WEEK 2: MOTION IN TWO DIMENSIONS
Tarzan swings
through the jungle by hanging from a vine. Immediately after he steps off the
branch, is Tarzan’s acceleration zero or nonzero? If the acceleration is
nonzero, which way does it point? What about Tarzan’s acceleration when he is
at the lowest point in his swing? Draw a motion diagram of Tarzan’s swing
before you attempt to answer this.
PHYS 310 Week 2 Lab
Scenario/Summary
A
vernier caliper (see Figure 1 in the Lab Instructions for a graphic of one) is
a device used by machinists, technicians, engineers, and scientists to measure
the dimensions of objects ranging in size from a fraction of a centimeter to 15
cm to a precision of a fraction of a millimeter.
Exact numbers are those that
result from counting (such as the number of cars in a parking lot or the number
of apples in a bushel) or by definition (1 hour = 60 minutes, 1 inch = 2.54
cm). Any number that is the result of a measurement is by nature approximate.
It is very important to express the result of any measurement to the correct
number of significant digits. Too many digits written out implies that the
number is more precise than you measured. Too few digits implies that you
haven’t worked hard enough. In physics, words that may seem to be synonyms are
not. For example, precision and accuracy may be used almost interchangeably in
everyday language, but as technical terms these words have very different
meanings. The accuracy of an approximate number is a measure of how
close the number is to its true value. The precision of an
approximate number is the value or position of the least significant digit.
The relative
precision of a measured number is the least significant digit
divided by the value expressed as either a fraction or a percentage. For
example, the measurement 2.14 V has a precision of 10 mV and a relative
precision of 0.01 / 2.14 = 0.0047 or 0.47%. Review the rules of significant
digits in your text.
Volume is the total amount of
space (in cubic units) that any object occupies. Mass density is
the ratio of the mass of an object to its volume. For most solids and liquids,
the mass density is a constant property of the material.
The
purpose of this Lab is for you to use your caliper to measure the dimensions of
some common objects and to use your measurements for some basic calculations.
