Lab Name: Newton’s First and Third Laws Part I Preliminary Questions: 1. The force of the bug on windshield and the windshield on the bug are the same magnitude but with opposite directions. 2. Yes, the hand both exerts and experiences force, the magnitude is equal, but the directions are opposite. 3. The force on the left hand will increase. 4. The force of the rubber band is equal on both hands, just on opposite directions. This shows that for every force there is an opposite and equal reaction. Analysis Questions 1. The two data runs show the forces of the two different pulls. It shows how the magnitude of the two pulls are equal, but the directions are opposite of each other.
2. The rubber band does not change the results all the rubber band is, is a way for the forces to be done through. 3. The force sensors do not have the same positive direction, if it pulls right, it is positive and if it pulls left it is negative. 4. There is no way to pull on the partner sensor without the sensor pulling back, due to the magnitude being equal on both sensors. 5. The forces applied are dependent on each other, but the locations are different. 6. The results are consistent with the preliminary questions due to newtons third law of motion. Part II Preliminary Questions: 1. When there is no force on the body it means that there are zero forces on the body, when there are multiple forces on the body it cancels out. 2. An object in motion at a constant velocity will continue to in that state until a net force is acted upon it.
