Types of Forces Lab Report
Instructions: In the Types of Forces lab, you will experiment with the contact force friction. Use the following lab report to record your hypothesis, materials, procedures, observations, and conclusion. You will submit your completed report.

Objective
The purpose is to test whether the surface texture of the ground affects the distance an object can roll.
Hypothesis
If an object rolls over (type of material), then it will (describe the prediction of distance it will travel).
Materials
For this lab, I used the following items:
Procedure
Short summary of what I did:
I experienced the following errors while doing my experiment:
Test (independent) variable (What was different about my test groups?):
Outcome (dependent) variable (What was I measuring?):
Data
Record the distance traveled for each of the trials for both floor surfaces in the table below.
Distance Object Traveled
Floor Surface Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3
Data Analysis
Calculate the average distance traveled for each floor surface. Use the following guidelines for calculating averages, and show your work.
Floor Covering Calculation of the Average Average Distance Traveled
Example (trial 1 measurement + trial 2 measurement + trial 3 measurement) / 3 (number of trials) Your answer from the calculation, showing the average distance the ball rolled for that floor covering.
Conclusion
Answer the following questions in complete sentences.
Describe in your own words what friction is.
Describe how friction affected the results of your investigation.
Does an object travel farther on a smooth or slippery surface or on a rough surface? Why?
Propose another experiment that could be used to demonstrate that friction is a contact force.

During spring semester at mit, residents of the parallel buildings of the east campus dorms battle one another with large catapults that are made with surgical hose mounted on a window frame. a balloon filled with dyed water is placed in a pouch attached to the hose, which is then stretched through the width of the room. assume that the stretching of the hose obeys hooke's law with a spring constant of 89.0 n/m. if the hose is stretched by 5.80 m and then released, how much work does the force from the hose do on the balloon in the pouch by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length? unitst 3 number-1497 the tolerance is +/-5% open show work click if you would like to show work for this question:
