Forces in Everyday Life (Week 7)
Model or Topic Explored: You will create a demonstration of either the free particle (sum of the
forces is equal to zero) or constant force particle (sum of the forces is equal to mass x acceleration). You have several different options to choose from to create a scenario, or you may develop one of your own to look at the force balance. Name: Margaret Murphy
Date: 02/02/2024
Constants:
Mass of IO Lab unit
String Pulling IO Lab unit
Measurables:
Force sensor (force in newtons)
F=O, N+W=0 (vector), N-W=0 (scalar in 1-D) W, (mass of unit)
Observables: The grey hook is attached to the IO Lab unit and a white string is used to pull it across three different three different sets of materials to determine the friction coefficient. The three different sets of materials will be carpet, wooden floor, and a granite counter top. Problem Statement: How does friction force depend on the normal force when an object is moved in a constant velocity on different materials?
Prediction: I predict that when an object is moving at a constant velocity that the friction force must
equal the normal force. Another prediction that I have is that the friction force will be higher when dragging the IO Lab unit across the carpet compared to the other experiments.

Experiment: Procedure (list of steps with some detail):
1.

2.
Tie the string onto to the grey hook and place friction pads on the device
3.

6.

two digital photographs. One with you and your sign containing your name and the date of your experiment, and at least
one more of you with the items used in your experiment (preferably while doing the experiment).]
Precautions and caveats:
None
Data Table with Units: [In this section, you may paste a data table from MS Excel or generate a table within MS Word.]

Across the carpet:

𝜇=F/N
𝜇= -1.225N/-1.952N= 0.628N
Diagrammatic Model: [Digital pictures or diagrams created within MS Word would be included here.]
Verbal Representation: [Represent the results and the relationships between variables that you’ve found in words.] In this experiment I found that when moving in a constant velocity, the friction force must be equal to the normal force. I also found that the friction force of carpet was indeed more than granite countertop and wood, so my prediction was correct. I knew this would happen, because it took a harder pull on the IO Lab unit to get it to move, compared to the countertop and wood. Once it was in motion, it was easier to keep it in motion.

Experiment #1: Acceleration vs. Force
In this lab you will determine the relationship between acceleration and net force.
Choose a mass at the beginning, and keep it constant for this entire experiment.
Set the friction to zero. This will make your Applied Force equal to the net force.

You have been asked by your supervisors at A&L Engineering to design a roller coaster for a new theme park. Because this design is in the initial stages, you have been asked to create a track for the ride. Your coaster should have at least two peaks and two valleys, and launch from an initial height of 75 meters. Each peak and valley should represent a vertical change of at least 20 meters. In your design, you should plan for a mass between 400 and 600 kilograms.
Once you have designed the track, you have been asked to calculate the kinetic energy, potential energy, momentum, and work done by the cart at various points throughout the track. Unless otherwise stated, you can ignore the effects of friction. Following your calculations, you have been asked to describe the energy transfers detailed by these equations.
Directions

1) A low-friction cart is placed between two identical springs attached to rigid walls.
If you push the cart against one of the springs and release it, it will continue to
move back and forth between the springs.

Draw a force-time graph showing the sum of the horizontal forces exerted on the
cart as it moves back and force between the springs.

You are a biomedical engineer working for a small orthopaedic firm that fabricates rectangular shaped fracture
fixation plates from titanium alloy (model = "Ti Fix-It") materials. A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates
implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial
weight bearing activities.
Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to
verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into
solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending
test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the
yield stress for the Ti-6Al-4V…
