    Does the acceleration of a free falling object ever change?

    The only actual things being measured is the time via sensors connected to a computer and the height. We're computing velocity manually just with the latter two measurements, height and time.

    Does the acceleration of a free falling object ever change?

    Sorry, I should of mentioned air resistance is negligible for this particular lab or the actual acceleration is the main focus by rather that we become familiar with the applications and equations orbiting this subject. I know a lot of programming so it just kind puts me off and leaves me a bit...

    Does the acceleration of a free falling object ever change?

    Have to make a table of measurements, height-time-velocity-acceleration, taken from a free falling object and my professor asked for the acceleration of each trial which is leaving me very confused because I thought g = 9.8ms2 is constant. So I'm going to have to write a bunch of 9.8s or is...

    Size of the friction force felt?

    So what would be a good way to proceed with c.?

    Size of the friction force felt?

    119 - 142sin (32) = 43.751 Whoops, thank you for that.

    Size of the friction force felt?

    Consider a sled being pulled across the snow at a constant velocity. Imagine that a child pulls the sled with a force of 142 N, and that the rope makes an angle of 32 degrees with the horizontal. The sled moves along the snow with a constant velocity. The sled has a weight of 119 N. a)Draw a...
