Pendulum Lab What is the relationship between the length and the period of a pendulum? (Draw a picture)
4
Pendulum Lab What is the relationship between the length and the period of a pendulum? (Draw a picture) Define: Length Period=time for one full swing, forward and back
5
Pendulum Lab What is the relationship between the length and the period of a pendulum? Data: Measure and record a length, measure and record its period Length (cm)Period (s)
6
A few thoughts: – Find many data points – Use the full range – Repeat trials to reduce uncertainty – Control your protocol

Pendulum Lab What is the relationship between the length and the period of a pendulum? Graph it. Independent variable on the bottom
10
Pendulum Lab Do you see the parabola?
11
Pendulum Lab Write a relationship: Length is related to the period squared. ( Period is related to the square root of the length)
12
Pendulum Lab Period is related to the square root of the length Write an equation T=k √ L

Pendulum Lab Period is related to the square root of the length Write a conclusion T=(2.1s/√cm) √ L
15
Measurement Lab Measure carefully. Estimate one digit Include a unit with each value. Show all of your work in the calculations (see pp 18 and 22 of your planner for equations) – Consider significant figures at each step – Include units at each step

At 30 km/h
25
At 75 km/h
26
Velocity --a vector, including a speed and a direction --units are meters/second (m/s) Common speeds: --walking pace ~2 m/s --highway speed ~30 m/s

Kinematics
33
Constant motion 1)A sprinter runs at 10.0 m/s for 3.5 s. How far does he travel? 2)A car travels 1500 m in 45 s. What is its speed? 3)An airplane flies at 240 m/s from Denver to Kansas City, a distance of 1,000,000 m. How long does the flight take?
34
10 m/s for 10 s
35
That’s 100 m total!
36
5 m/s for 20 s
37
That’s also 100 m total!
38
Accelerated motion 1)A sprinter reaches 10.0 m/s in 2.95 s after the start of a race. What is his acceleration? 2)An airplane accelerates from rest to 180 m/s at an acceleration of 6.0 m/s 2. How long does this take-off last? 3)A car accelerates at 3.0 m/s 2 for 12 s. What is its change in speed?
39
10 m/s for 10 s That’s 100 m total!
40
From rest to 20 m/s in 10 s
41
That’s 100 m total!
42
Accelerated motion 1)A sprinter reaches 10.0 m/s in 2.95 s after the start of a race. What is his acceleration? 2)An airplane accelerates from rest to 180 m/s at an acceleration of 6.0 m/s 2. How long does this take-off last? 3)A car accelerates from rest at 3.0 m/s 2 for 12 s. What is its change in speed? What distance is covered in each of these cases?
43
…is dropped from a height of… Two things are given here! 1)v i =0 m/s and 2)a=-9.8 m/s 2
44
…is thrown vertically… 1)a=-9.8 m/s 2 2)The object rises as long as v>0 m/s, then it turns around and falls. 3)Rising time = falling time
45
…is thrown horizontally… 1)v iy =0 m/s 2)a y =-9.8 m/s 2 3)v x is given, and constant 4)Time is the same for both x and y motion
46
…is thrown at an angle of… This is the big one—ballistic motion. 1)Separate motion into x and y components. 2)Calculate time in the air by the v y component 3)Motion in the x direction is constant. 4)Highest point is halfway through the flight 5)Rising and falling times are equal if the height is the same.
