PHYS 1710-001: Intro Physics I

•  video  - Newton's Sailboat
• Rotational Inertia Rods
•  video  - Vector Nature of Angular Momentum
• LN2 - Thermal Effects on Solids and Gases

• I would also like a ball and an inclined plane. Basically, I want to release the ball from different places and measure the time it takes to reach the bottom. Need a hand held stopwatch. Need for 1710 on Monday 8/31.

•  video  - Hanging Masses
•  video  - The Atwood Machine
• Push Me Pull Me Carts
  ( I just need the spring scales, not the carts. )

•  photos  - Tension in a String
• Weight Dependence of Friction
  ( I don't like the surface area friction demo. So, last year, to show the dependence on surface area, we ended up only using the two different sized blue wooden planks dragged on smooth surface of particle board with 4 x 1kg masses spread evenly on each, spring scale reads about 13 Newtons each: 15"x10.5" = 503g and 7.5"x5.25" = 130g + 381g mass )

• Just a simple pendulum.

• little ball bouncing off the big ball. you drop a tennis ball on a basketball, and the tennis ball bounces really high.

• Ballistic Pendulum

•  video  - Rolling Objects and Moments of Inertia
•  video  - The Falling Rigid Body

•  video  - Vector Nature of Angular Momentum
•  video  - Precession of Bicycle Wheel Under Gravity Force
• Gyrocompass

• Just a simple pendulum

• Exam starts at 8:30am, no demos

• I also used a beaker, the digital scale, and a weight. I filled the beaker most of the way with water and sat it on the scale. Then, I dipped the weight in until the water reached the lip of the jar and measured the weight. Then I took the weight out and filled the jar with water and measured the weight. They should be the same.
