Procedure This lab has 4 parts - all are required for completion. Each part should be quick and easy to perform. Part 1. A simple chan Part 1 performs a simple drop experiment to confirm that falling objects, neglecting air resistance, will hit the ground at the same time regardless of their mass. Requirements Documentation and a short summary of your observations. A picture of your setup Steps Obtain 2 coins of the same denomination [e.g, 2 nickels). 2. Hold them at equal height. 1. Drop them at the same time. 4. Repeat steps 2:3 a few times at a few different heights and record your findings, 5, Obtain 2 coins of different denominations (e a, a penny and a quarter). 6. Repeat stops 2:3 a few times at a few different heights with the new mis matched coins and record your findings Part 2 performs a drop experiment comparing objects dropped from different distances to demonstrate how Deceleration leads to increasing speed. An object already in free fall has more speed than one at rest, and so should hit the ground faster. Requirements Documentation and a short summary of your observations. A picture of your setup Steps 1. Obtain 2 coins of the same denomination [e.g, 2 nickels). 2. Hold one coin higher (e g, above your head with your arm extended). 3. Hold the other coin lower (c.g, at waist height). 4. Drop the coin higher coin first and then release the lower coin when the higher coin hits the same height. This might take some timing practice. 5. Repeat steps 2 4 a few times and record your findings. Which coin hit first? Repeat steps 2.5 a few times at different heights. How does the change in height between the coins make this more or less obvious? Part 3. Non free fall Part 3 explores how air resistance affects free fall. The greater the area, the greater the air resistance, and the slower the free fall should be. RequirementsDocumentation and a short summary of your observations. Indicate if the prediction was correct. Provide a short explanation. A picture of your setup. Steps 1. Obtain 2 similar sized pieces of paper [e.g., half a standard sheet). 2. Hold them at the same height. 3. Release them at the same time. 4. Repeat steps 2:3 a few times and record your findings. How was the motion? Which paper fell fastest? 5. Now change the area of one of the sheets by folding it in half. Repeat steps 2:4 a few times with the new sheets and record your findings. How is the motion different? Which paper fell fastest? Part 4. Non free foll offferent masses Part 4 explores how air resistance affects free fall even when masses differ. A more massive objects does not necessarily mean it reaches the ground first Requirements # Documentation and a short summary of your observations. Indicate your prediction and if it was correct. Provide a short explanation. A picture of your setup. Steps 1. Obtain 1 full standard sheet of paper and 1 half standard sheet of paper. 2. Crumple the half sheet [which is lighter, half the mass of the other) into a tight ball. 3. Hold them at the same height. Predict which will hit the ground first. 4. Release them at the same time. 5. Repeat steps 3:4 a few times and record your findings. Was your prediction correct?' Notes and hints 1. This wolperiment should be easy to carry out. The most challenging component is part 2, where you must make sure that you drop one of the objects as the second passes by. If you are not sure if you are meeting this condition, try to use a helper. Remember to try different pairs of heights. 2. If you are stuck, ask for help.
