QUIZ ON FRIDAY

11. Speed, Velocity, Acceleration Lab
Problem: What factors and forces affect the speed and acceleration of a moving object?
Procedures:
Make an inclined plane by placing one end of the ruler on the starting point and the other on 3 stacked books.
Place golf ball at the top of the incline and let it accelerate down the ruler.
Begin timing when the golf ball crosses the starting point. (bottom of ramp)
Stop the timer when it crosses the 100 cm mark and record the time in the data table. Repeat these steps for a total of 3 trials.
Repeat these steps for 200 cm, 300 cm, and 400 cm distances.
Calculate the speeds at each distance and graph the time and distance on the graph.
