Lab Report: Newton’s Second Law
Trial: 1
|Mass of cart with sensors (kg) |0.877 kg |
|Regression line for force vs. acceleration data |
|Y= 0.8325x + 0.05480 |
| |Force pulling cart (N) |Acceleration (m/s²) |
|Force closest to 1.0 N |1.006 |1.27 |
|Force closest to -1.0 N |-1.009 |-1.15 |
[pic]
Trial: 2
|Mass of sensors with additional mass (kg) |1.377 kg |
|Regression line for force vs. acceleration data |
|Y= 1.47x + 0.007312 |
| |Force pulling cart (N) |Acceleration (m/s²) |
|Force closest to 1.0 N |1.018 |0.69 |
|Force closest to -1.o N |-1.004 |-0.69 |

2. The net force on an object and the acceleration of the object are directly proportional. They are directly proportional because, when the net force increases and decreases the acceleration also increases and decreases.
