Hoist
With the help of the dynamometer, it was possible to determine how much
force is needed to lift a load in the hoist
He also learned to calibrate the dynamometer and to assemble.

learned to use the beam and the dynamometer regarding the
analysis of the forces that one wants to find.
Conclusiones:
Experiment3 (composite movement):
determine the range depending on the angle and the velocity
of the shot
check the principle of superposition of composite motion
calculate the initial speed of the shot
introduction (1; report4):
Since a body is a continuous distribution of mass, at each
one of its parts acts as the force of gravity. The center of gravity is the
position where the net gravitational force can be considered acting,
furthermore, it is the point located at the average position where it is concentrated
the total weight of the body. For a symmetric object of homogeneous type, the
the center of gravity is located at the geometric center, but not for a
irregular object. An object is in stable equilibrium as long as its center of
gravity remained above and within its original support base. The bodies
rigid with broad bases and low centers of gravity are, by
consequently, more stable and less prone to overturning. This relationship is
evident for example in the design of high racing cars
speed, that have wide tires and low centers of gravity
to the ground.
Center of gravity: Because a body is a continuous distribution
of mass, in each of its parts, the force of gravity acts. The center
of gravity or centroid is the position where it can be considered
acting the net force of gravity, it is the point located in the position
average where the total body weight is concentrated. For an object
symmetric homogeneous, the center of gravity is located at the center
geometric, but not for an irregular object.
Introduction (2; report 4):
From the beginning, man has been in need of building great
objects that he could not move on his own. The ingenuity of man has
allowed to learn different methods and create systems to carry them out
work in an easier and faster way, but over time
they have made them as complex as the ones we use now. They are used
generally in industries to lift and place items and materials
very heavy on the different machines for loading and unloading them
the vehicles that transport them.
Introduction (3; report 4):
A beam is a structural member where the applied loads are
mainly perpendicular to the axis, which is the predominant design
it is bending and shear; if the loads are not perpendicular, something occurs
of axial force, but this is not decisive in the design.
The beam supports are the elements that provide stability.
to the beam and generally, they are found at the ends or near them.
The forces at the supports that are generated are products of the loads.
applied and are called reactions and balance the applied loads. A
A body is in equilibrium when it is at rest or has a
uniform motion. It is expressed analytically when the resultant of
the forces acting on a body are null, it is stated that the
the system of forces has no effect on the body and it is said that
the system of forces is in equilibrium.
