Physics

2. Objectives
To find the relationship between the amount of time the Velocity Cars take with the amount of distance they cover
To find the relationship in accordance to velocity and acceleration

3. Velocity Car: Each group has one A Meter Stick Time Stopwatch Mass
Materials Used
Velocity Car: Each group has one
A Meter Stick
Time Stopwatch
Mass
500g

4. Time Stopwatch Recorder Meterstick Measurer
Roles for this Lab
4 people per group
Time Stopwatch Recorder
Meterstick Measurer
Data Recorder (One person per group is responsible to record the data for time per distance)
Velocity Car Caretaker (make sure that the velocity car don’t wonder off anywhere else)

5. Instructions
Lay a meterstick on the ground along with the Velocity Car
You are to start out with NO mass first!!
It is important that the Data Collector records all the times
Stop the Car first, record the times then start from the beginning for accurate measurements
You should have 5 sets of data : 20 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm,
80 cm, and 100 cm
6. After you are done with all the five recorded measurements, you may place the 500 g mass on the car.
7. Collect five measurements

6. Data Template (Should have two: with and without mass)
Time (s)
Position (cm) to meters
