summary: The class preformed an experiment that measure the amount of weight the robot could lift using a pully. All the information was determined by Labview.
objective: The idea of the experiment was to compare measurements of the different factors included to life weights.
Information:
Potential energy was calculated using the formula Potential energy= mgh. M stands for mass, G stands for acceleration due to gravity, and H stands for the height measurement of distance that the mass was lifted. Power used by the robot was calculated by dividing potential energy by time.
| Mass (Kg) | mgh (J) | Power (mgh/t) |
| 0.1 | 0.2107 | 0.2272923409 |
| 0.1 | 0.2107 | 0.1115995763 |
| 0.1 | 0.2107 | 0.0561267981 |
| 0.1 | 0.2107 |
0.0419972095 |
Conclusion: The experiment allowed the students to see that there are relationships between different factors. Since the we did different things to one factor, we were able to observe another factor as well.
