Question

6. With the cart about 40 cm from the Motion Sensor, MRE e A R A sme tong 0 x make the cart oscillate about 10 cm by pushing and 4.0 pulling on the Force Sensor hook. Try to make at least one oscillation per second. 3.5 7. While the cart is oscillating, record about 5 seconds of data. Note that the graph is Force vs. Acceleration. 3.0 8. The graph won't look like a single line, but you can 2.5 still do a Linear curve fit to find average slope. Ignore the sign. 2.0 9. What physical property does the slope of a Force vs. Acceleration graph represent? Hint: what are the units 1.5 of the slope? 1.0 11. The graph shows that the applied force is directly proportional to the resulting acceleration. Write the 0.5 equation in the form F a 12. What is the name of this equation? 0.0 -0.5 1.0 1.5 Answers 2.0 2.5 3.0 Acceleration (m/s2) Force vs. Acceleration Run #2 I 0.347 0.0079 b -0.0467 t 0.012 r -0,976

Explanation / Answer

Purpose: To understand the significance of Newton's law of inertia by identifying inertia as a property of an object which depends on mass

Coclusion: Motion of objects depend on its mass . For low mass motion will be greater if same force is applied to other heavy body
