Data:
WemeasurehowfasttheBlackHoleGoRoundcanmovein1round
byusingthestopwatchandapplyitintermsofphysicsconcept
includingvelocityandacceleration.Also,measuringthe
circumferenceandradiustocalculateforvelocityand
acceleration.
Thevelocityisv=d/t
=47.1cm/0.4s
=117.75
Theaccelerationisa=v2/r
=(117.75x117.75)/2
=1848.68
AnalysisofData:
According to the velocity of the Black Hole Go Round, it can
be analysed that there are some significant connections between
the amount of velocity and time. If the time becomes lesser, the
velocity becomes higher. Also, if the time becomes higher, the
velocity will be lesser
Conclusion:
Inconclusion,ThespeedofBlackholegoround
