PHYS 2010 003: Principles of Physics 1

• Uniform Linear Acceleration (instantaneous velocity measurement)
  ( I will need 3 idential rulers for an additional demo.)
• Propeller Cart on Track

• The Nickel and the Piece of Paper
  ( )
• Falling Drops of Milk

• Relativity Car
• The Monkey and the Hunter
• Range Gun

• Hero's engine (can't find it on the list)

• Tablecloth Jerk
• Bottle and Pencil
• Hanging Masses

• Relativity Car
  (with blocks for tilting the track, thanks)
• Newton's Sailboat

• The Atwood Machine
• Tension in a String
• Coefficient of Friction
  (can you prepare two or three wooden blocks, to show that friction is independent of the surface area and mass? for example, block 1 and 2 have the same surfact area (on one side) but the mass differ by factor of 2; block 2 and 3 have the same mass but the surface area differ by a factor of 2 or more (if the two blocks have the same geometry but one side is larger than another, can put them with different sides touching the incline).)

• Inclined Plane
• Conservative System
• Pendulum with Moveable Peg
• Loop - the - loop

• Whirligig

• Egg in a Sheet
• Fire Extinguisher Rocket Cart

• Center of Mass of Virginia
• Ballistic Pendulum
  ( The formula here should be v0 = X sqrt(g/L)*(m+M)/m, i.e. the "X" should be outside the sqrt. (the formula is not displaying properly on screen and I assume the symbol outside the bracket is a sign for a power of 1/2. That's right, the equation has been fixed on that page, thanks. )
