The Factors Affecting the Stopping Distance of a Margarine Tub

Factors influencing the stopping distance of the margarine bath Purpose: To study factors affecting the stopping distance of the catapult bathtub. In this experiment we will focus on changing the impact of catapult bath quality on stop distance (sd). Introduction: What to stop doing soon. However, the position they stop depends on several factors - their mass (the mass of the moving object), the speed of the moving object, the friction between the surfaces, and the resistance of air (or water) Movement around an object.

How the quality of the survey affects the moving distance of the weighted margarine barrel as the stretched rubber band moves along the runway. This plan predicts that as the quality of the margarine barrel rises, the travel distance of the bathtub will be shorter. This is thought to be because the surface friction increases as the mass increases, the distance decreases because the object decelerates and stops quickly as the friction increases. The equation of kinetic energy is as follows. Kinetic energy = mass × velocity squared

Mass (g) Movement distance (cm) 15 Plan B Fixing rubber band - Used to push objects. Meter ruler - Measure the moving distance. Margarine bathtub. Sand - Change the quality of the object. Stool - Fasten the rubber band. Scale - Measure the quality of the margarine bucket. Measurement table - Measure the distance to pull back the rubber band. Smooth surface - experiment. This method is investigating how the quality affects the distance the projectile travels during projectile propulsion; I will try the margarine bath full of sand. Change the amount of sand to put in the bathtub to change the quality, use 50 g to 500 g quality, test every 50 g. I decided to use this range. That's because we get a lot of results that can easily be analyzed and rendered on the chart. I stretched the rubber strings on the two legs of the stool; this keeps teaching rubber strings so I can press it into the bathtub

In this test, it was tested whether adding an elastic band affected the moving distance of the edge bathtub. I set the device with the image above. I draw back the band 10 cm each time. I also added a fixed weight to a 500 gram bathtub; this helps to provide more accurate results. First, I placed the strap between the brackets, then pulled back the edge bathtub by 10 cm to release it, and removed the distance it moved. Then I added another rubber band and did the same thing. We added a total of 10 rubber bands and repeated the whole test three times.
