Determining a modified hook s law equation for the bungee cord abstract.
Rubber band bungee cord lab.
In your experiment a block of wood or a toy doll will substitute for the jumper and a rubber band will substitute for the bungee cord.
William schirmer daniel clark section.
Once again use a slipknot to connect a second band to the bungee line.
This lab was also used to demonstrate the law of conservation of energy.
It can be seen that the oscillation does gradually slow down and come to a stop as it undergoes damping.
Below is an attempt at simulating the bungee jumping scenario using a chain of rubber bands as the bungee cord and a bottle filled with water as the jumper.
Bungee cord mad of rubber bands.
A maximum positive acceleration corresponds to the bungee cord being extended to its maximum.
With two rubber bands now attached to washy hold the end of the rubber band with one hand at the jump line top of the measuring tape and washy with the other hand.
Use a small rubber band to tie back the doll s hair if it is not already in a ponytail.
Create a safe bungee cord for washy.
An egg hardboiled 3.
For the bungee cord.
Item 518169 model 117.
She should bounce a bit.
Remember the band wrapped around her ankles does not count in the length of the line drop her with the two rubber bands attached to her ankles.
Lab report outline bungee lab 1 your name and your lab partner s.
The purpose of this lab was to discover how gravitational potential energy related to elastic potential energy or the energy stored up in the rubber band.
Bungee ii lab 4 the data listed in figure 4 shows the data for the bungee cord at the length of 40 cm.
Students learn about the role engineers and mathematicians play in developing the perfect bungee cord length by simulating and experimenting with bungee jumping using washers and rubber bands.
Construct a bungee cord composed of 2 rubber bands and attach it to the band on the doll s ankles.
Record this value in your observations.
Activity activity worksheet 2 8.
The goal of this lab was to determine an adjusted hook s law equation of the bungee cord by changing the hanging mass on the cord and measuring equilibrium points.
Drop washy from the jump line and have one of your groupmates mark the lowest point washy reaches.
Just as in the previous situation we took the averages of the three trials we did at each mass in order.
Smartstraps 10 pack assorted length bungee cord.
Eventually the acceleration is upward although the jumper is still falling.
