Objective: Measure your personal walking speed.
Materials: Meter Stick / Any measuring device
Stopwatch / Cellphone with stopwatch
Procedure: Look for a straight path that you can freely walk.
: Mark the origin and the end point.
: Use a stopwatch to obtain the time it takes for you to walk a 20 m distance.
: Make 5 trials.
: Speed can be obtained by dividing the distance over time.
TRIALS DISTANCE ( m ) TIME ( S ) SPEED ( m/s )

EXERCISES
1.A ball is rolling across the top of a billiard table and slowly rolls to a stop.How would Aristotle interpret this observation?How would Galileo interpret this?
Galileo would say that the ball comes to rest because the ball seek its natural state to rest.Aristotle would likely have said it comes to rest because of some forces acting on it; likely friction between the ball and table surface and with the air.
2.Why did Galileo used inclined planes to investigate free fall?
Galileo spent a lot of time polishing the ramps he used in his gravity experiments, to minimize variance from friction.
3.Which has the greater average speed during a game: a football, a baseball, or a golf ball? Defend your answer.
A golf ball because it flew freely in the air without friction after it was hit!
4.One airplane travels due north at 300 km/h while another travels due south at 300 km/h.Are their speeds the same? Are their velocities the same? Explain.
The same speed but different velocities because it is on different directions.
5.Charlie drove his car around the block at constant velocity.True or false?Explain.
False because it could move at constant speed but not of constant velocity due to its ever changing direction.
6.Cite an example of something that undergoes acceleration while moving at constant speed.Can you also gave an example of something that accelerates while traveling at constant velocity?Explain.
Earth, constantly accelerating but moving at constant speed.
Sound, accelerates while traveling at constant velocity
7.Can you give an example wherein the acceleration of a body is opposite in direction to its velocity? Do so if you can.
Twanging a stretched rubber band
8.If you were standing in an enclosed car moving at constant velocity,would you have to lean in some special way to compensate for the car's motion?What if the car were moving with unchanging acceleration?Explain.
No because the velocity does not change so is the speed.My travel is so smooth.
9.On which of these hills does the ball toil down with increasing speed and decreasing acceleration.?
Hill number 2.
10.What is the acceleration of a car that moves at a steady velocity of 100 km/h for 100 seconds? Explain your answer.
Acceleration is a measure how much the speed is getting faster or slower.In this case the car is not getting faster or slower so the acceleration is zero.
11.For a freely falling object dropped from rest, what is its acceleration at the end of the 5th second of fall? The 10th second? Defend your answer.First acceleration due to gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s^2(32.2f/s^2) so
v=ta
v=5(9.8)
v=49 m/s
v=ta
v=10(9.8)
v=98 m/s
No matter what specific time you have,the acceleration will always be 9.8 m/s^2 due to earths gravity (unless acted upon by an outside force). So the answer to all the question is 9.8 m/s^2.
12.Suppose that a freely falling object were somehow equipped with a speedometer.By how much would its speed reading increase with its second of fall?
Each second it would get 9.8 m/s^2 faster since the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2.
13.Suppose that the freely falling object in the preceding exercise were also equipped with an odometer.Would the readings of distance fallen each second indicate equal or different falling distances for successive seconds?Explain.
Different.As the speed increases the distance travelled per unit unit of time also increase.
14.When a ball player throws a ball straight up, by how much does the speed of the ball decrease each second while ascending( assume air resistance can be neglected)?By how much does it increase each second while descending?How much time is required for rising compared to falling?
The only force acting on the ball in either case is ( assuming no wind resistance as you state in the problem ) is gravity.
Acceleration (going down)=decceleration (going up) at approx. 9.8 m/s^2
So it will take the same amount of time to fall once it reaches the top as it will to get there and the speed when it returns to the height of the players hand again will be the same initial speed he threw it upwards in the first place.
15.Someone standing at the edge of a cliff throws a ball straight up at a certain speed and another ball straight down with the same initial speed.If air resistance is negligible,which ball will have the greater speed when it strikes the ground below?Explain.
Both hit with the same speed because the both hit the terminal velocity
16.If you drop an object,its acceleration toward the ground is 9.8 m/s2.
If you throw it down instead.would its acceleration after throwing be greater than 9.8 m/s2? Why or why not?
The object would still be accelerating at 9.8 m/s2 but its velocity would be greater due to the force from throwing.Once an object left your hand after being thrown, there is no more acceleration from the arm.
17.In the preceding exercise can you think of a reason why the acceleration of the object thrown downward through the air would actually be less than 9.8 m/s2?
If we consider air friction then the acceleration of an object in free fall is always less than 9.8 m/s2
18.If it will not by air resistance, why would it be dangerous to go outdoors on rainy days?
I think you would not received serious injury,a raindrop does not have enough mass to gain kinetic energy high enough to do more damage than large hail stones.
19.Extend tables 2.2 and 2.3 (which gives values of from 0 to 5 s) to 0 to 10 s, assuming no air resistance.

