Experimental Setup Normally, this section describes the experimental setup and should include the photo or a schematic of the setup as well as the text description and the experimental procedure. The schematic can be very simple, such as shown in Figure 1. Briefly describe all the parts of your figure. Descriptions like Figure 1a or Figure 1 (left) can be used. Note the formatting of the figure reference and the caption. No colored text unless required by context. a) Ruler b) Ball Figure 1: The experimental setup schematic. A ruler (a) is used to measure the object (b). The list and details of each section in the lab report are outlined in Table 1. Note that you should not put any words like below, above, last page, etc. The reference to the table, figure, equation, and other numbered items is the only indication where to find the information. The IEEE format should be used for references, such as [1]. The equipment manufacturer may be referenced like [2]. You can have two or more references in a row, for example: [1], [3]. Allow word processing software to do all the numbering and formatting! For the online labs, the relevant screenshot should be used, such as in Figure 2. Theory Consider the equation 1 that described the dependence of position x on time. 1 x= at² + vot + xo 2 (1) where a is the acceleration, t is time, vo is the initial velocity and x is the initial position. You will use Excel or similar software and the eq. 1 to complete this assignment. You will write the report using the format that is described in this manual. Analysis To analyze the eq. 1, you will first set up the problem. For initial position, use the following: RAND()*100. For initial velocity: =RAND(0) *20. For the acceleration:=RAND()*5. And for error bars: =(0.4+RAND()*200. Set up the time column. You can start at 0 or any other value, the increment should be at least 2 seconds, and create at least 50 points. (Hint - don't just type all numbers manually!). Enter the eq. 1 into the column called position or distance (remember units for each!! Remember static cells with $$). Make the scatter plot - no connecting lines etc., only dots. Set the error bars to the value in 'error bars'. Add trendline (what type should it be and why?). Show the fit equation. Do the fit parameters correspond to the ones that you set initially? Remember to label the axis! All helpful hints are in the video that is provided. Other resources also exist!
