Crumple two pieces of paper into balls, one larger and one smaller. Drop them both at the same time and discuss how their sizes and air resistance affect their falling speed. Balancing Act Have kids experiment with balancing different objects on their fingertips. Discuss how the weight and shap...
Simple Gravity Experiment Collect a number of balls of different sizes and weights. You might also want to grab a stopwatch. Choose a location to conduct your experiment. You can simply have your child stand on the floor. You could also head to the park and drop balls from atop the playg...
Make physics fun for young kids this fall with an apple gravity experiment! Easy to set up, and fun to play and learn with.
A tribology experiment in zero gravity was performed during the orbital flight of Spacelab 1 to study the motion of liquid lubricants over solid surfaces. The absence of a significant gravitational force facilitates studies of the motion of liquid lubricants over solid surfaces as controlled by interf...
In a celestial system, two massive entities with masses of 3 x 1028 kg and 7 x 1028 kg are positioned 3.4 x 1011 m apart from each other. Determine the speed of both entities in this system 8PRACTICE PROBLEM Consider a pair of balls (spherical) that have a collective mass of 21...
Astronauts exercise with these tools every day to prevent muscle loss.Space water is different During another experiment, Wang made a water film(膜). Then she added more water drops onto the film to make it a water ball. This can never happen on Earth. Why? We need to first un-derstand...
Have fun rotating your phone and watching the balls fall across the screen as if they were really there. G-Balls is an application featuring a lot of balls on your phone screen, affected by gravity like in the real world. Rotate your phone to see balls bouncing and moving like if they ...
An experiment with the set-up shown in Figure 4.39(a) demonstrates how the system can work when the ‘structure’ is the pipe itself. When the pipe is disturbed, it vibrates, and this is detected by a displacement sensor. If the vibration is above a predetermined threshold, the valve ...
Experiment 2: 1/r^3 Let’s keep going! Let’s raise ‘r’ to an even higher power! We should expect even stronger precession, right? Well, let’s see: 1/r^3 force law. Try it in theGravity Simulatorwith: Gravity Fun at TestTubeGames.com: [ForceGr: r^(-3),Qual: 1,Zoom: 1...
This is known as scientific experiment and resulted in my opinion the event the first scientific discovery fire. We went onto other massive things such as language and alphabet thus speeding up the rate at which we could teach and share our experiments and results. The biggest thing that has...
