Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Force Normal on Spinning Space Station

In this lab students are going to be investigating how the parameters of a a spinning space station determine the apparent gravitational field for the people in the station. Students can change the mass of the person, the speed of the...

Students must find out force normal on an object on an incline at the angle at which the object is first about to slip.

Students must find the value of the spring constant based on a graph of force vs. length.

Students must find out different things for an object in a elevator simply based on the force-time graph that is produced as the object rides in the elevator.

Students must find out the force needed to hold an object stationary on an incline when there is no friction present on the incline.

Students must find the net force on one of the charges in a line of charges.

Students must find the net force on one of the charges in a triangular arrangement of charges.

Students must find the net force on one of the charges in a rectangular arrangement of charges.

Students must figure out the number of people that can go on a raft without having the raft go fully under the fluid.

Students must find the force on one charge caused by a second charge.
