2 Part I – Experimental Design, Data, and Analysis A. Lab 9 – Rotational Inertia Part I Table 1 Experimental Design for IV, System Mass Research Question What factors impact the moment of inertia of a rotating system? Dependent Variable Moment of Inertia Independent Variable System Mass (kg) 0.1044, 0.2044, 0.3044, 0.4044, 0.5044 Control Variable Hanging Mass, Length, Torque Testable Hypothesis The mass does impact the moment of inertia. Prediction If mass increases, the moment of inertia will increase as well. Table 2 Raw Data for IV, System Mass mass (kg) angular acceleration ( rad/sec^2) error Inertia(kg*m^2 ) 0.1044 0.649 0.0022 0.01349769 0.2044 0.567 0.0022 0.01544974 0.3044 0.528 0.0028 0.01659091 0.4044 0.502 0.0023 0.0174502 0.5044 0.474 0.0019 0.01848101 Figure 1 Graph of System Mass (IV) on Inertia (DV)
3 Note. This graph shows that there is a positive relationship between the mass of the system (IV) and moment of inertia (DV). Claims: As that mass (IV) increased, moment of inertia (DV) also increased. This is dependent that the hanging mass, length, and torque staying constant. B. Lab 10 – Rotational Inertia Part II Table 3 Experimental Design for IV, Distance from Radius Research Question What factors impact the moment of inertia of a rotating system? Dependent Variable Moment of Inertia Independent Variable Distance from radius (0.03m, 0.06m. 0.09m, 0.12m, 0.15m) Control Variable Hanging Mass (0.07kg), System Mass (0.574kg) and Radius (15mm) Testable Hypothesis This distance does impact the moment of inertia. Prediction If this distance increases, the moment of inertia will increase as well. Table 4 Raw Data for IV, Distance from Radius Position (m) Angular Acceleration (rad/sec^2) Error Inertia 0.03 0.667 0.002 0.015427286 0.06 0.603 0.0019 0.017064677 0.09 0.534 0.0018 0.019269663 0.12 0.464 0.0017 0.022176724 0.15 0.388 0.0013 0.026520619
