Objective:

A series of technical projects provide students with a hands$-$on experience to understand tundamental concepts in Dynamics through "learning by doing." Throughout the ME $2330$ course iectures, students will learn about basic principles, concepts, analytical approaches, and probiem$-$solving skills in Dynamics. To supplement theories and "learning by lectures and problem$-$solving," this project will help students connect the concepts and theories in class with experiments and "doing" as a group.

Summary:

This project is to measure gravity through a simple experiment. A group of $34$ students come up with their strategy to measure the gravity, known as $9\mathrm{.}81\frac{m}{s^{{?}^{{?}^{?}}}}2,$ and set an experiment procedure. The gravity varies depending on where and how you measure it$.$ An object at rest falls from a particular known height, and you measure the travel time. Using the definition of acceleration, velocity, position, and their relation, you can find your gravity $($acceleration$).$

Submission Guideline:

Write $($type$)$ a one or two$-$page document.

Record a short $($less than $30$ seconds$)$ YouTube video link.

The video shows the motion of an object.

No cover page is necessary

Take a group photo. $\sqrt[\phantom{2}]{?}$

Submit $1)$ a document, $2)$ a video link, and $3)$ a group photo through iLearn.

Measurement Guideline:

Your group can pick any object.

At least $2$ or $3$ experiments are recommended for accuracy.

Work as a group. $($Each individual plays a specific role$)$

Always be careful! $($Safety is the first$)$

Brainstorm and discuss first before vou go out for an experiment.
