Phys 1020 Physics Concepts I Names: Section: Date: Phys 1020 Lab 6 Report Activity 1-1: Acceleration and Mass 5. Record the value of the hanging mass: kg Table 1-1 (1 point) Mass of cart (cart masses) Average applied force (N) Average acceleration (m/s2) 1.0 1 1.16 1.3 1 .92 1.6 1 .73 1.9 1 .61 2.2 1 .55 Print your graphs. 3. Mass of cart equals 2.2 cart masses (1 point) Activity 1-2: Accelerating a Cart with a Different Mass Prediction 1-1: Suppose that you remove mass from the cart until it is 1.0 cart mass, and accelerate it with a similar applied force . Compare the acceleration to that of the larger mass cart. (1 point) I believe that the acceleration will go up then slowly down until it stops. Page 1 of 3 .1 Before you leave: 1. Clean up your lab table 2. Shut down computer
Phys 1020 Physics Concepts I 1. Mass of cart equals 1.0 cart masses (1 point) Question 1-1: Did the acceleration agree with your prediction? Explain (1 point) It did. It appears to hit its max acceleration then slowed down until it stopped. 3. Repeat using 1.3 cart masses. It is not necessary to print this graph 4, Repeat using 1.6 and 1.9 cart masses. It is not necessary to print these graphs. Activity 1-4: Relationship Between Acceleration and Mass Question 1-2: Does the acceleration of the cart increase, decrease, or remain the same as the mass of the cart is increased? (1 point) It decreases 3. Print your graph: (1 point) Page 2 of 3
Phys 1020 Physics Concepts I Question 1-3: What appears to be the mathematical relationship between acceleration and mass of the cart, when the applied force is kept constant? (1 point) The more mass, the slower acceleration is Question 1-4: In the previous lab, you found that the acceleration of the cart was proportional to the combined applied force when the mass of the cart was not changes. State in words the general relationship between the applied force, the mass, and the acceleration of that cart that you have found in these two labs. If the combined force is ∑F , the mass is m , and the acceleration is a , write a mathematical relationship that relates these three physical quantities. (2 points) Ma = F. Mass times the acceleration will get the combined force. Page 3 of 3
