of speed and time can give the acceleration of the cart ...

Regular Note
... Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects When the interaction ends, the two objects no longer experience the force ...

Glossary
... Translation: Motion of an object where the path of every point is a straight line. Transmissibility: The principle stating that a force has the same external effect on an object regardless of where it acts along its line of action. ...

Friction
... In 330 BC, the Greek scientist, Aristotle, formulated laws describing how bodies fall though air and water. He argued that the speed with which they fall is proportional to their weight. Thus, if an object is ten times heavier, it should fall ten times faster. Was Aristotle right? How do objects fal ...

Rolling, Torque, and Angular Momentum
... The rolling motion of a wheel is a combination of purely translational and purely rotational motions. Every point on the wheel rotates about the center with angular speed . Every point on the outside edge of the wheel has linear speed vcom. Purely translational motion: every point on the wheel move ...

10 Simple Harmonic Motion
... 10.3 Energy and Simple Harmonic Motion As an object vibrates in harmonic motion, energy is transferred between potential energy and kinetic energy. Consider a mass sitting on a surface of negligible friction and attached to a linear spring. If we stretch a spring from its equilibrium (unstretched) p ...
