OBJECTIVE: Compute the speed of rolling bodies using conservation of energy.

MATERIALS:
a sphere timer
cylinder weighing scale (manghiram lang)
block of wood inclined plane (improvised lang)
hollow cylinder

PROCEDURE:
1. Determine the mass and radius of each object to be used in the experiment. For the block, determine its length, width, and height.
2. Release the metal sphere, solid cylinder, wooden block, and hollow cylinder one at a time from the same height on the inclined plane.
3. Get the time for each of the objects to reach at the bottom of the plane. Which object will reach the bottom first?
4. Measure the height and the length of the inclined plane.
5. Get the average speed of each object at the bottom of the inclined plane by dividing the length of the incline by the time the object reach the bottom of the
plane.
vaverage = L / t

6. Compute the speed at the bottom by multiplying the average speed by 2, assuming that the objects starts from rest.
