Short Answer Response: Kinematics Assignment
1. What is the difference between acceleration and velocity?
Velocity describes an object's speed and direction of motion, while acceleration describes how
quickly the velocity is changing. Velocity can remain constant if there is no acceleration acting
on the object.
2. Show the kinematic equation for an object in free-fall. Be sure to define each of the variables.
The kinematic equation for an object in free-fall is: h = h0 + v0t + (1/2) gt^2.
- h is the vertical displacement or height of the object at time t.
- h0 is the initial vertical position or height of the object.
- v0 is the initial vertical velocity of the object.
- t is the time elapsed.
- g is the acceleration due to gravity.
3. Write the original due date of this assignment for this term: Month and Day (For example, July
15 would be Month = 7, Day = 15)
Nov 6
th
= 11, 6
4. For a building having a height equal to the twice the quantity you have recorded for Day in
meters (in our example of July 15, this would be 2x15 = 30 meters), compute the time required
for the ball to fall to the ground while experiencing acceleration due to gravity(g=9.8m/s2).
Show all work.
h = (1/2) * g * t^2
h = 2 * 6 h = 12 meters
12 = (1/2) * 9.8 * t^2
24 = 9.8 * t^2
t^2 = 24 / 9.8
t^2 ≈ 2.449
t ≈ √2.449
t ≈ 1.565 seconds
5. How fast was the ball traveling when it hit the ground? Show your work.
v = g * t
v = 9.8 * 1.565
v ≈ 15.32 m/s
Short Answer Response: Newton’s Law Assignment
1. Write Newton's 2nd law of motion.
F = m * a
- F represents the force applied to the object.
- m represents the mass of the object.
- a represents the acceleration of the object.
2. Write the equation for centripetal force.
F = (m * v^2) / r
3. Write the Month and Day of the Assignment Due Date. For example, if the assignment is due
on July 15th, then Month=7, Day=15.For an object having a mass of 10 times the day given in
the previous section (for our example of July 15th, the mass would be 10x15=150kg), calculate
the weight of the object on the moon assuming acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.6
m/s2. Show all your work.
Nov 6
th
= 11, 6.
Weight = 60 * 1.6
Weight = 96 N
4. Find an example of a physical force from within the New Testament and discuss the example.
Be sure to provide the scripture reference. Physical force means an event that occurred during
biblical times, not a spiritual force.
There is an example of a physical force in the event when Jesus calms the storm In the New
Testament. This is recorded in the book of Mark, chapter 4, verses 35-41:
