The earth’s radius is 6.37 × 10 6 m; it rotates once every 24 hours. a. What is the earth’s angular speed? b. Viewed from a point above the north pole, is the angular velocity positive or negative? c. What is the speed of a point on the equator? d. What is the speed of a point on the earth’s surface halfway between the equator and the pole? (Hint: What is the radius of the circle in which the point moves?)

Definition Definition Angle at which a point rotates around a specific axis or center in a given direction. Angular displacement is a vector quantity and has both magnitude and direction. The angle built by an object from its rest point to endpoint created by rotational motion is known as angular displacement. Angular displacement is denoted by θ, and the S.I. unit of angular displacement is radian or rad.
The following data was collected for a friction experiment in which an object was observed moving at constant speed over a surface.
Graph the Applied Force versus the Normal Force and determine the coefficient of friction.
Is this value the coefficient of kinetic friction or the coefficient of static friction? Justify your answer.

1. Measurements and Linear Regression
1.1 Introduction
The objective of this lab assignment is to represent measurement data in graphical form in order to
illustrate experimental data and uncertainty visually. It is often convenient to represent experimental
data graphically, not only for reporting results but also to compute or measure several physical
parameters. For example, consider two physical quantities represented by x and y that are linearly
related according to the algebraic relationship,
y=mx+b,
(1.1)
where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. In order to assess the linearity between y
and x, it is convenient to plot these quantities in a y versus x graph, as shown in Figure 1.1.

Once the data points are plotted, it is necessary to draw a "best fit line" or "regression line" that
describes the data. A best fit line is a straight line that is the best approximation of the given set of
data, and…
