Data for total mass changes , net force constant : Mass difference: m 2 - m 1
Question:
- Data for total mass changes, net force constant:
Mass difference:m2- m1=_ _ _ _ _ kg Net force:Fnet = (m2- m1)g=_ _ _ _ _ N
m1(g) | m2 (g) | am (m/s2) measured |
50 | 60 | 13.36 |
70 | 80 | 10.27 |
90 | 100 | 17.65 |
110 | 120 | 13.20 |
130 | 140 | 28.00 |
B) Calculate the total mass and the acceleration (use g=9.8 m/s2):
m1(kg) | m2 (kg) | mT (kg) | ac (m/s2) calculated | am (m/s2) measured | % error (amvs. ac) |
0.05 | 0.06 | 0.11 | |||
0.07 | 0.08 | 0.15 | |||
0.09 | 0.10 | 0.19 | |||
0.11 | 0.12 | 0.23 | |||
0.13 | 0.14 | 0.27 |
B) In Excel, Plot am (y axis)vs1/mT(x axis). Your graph should be scatter plots without line that connect the data points. Include the trendline and the trendline equation
Follow the rules for your plot:
Your graph should fill up a whole page, start your X and Y axis closer to the data points to eliminate the empty space in your graph. Edit the best fit line (trend line) equation to change Y and X to what you plot on Y and X axis, to match your plot.
D)What is the physical meaning of the slope? Discuss.
Slope=_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (Do not forget the units)
E)Calculate the % error between measured and calculated value.
