Exploration 1 Force diagrams, net force and acceleration Consider a cart on a frictionless surface with a light string attached, hanging over a pulley, as in the picture below. Consider the situation after the hanging mass has been released from rest. M \w%@dr ; - h Exploration 1.1.a Draw two force diagrams — one for the cart and one for the hanging mass in the space below.
= Exploration 1.1.b Does the force of the string, Fs, on the hanging mass equal the gravitational e force on the hanging mass (after release from rest)? Explain. ~ Exploration 1.1.c If the hanging mass, my, after release from rest is moving, explain the motion = in terms of the net force on mu. If your explanation contradicts your answer to part 1.1.b, explain . or reconsider your answer to 1.1.b. Exploration 1.1.d If, after the hanging mass, my, is released from rest, the cart is moving, explain in terms of the net force on the cart. Is the net force on the cart greater than, less than or equal to mpg? Explain. Exploration 1.1.e. After the hanging mass, mn, is released from rest, would the cart and the hanging mass move at the same acceleration? Explain. \ \n:\f.\ifil»:-@;\;‘; —-¢4>4‘¢a-smm;m%éwfi%k‘(m mj G ‘i g\ 2 - o ,‘? v f;' : :‘ § Exploration 1.1.e.

Exploration 2 Graphs of acceleration for constant force Exploration 2.1 Suppose the cart mass can be changed by adding masses to the cart. Sketch a graph of the acceleration plotted vs. cart mass + hanger mass in the space below based on your equation in part 1.1.e. Exploration 2.2 If you were to take data, measuring the acceleration of the cart for different masses added to the cart, what could you plot that would give you a straight line? What would be on the x- axis? What would be on the y- axis? What would the slope be? What physical quantity does the slope represent? Show your work and explain.

Exploration 3 Accelerating the cart with a different net force and constant total mass Exploration 3.1 Since the surface is very low friction, it is possible to consider the cart and mass hanger as one system. What is the net force on the system? Explain. e A tn i Exploration 3.2 How could you change the net force on the system and keep the total mass of the system constant? Explain. "!i' b L 4 L ] AN Jid I X j i\ Y ! i ‘.""1 WY Exploration 3.3 If you were to take data, constantly changing the net force on the system, but keeping the total mass the same, what quantity could you plot vs. met force to give a straight line? Explain. Sketch the graph below. f What physical quantity does the slope of the line represent? Explain in words and equations.

A data table and graphs for position versus time, velocity versus time, and force versus time will open automatically. 5) Calibrate the force probe with 2 N pull using one point calibration. (Click on Menu Bar — Experiment — Calibrate) 6) Zero both the force probe and the motion detector. (Click on Menu Bar — Experiment — Zero) 7) Using only the cart and the force probe, release the cart and start recording data. Store the data (Click on Menu Bar — Experiment — Store Latest Run). 8) Add 200g to the cart and repeat step (7). Keep adding masses until you reach 800g, and store the data each time (Click on Menu Bar — Experiment — Store Latest Run). 81

Explain why they changed or stayed constant and, if they changed, briefly describe how they changed. (For example, did the slope increase, decrease or remain the same? Did constant values Increase decrease or remain the same?) 82
