Conservation of Energy
Materials:
Metal Slide, Plastic Ruler, Marble, Meter Stick
Procedure:
Place the marble at the top of the ruler and release it. Set up the slide so that the marble is allowed to leave the ruler moving essentially horizontally and able to land on the floor. Ignore the effects of angular momentum.
Analysis:
-What is the speed of the marble just before leaving the ruler?
-What is the speed of the marble just before it hits the ground?
-Thinking about projectiles (Chapter 4), calculate the range of the marble.
-Measure the range and compare that value to the calculated value (using percent error).
Conclude about your findings. Please be specific and refer to your results as you do so. With your conclusion should come an error analysis section.
