Create a 5 pages page paper that discusses motion in one and two dimensions. The velocity of an object or a body in motion in one dimension is one of the factors that keep changing. For instance, when an object is released with a zero velocity and subject only to the gravitational field of the earth, it moves with uniform acceleration to the center of the earth. However, if an object is thrown at a certain set angle above the horizontal, independent motions in two dimensions come into effect. These motions are. the accelerated motion along with the vertical and constant motion along the horizontal.

The objective of motion in one dimension experiment is to help in measuring the acceleration of the earth or space gravity. On the other hand, the objective of motion in two dimension experiment is to demonstrate the independence of accelerated motion and uniform motion in a body or an object moving at an angle between the vertical and horizontal motions.

The purpose of the floating hockey puck and carbon experiment is to measure the acceleration due to earth gravity and show the independence of the motion. To ease the curbing effects of friction on the carbon paper, these experiments use floating hockey pucks that move over the carbon paper. The floating hockey puck is set to move at an angle theta between the X direction and Y direction. The floating hockey puck’s acceleration between the two directions should be a = gsin theta. On punching, the dots on the carbon paper, displacement measurements can be collected, and the puck’s velocity is calculated. These data will help to calculate acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration is vital because is used to calculate the experimental gravity (g) from the expression a = gsin theta. In the first experiment, which is motion in two dimensions, the size of spaces between successive dots increases with an increase in time in the Y direction. while that in X direction decreases with the time taken, by the floating hockey&nbsp.
