Question

Design a lab to measure the distance an accelerated object moves over time. Use equal time intervals so that you can plot velocity over time as well as dis-tance. A pulley at the edge of a table with a mass attached is a good way to achieve uniform acceleration. Suggested materials include a motion detector, CBL, lab cart, string, pulley, C-clamp, and masses. Generate distance-time and velocity-time graphs using different masses on the pulley. How does the change in mass affect your graphs?
