Roll the marble from the top of the plank.
Marble velocity lab.
Students will measure the time from the base of the ruler to measurements beginning with.
A marble is rolled down a ruler to achieve a velocity at the bottom.
Using the kinematic equations you can calculate the marble s initial velocity as it leaves the table.
The marble coming into the collision is called the inbound marble in this laboratory.
Another example is a marble teetering at the top of an inclined plane.
The objective of this lab is to find the x velocity y velocity y distance horizontal distance and the time.
Range and initial velocity of the ball.
Equations 1a and 1b are for the marble s velocity while equations 2a and 2b are for the marble s position.
The momentum of the one marble rolling down the ramp before the collision should be equal to the sum of the momentums of the marbles after the collision.
In groups of 3 begin by picking one person to be the marble starter 1 person as distance marker watcher and one person as timer.
For example challenge students to figure out how long it takes a marble to travel three feet on a ramp.
Help students discover the basics of velocity using marbles and ramps.
Ask one student to release the marble on a ramp while the other student records the length of time it takes the marble to reach a desired mark.
One marble at rest is hit by another marble rolling down the ramp.
The distance is the height of the liquid and the time will be the average time calculated in step 6.
Velocity distance time.
In these equations the subscript i refers to the initial values at launch.
Then we will upload our data to our individual weeblys.
Rulers marble we will construct the ramp and set up the photogate and perform the experiment to get the data.
Other students find the velocity of the marble and determine the kinetic energy of the marble and compare the distance the paper sail travels to the kinetic energy of the marble as it hits the sail.
When the rubber band is released and pours out all that energy it had stored up or when the marble begins to fly down the inclined plane that energy is kinetic energy.
How can you tell which liquids are thicker and which are thinner using the velocity.
Determine how many centimeters the marble rolled in 5 seconds.
Physics 31210 lab 2 study i.
When the initial velocity is separated into x and y components equations 1a 2b give the relationships between the motion variables separately for x and y.
You are going to launch the marble from the same height 10 times and measure its horizontal range.
Record your distance in the data table.
Set up your lab station as follows.
Calculate the average velocity of the marble through the liquid.
