PHYS 310 Week 1 Discussions

WEEK 1: CONCEPTS OF MOTION

Open ActivPhysics Tutorial 1.1, Analyzing Motion Using Diagrams. Complete questions 1 through 7 in the tutorial, and use what you have learned to answer one of the following questions:

• What effect does the starting or initial position have on the motion diagram of an object?
• What is the difference in the motion between a positive and a negative initial velocity?
• Does the direction of the acceleration alone determine if the object is speeding up or slowing down?

WEEK 1: UNITS AND MEASUREMENT

How can knowing the units of a measurement help solve the problem that you are working on?

PHYS 310 Week 1 Lab

Scenario/Summary

Physics is an experimental science. Physical concepts are only held to be conditionally true as long as they are supported by experiment or observations. The beginning of modern physics can be traced back to Galileo. Galileo systematically used experiments to guide and test his theoretical ideas. He proved experimentally that Aristotle’s hypothesis on free fall (heavy objects fall faster than the light ones) is wrong. He showed that two objects of different masses that are simultaneously dropped from the top of Pisa’s tower hit the ground at the same time. He then discovered the law of free fall in a gravitational field by studying the motion of objects rolling or sliding on an inclined plane and used these results to formulate the first principle of mechanics (later included by Newton in his Principia Mathematica).

The laboratory is a workshop in which students can gain firsthand knowledge of the physical principles and experimental methods used in physics.

For the student, some of the objectives of a laboratory exercise are to

• train in scientific methods of observation;
• acquire experience handling scientific and other electronics equipment;
• collect scientific data; and
• compute reliable results and draw valid conclusions from data.

For these reasons, all physics students should have the opportunity to participate in some form of laboratory experiment or exercise.

Computer acquisition and analysis of experimental data offers many advantages. Data are measured automatically and with greater precision than data measured by hand. The data are immediately stored in an electronic format and are available to be quickly graphed. There are also a wide variety of computerized data analysis tools available. Capstone is the software that we will use in this course to acquire and analyze experimental data.

The purpose of this tutorial is for you to become familiar with Capstone and some of its tools.

Lab Steps

STEP 1: Review Lab Instructions for Experiment 1

Review the Week 1 Lab instructions (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Follow the steps in this document to complete the lab activity.

STEP 2: Check Contents of Equipment Kit

At the start of the course, you should order the required equipment kit as soon as possible. During Week 1, you should receive your kit and check the contents against this packing list.

Report any discrepancies to your instructor. Please remember to read through the laboratory exercises well in advance of the due date to make sure that you have everything that you need.

STEP 3: Capstone Installation (required but not graded)

PASCO Capstone is the software that will allow you to acquire, analyze, and present data on the experiments in this course. Download and install Capstone from the Student Software Store by following the instructions given here (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..

STEP 4: Complete the Data Sheet

Download the lab report template (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. for this week’s lab. Use this template to complete your lab report.

Save your file using the filename format “lastname_firstinitial_Lab1.” For example, if you are Albert Einstein and you are submitting your Lab 1, the filename should be “einstein_a_Lab1.”

STEP 5: Submit Your Deliverable

Remember to submit your assignment for grading when finished.
