Fource and Newton's Laws

First Experiment Force and Newton’s laws :Marble and golf ball and Dominoes

Problem- Which will have more force on the dominoes, is it the golf ball, that has more mass or is it the clear marble that has more speed. Does speed affect the force?

Hypothesis- I think that if I used the golf ball than it will have more force on the dominoes than the clear marble because, the golf ball has more mass than the clear marble. Even though I think that the golf ball marble will have more force because it has more mass and also because it is bigger. It doesn't mean that the clear marble can't knock over the dominoes just because of it's mass. The clear marble could possible knock over the dominoes because of its speed but I just think that if you have a higher mass than you will have a better chance of knocking over the dominoes. Does speed affect the force? I think that speed can affect the force because if the marble is going really fast then it could possible nock over the Dominoes causing a force.


How Newton's laws apply in my experiment and in the physical world?

Newton's laws apply in my experiment in all different kinds of ways. Newton's first law is; an object at rest will remain at rest and that object that is at rest is the Dominoes because they are not moving. The seconded half of Newton's first law is; an object in motion will remain in motion in the same direction unbalanced force acts upon it, and the object that is remaining in motion in the same direction is the two different type of marbles. The unbalanced force is the dominoes because they are getting knocked over. Now that the first law is done we can move on to Newton's seconded Law. Part of Newton's seconded law is; the relationship between force and acceleration. The force is the marble knocking over the Dominoes. The acceleration is just the marble because when it is going down the track builds up more speed and therefore it can knock over the dominoes. The seconded part of Newton's seconded law is; greater the force, the greater the acceleration. That just means the more force the marble has the faster it will go.

Materials-
One clear marble that is normal size
One golf ball
10 dominoes
Wooden track
Clean Space
Ruler

Procedure
1. Gather all materials.
2. Then set up project.
3. Put the wooden track down on the table first.
4. After when you’re done with that measure 1 inch on your ruler away from the wooden track then put down the first domino.
5. Then fowl with the other 9 dominoes but make sure this time you measure 1 centimeter apart from each one.
6. Then when you are all done setting that up take your clear marble and roll it down the track and see how many dominos it will nocks over
7. Make sure when you are doing this write how many domino fell every time
8. When you’re done with that do you project all over again but this time do it 5 times and see if it changes anything.
9. After when you’re done with that, set up you new experiment for this project
10. Put the wooden track down on the table first.
11. After when you’re done with measuring 1 inch on your ruler away from the wooden track, put down the first domino.
12. Then fowl with the other 9 dominoes make sure you measure 1 centimeter apart from each one like you did with the marble
13. Then when you are all done setting that up take your golf ball and roll it down the track and see how many dominos it will nocks over
14. Do that all over again 5 times
15. Then see which one has more force and does speed really effect the force


Identifying Variables
CV- same track, same height for the track and width, same dominoes, same golf ball, same marble, and same setup
DV- The force
IV-The weight of the golf ball and marble
Control- The kind of marble


What are my results?
My results show that the golf ball has more force than the marble. Even though I thought that if there was more speed it could possibly nock it over some dominoes but I was wrong with that.


Data table

Golf ball Marble
ALL none
ALL first one moved a little but did not knock over any
ALL none
ALL first one moved a little but did not knock over any
ALL none
ALL none

Observation
I saw that the golf ball was way more powerful than the marble because of its mass, the golf ball has a lot more mass then the marble because the marble is much smaller.


My hypothesis was?
My hypothesis was right because I knew that if there was more mass than it would have been an easier chance of knocking over the dominoes and also I was write because speed does effect the force. It affects the force because it shows that if it's going really fast it can give off a lot of power.
