Write a report on the lap experiment: Motion with Constant Acceleration

Purpose: To observe how an object’s position and velocity change while it is moving with a constant acceleration.

Question: How does an object’s position and velocity change as the object accelerates?

Hypothesis: If the fan speed increases, then the acceleration of the cart increases, because a greater fan speed supplies more energy to move the cart.

Variables:

• Independent variable: fan speed

• Dependent variable: acceleration of the cart

• Controlled variables: mass

Materials:

• Cart with Fan (1 kg)

• CM ruler (1 cm)

• Stop watch (0.0 cm pe sec)

• Flag

Procedure:

1. Use the setup on “Force and Fan Carts” Gizmo.

2. First, put the fan speed on low and no friction surface.

3. Press the start button and record the final time when the cart crosses the finished line. Record on table B.

4. Then, click on the data tab to record the speed data, total distance, average velocity, and acceleration. Record on table A and B.

5. After, observe the position vs. time graph with the speed and line graph toggled. Record on table C.

6. Repeat steps 2-5 on fan speed on medium and high with no friction surface.

7. Next, reset and put fan speed on low.

8. Press start and pause on 4 seconds.

9. On the same trial turn off the fan speed and hit start again.

10. Observe the graph and write observations on table D.

Analysis and Conclusion:

In conclusion, my hypothesis matches the data, because the data shows that increasing the fan speed increases the acceleration of the cart. The trends for all fan speeds are linear slope for speed. The higher the fan speed, the less time it took for the cart to cross the finish line.
