F=MA
This teacher hosts our club meetings as well as supports our club through organization.
Who is Mr. Jensen?
This Italian Astronomer dropped balls of different masses from the Leaning Tower of Pisa to test his theories on gravity.
Who is Galileo Galilei?
A car accelerates from rest at 2 m/s^2, This is the distance it travels in the first 5 seconds.
What is 25 meters?
This is our next meeting date.
What is Wednesday, October 21?
In 1905, often called this physicists miracle year, this physicist published four papers, including the theory of relativitiy.
Who is Albert Einstein?
A 2 kg book sits on a table. If the coefficient of statuc friction is 0.4 and g=10 m/s^2, this is the minimal force needed to make it slide.
What is 8 Newtons?
This is our first event, taking place between January and February.
What is the F=MA exam?
This Danish physicist proposed a revolutionary atomic model in 1913, where electrons orbit the nucleus in quantized energy levels.
Who is Niels Bohr?
An ideal gas at 300K is held at a constant volume. If pressure is doubled, this is its new temperature in Kelvin.
What is 600 Kelvin?
This is our school wide event.
What is the Trojan Physics competition?
In 1865, this Scottish scientist unified electricity, magnetism, and light into a single mathemtical theory with four famous equations.
Who is James Clerk Maxwell?
A 0.5 kg ball is whirled in a horizontal circle of radius 2 meters at a constant speed of 4 m/s. This is the magnitude of the centripetal force acting on the ball.
What is 4 newtons?
The two categories for the Photo Contest.
What are contrieved and natural subjects?
Performed in 1887, this experiment by two American physicists disproved the existence of the "luminiferous aether."
A 100-turn coil experiences a change in magnetic flux from 0.5 Wb to 0.1 Wb over a span of 2 seconds. This is the magnitude of the induced electromotive force (EMF) in volts.
What is 20 Volts?