20.In this chapter,we studied idealized cases of balls rolling down smooth planes and objects falling with no air resistance.If a classmate complains that all this attention focused on idealized cases is valueless because idealized cases simply dont occur in the everyday world,how would you respond?How do you suppose tha author of this book would respond?
The motion of idealized system is far easier to understand.Once that motion is understood--as a first approximation--the motion with friction (such as air resistance) is then easier to understand as a refinement to the first approximation.

COPERNICUS and the moving Earth
3. Contrast the relationship between the earth and the sun as seen by Aristotle and by Copernicus.
The EARTH completes a rotation on its axis every 24 hours and 54 minutes.This rotation is counterclockwise with respect to the sun when observe from the north pole.The earth completes one revolution around the sun once every 365.26 days.The north pole always point at the same directionsand space.When observe from space the earth seen to mve ia a helical motion about the sun as the sun travels to our galaxy.
Another contrast taken from YOU TUBE: TRUTH! The earth does not revolve around the sun-The exposure in hiding...
You will not find information in the motion of the solar system in our galaxy.But there is huge number of materials on the motion of planets around the sun.This creates a deliberately false impression of people about the world.Mankind believed not only in times of Copernicus.This deception continues.It seems that the earth after 365 days of returns to the starting point.Where is the lie?The sun.It is not the center of the galaxy.The sun revolves around the galactic center.Therefore,the planet revolves in a spiral.The analysis of the motion shows that the planets moves independently of the sun.Trajectory of motion more complicated the circle.And not fit into the theory of rotation of something around something.The nature and trajectory of the rotation indicates the existence of the invisible energy,causes the object to rotates.Partially this energy is known to us as atomic energy.The motion of the electrons are on the same principle.Planets in the solar system rotates under the action of invisible energy.The energy is rotating in a spiral carrying away for itself materials object.This is a very important knowledge.Because you, too, moves with the earth.Motion in a circle and spiral-these are two different attitude,which gives different results.This understanding is important to the transition of the next dimension.Spiral-this is life.but the circle is often called called vicious.Ex. spiral DNA, spiral on crown,spiral cyclone,spiral galaxies.

ARISTOTLE ON MOTION
1.Contrast Aristotle's ideas of natural motion?On violent motion?
Natural motion by Aristotle view was every object in the universe had a proper place determined by this "nature"; any object not in its proper place would "strive" to get there.
In contrast excerpt from WILLIAM OCKHAM. there are no essential. necessary "natures" or universals that determines what an individual things or "particular" must be.Similarly between individuals (for example, individual people or planet0 are simply a matter of fact, of their contingent ordering by divine will,not of metaphysical necessity.
On Aristotle's view that Larger objects were thought to strive harde, thought to fall at speeds proportional to their weights the heavier the obects,the faster it was thought to fall.
In contrast excerpts from GALILEO experiment at Leaning Tower which he shows logically that stones regardless of weights fall to the ground at the same speed and time.
Violent motion by Aristotle view was it result from pushing and pulling forces.It is an imposed motion to keep an object to move.
In contrast excerpt from GALILEO experiment on inclined, sloped upward and downward and no slope plane.And the object after pushing or pulling will continue to move in a straight line forever;no push or pull at any kind is needed
2.Did Aristotle think that a force acts on the moon as it circles the earth?Yes
On earth, did he think a force keeps a ball rolling along a smooth, level surface?.No.
1.Contrast Aristotle's ideas of natural motion?On violent motion?
Natural motion by Aristotle view was every object in the universe had a proper place determined by this "nature"; any object not in its proper place would "strive" to get there.

How important studying physics for a Midwife?
PHYSICS is everywhere!!! Midwifery thus is not an exception! It is very important to learn physics in our field of practice because we cared for nature,the sperm and the egg cell from ovulation and penetration to the union of the two which signals fertilization.The forces why two people lead to sexual act! The implantation of an embryo to the endometrium till 9 months then will result to four stages of labor! The different family planning methods also practice physics! The changing technology to help a Midwife much effective on her assisting a woman from intrapartum to postpartum!The legal aspects in livebirth registration also needs an expertise in physics!
