Lab

What did you do in the lab today? What did you learn from it?

we released the car with different weights. The car was towed by a bag with sand. We learned that as the weight that the acceleration in the car varies.

We used the motion detector and released the car. We used different weights in the car and had a baggy at the end of the table to pull the car off the edge. We learned that the more weight in the car makes the car move slower.

We tied a bag of sand to a car and let the sand pull it across the lab station. We learned that the lighter the weight the faster the acceleration. It was pretty interesting.

We used a motion detector to see how fast a car will accelerate with a counterweight. We learned the more wight that was in the car, the slower it accelerated. It taught me a lot about physics.

We learned the more weight you have attached to the car the faster the acceleration. Tbe heavier the car is the slower the car accelerates. Mass and acceleration are inversely porportional when compared to the sum vector.
