Present Your Findings Write a summary paragraph discussing this experiment and the results. Use the following questions and topics to help guide the content of your paragraph.

Consider the motion of the balloon and its air contents in terms of momentum. In step 1 above, the total momentum of the balloon and its contents was zero. Recall that momentum = mv. Both the balloon and the air inside it had a velocity of zero and therefore the total momentum was zero.
Now think about what happened when the air escaped from the balloon. A certain mass of air accelerated in one direction. In order to keep the total momentum of the system zero, the balloon itself (which has mass) had to accelerate in the opposite direction. Use this scenario to help you explain why the soda can rotates when the water squirts out of the escape holes.

What was your hypothesis concerning the water-filled can? According to your data, do you think your hypothesis was correct? (Be sure to refer to your data when answering this question.)
Summarize any difficulties or problems you had in performing the experiment that might have affected the results. Describe how you might change the procedure to avoid these problems.
Give at least one more example of Newton's third law in everyday life.

Aspring with a mass of 2 kg has a damping constant 14 kg/s. a force of 3.6 n is required to keep the spring stretched 0.3 m beyond its natural length. the spring is stretched 0.6 m beyond its natural length and then released. find the position of the mass at any time t. (assume that movement to the right is the positive x-direction and the spring is attached to a wall at the left end.)

Place several e-field sensors at a few points on different equipotential lines, and look at the relationship between the electric field and the equipotential lines. which statement is true? 1-at any point, the electric field is perpendicular to the equipotential line at that point, and it is directed toward lines of higher voltages. 2-at any point, the electric field is perpendicular to the equipotential line at that point, and it is directed toward lines of lower voltages. 3-at any point, the electric field is parallel to the equipotential line at that point.

Scientists follow specific processes in order to determine valid explanations and conclusions from observations. david observed strange lights in the sky above his home outside of roswell, new mexico. the only explanation that makes sense to him is that there are ufos in the area. what should david do next to verify his explanation?
