Hi there this is my physicis assignment please help me get a A+

A ticker-timer is a device which can be used for recording both time and distance. A ticker-timer vibrates up and down every 1/50 second. The important fact about ticker-tapes is that the time between dots is always the same. Most ticker-timers work on alternating current, i.e. at 50 cycles per second; this is why there is 1/50th of a second between dots, or each dot will be made 1/50th of a second apart.

If set up correctly, the ticker-timer will leave a dark mark on a piece of ticker-tape. If this tape is attached to a moving object, a series of dots appear on the ticker-tape as it is pulled through the ticker-timer. The further apart the dots appear, the faster the object is travelling. The closer the dots, the slower the object. If the dots are equally spaced as on Tape 1 below, then the object has constant speed.

You need to write a very detailed general introduction atleast 200 words

Aim:

Hypothesis;

Apparatus: Needs to include a diagram A ticker-timer.

ticker timer
ticker tape
power pack supply and
connecting wires
pencil, ruler, scissors and glue

Method:

Result; I have attached the table which you need to fill in

Time (seconds) Distance (m) between dots Speed = distance / 0.02 Acceleration = (speed2 - speed1) / 0.02
0.02
0.04
0.06
0.08
0.1
0.12
0.14
0.16
0.18
And so on; if needed

Result qualitative and quantitative (220 words at least)

Find average acceleration:

Include atleast 3 graph to back your results

Discussion (maximum 600 words): Should include: 1. what happened (outline findings and what they mean. Eg how does result compare to what was expected) 2. what went wrong (errors) 3 what could be improved (eg different equipment etc). Write in pin point detail

Conclusion: Was your hypothesis supported or not?
