Station 1: Work Calculate the amount of work done when you lift an object from the floor to the top of your tallest group member’s head. –Be sure to use the correct units of measurement. –Record the action of this lab on your iPad. Tools: –Spring scale –Meter stick –iPad Calculator Camera
Station 2: Work Calculate the amount of work done when you pull a string using a combined pulley system. –Make note of the force of just lifting the object vertically. –Be sure to use the correct units of measurement. –Record the action of this lab on your iPad. Tools: –Spring scale –Meter stick –iPad Calculator Camera
Station 3: Incline Plane Vertical— –Calculate the amount of work done when you lift an object from the desk to the top of the ramp. Ramp— –Calculate the amount of work done when you drag an object from the desk using the incline plane to the top of the ramp. ***Your forces and distances will be different for each calculation. Tools: –Spring scale –Meter stick –iPad Calculator Camera
Station 4: Friction Smooth— –Calculate the amount of work done when you drag an object across a smooth desk for a distance. Rough— –Calculate the amount of work done when you drag an object across sandpaper for a distance. ***Your forces and distances will be different for each calculation. Tools: –Spring scale –Meter stick –iPad Calculator Camera
Station 5: Power Calculate the power rating of lifting an object from the floor to the top of your shortest group member’s head. Slow—lift object slowly Fast—lift object quickly –Be sure to use the correct units of measurement. –Record the action of this lab on your iPad. Tools: –Spring scale –Meter stick –iPad Calculator Camera Clock—stopwatch
