American Public University SCIN 233 1 lab 4-REVIEWED AND EDITED BY EXPERTS-HIGHLY RATED

Document Content and Description Below

Lab 4 - Physics Web Quest: Torque PHET Laboratory Worksheet Open the Physics Animations Link Below Open torque ( http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Torque ) Part I: Torque 1. Click ... the tab at the top that says torque 2. Set the force equal to 1 N. 3. Click Go let this run for at least 10 seconds 4. What is the torque on the wheel (include direction). The torque on the wheel can be calculated by using the formula for torque (T = (r) X (F)) Which yields T = .004m X 1N = .004 N-m which will be directed out the screen per the right hand rule. 5. What eventually happens to the lady bug? The lady bug flies off 6. From Newton’s second law, a force will cause an Acceleration 7. When considering angular motion, a torque will cause an Angular acceleration (consider both torque equations) 8. What must be the centripetal force that keeps the lady bug moving in a circle [Show More]
