Part 1: Wally and the Fire Extinguisher - (TUTORIAL) There's a classic scene in the Pixar movie Wall-E where he propels himself through space using a fire extinguisher. In this lab, you will set initial conditions to predict the final velocity and ultimately the time it takes Wally (no relation to the animated robot surely) to pass through a set of photogates 10 meters apart How to use the Simulation: (SIMULATION LINK) Click on the up/down arrows to increase/decrease the Activate extinguisher's force and Wally's Mass. Click on "Activate" to turn on the extinguisher and begin applying the force. Once the backpack reaches the desired distance, click on "Shut Off to stop the force and allow Wally to continue at Photogate Time Extinguisher's Force Wally's Mus's a constant velocity. TISN TO kg The photogate time is measured in milliseconds and 1 1 1 1 represents the time it takes for Wally to pass through the 10-meter gap between lasers. Calculate the work done: Choose one from each column Extinguisher' Distance Wally's s Force Mass 50 N 5 m 85 kg 55 N 10 m 42 ko 65 N 15 m 50 kg Calculate the final velocity: 85 N 20 m 55 kg 100 N 25 m 62 kg 115 N 30 m 70 kg 130 N 35 m 75 kg 155 N 40 m 79 kg Calculate the time to go 10 meters at final velocity. 175 N 45 m 82 kg 190 N 50 m 85 kg 200 N 55 m 90 kg Calculated Time from above Measured Time from Simulation Part 2: Wally Design
