ArcticFoxZX87:

ok im here wut u want hayz

Hayhayz:

i want u to answer

ArcticFoxZX87:

k sure what ever lol

ArcticFoxZX87:

Are you nuts I can't answer that I am not as smart as you think Haleigh

ArcticFoxZX87:

Your halfway there lol can you finish it

Hayhayz:

i cant finish it

Hayhayz:

@Elsa213 @Ultrilliam

ArcticFoxZX87:

Lol those formulas would totally destroy my neurons if i forced my self to answer

ArcticFoxZX87:

Ik a girl on here who already has a cbr1000rr a;; white lol

ArcticFoxZX87:

all#

Hayhayz:

nows not the time to talk about bikes i need answers

ArcticFoxZX87:

My bad I don't know really i'm not as smart as you think that looks like college materials

Hayhayz:

let me add updated screenshot, had to change the mass numbers

@Vocaloid *cough cough*

Vocaloid:

first column seems like it would just be 2*displacement/t^2 using your displacement & time values

Vocaloid:

1 attachment
Vocaloid:

for the second column you can calculate your theoretical a value using the formula in the picture

Vocaloid:

% diff is just 100*(actual a - theoretical a)/theoretical a

Vocaloid:

for Ft use the formula in the cell to find the value

Vocaloid:

for Ft calc it seems like you would use the theoretical Ft (T) from the picture I attached

Vocaloid:

then % diff F calculation works just like the %A calculation

Vocaloid:

@sillybilly123 @Nnesha this is what little I understand as a non-physics person, please step in if I'm wrong

Hayhayz:

okay im going to attempt this now

Hayhayz:

okay regarding "first column seems like it would just be 2*displacement/t^2 using your displacement & time values" i got 0.000357106 for the first box lol does that seem right

Hayhayz:

okay moving onto the next step please stand by

Vocaloid:

hm. for the second column i get a very different value of a than the first column

Vocaloid:

oh wait your masses are in grams whoops let me try again

Hayhayz:

what do you mean? and im confused for the a CALC m/s^2 and my masses are in kilograms i converted them in a different screenshot

Hayhayz:

mass#1=0.10548 kg mass#2=0.09184

Vocaloid:

a = (m2-m1)/(m1+m2) * g

Hayhayz:

what is plugged in for g?

Vocaloid:

acceleration due to gravity. it's a constant.

Vocaloid:

g = 9.80665 m/s2

Hayhayz:

i think i did something wrong lol..

Vocaloid:

what did you get?

Hayhayz:

a negative number

Vocaloid:

what number did you get?

Vocaloid:

actually i think acceleration is supposed to be negative since the bigger weight is moving downward

Hayhayz:

-0.007517264

Vocaloid:

m1 = 0.10548 m2 = 0.09184 a = (m2-m1)/(m1+m2) * g = ?

Vocaloid:

@sillybilly123 I think i'm mixing up the sign convention for this one ugh

Hayhayz:

ahh this is so difficult

Vocaloid:

m1 = 0.10548 means replace m1 with 0.10548 m2 = 0.09184 means replace m2 with 0.09184 then calculate a = (m2-m1)/(m1+m2) * g

Hayhayz:

i did that and i get the same thing

Vocaloid:

let me make the notation more clear g*(m2-m1)/(m1+m2)

Hayhayz:

plugging in 9.80665 for g correct

Vocaloid:

yes

Hayhayz:

yea i get -0.007517264

Vocaloid:

9.80665(0.09184-0.10548)/(0.09184+0.10548) = ?

Hayhayz:

are you getting something diffrent cuz i did that in the calculator ^^

Vocaloid:

/ means divide

Vocaloid:

remember your order of operations

Vocaloid:

this is what I get http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=9.80665(0.09184-0.10548)%2F(0.09184%2B0.10548)

Vocaloid:

so about -0.67 m/s/s

Hayhayz:

alright so next is 100*0.0000357106-(-0.67)/-0.67?

Vocaloid:

yeah, I'd probably just use the positive values instead to make life easier so 100*(0.0000357106 - 0.67)/(0.67)

Vocaloid:

something doesn't seem right about your time values in the table though, they're unusually high :S

Hayhayz:

yeaaaa i wasnt there for lab, this is what i was given

Vocaloid:

so the calculation ends up being about a 99% difference :S

Vocaloid:

anyway, for Ft just follow the formula in the table

Vocaloid:

for the a value use the a from the first column

Hayhayz:

alright im starting from the beginning to make sure lol
