I am at a lost on how go about this lab. Does anyone know how to do this? I am supposed to use a car and record data

ACTIVITY 2

In this activity you will graph the motion of an object moving with a constant velocity. The speed of the object can be calculated by allowing the Constant Velocity Vehicle to travel a given distance and measuring the time that it took to move this distance. As seen in Activity 1, this measurement will only provide the average speed. In this activity, you will collect time data at several travel distances, plot these data, and analyze the graph 1. Find and clear a straight path approximately two meters long. 2. Install the batteries and test the vehicle. 3. Use your tape measure or ruler to measure a track two meters long. The track should be level and smooth with no obstructions. Make sure the surface of the track provides enough traction for the wheels to turn without slipping. Place masking tape across the track at 25 cm intervals. 4. Set the car on the floor approximately 5 cm behind the start point of the track. 5. Set the stopwatch to the timing mode and reset the time to zero. 6. Start the car and allow the car to move along the track. 7. Start the stopwatch when the front edge of the car crosses the start point. 8. Stop the stopwatch when the front edge of the car crosses the first 25 cm point. 9. Recover the car, and switch the power off. Record the time and vehicle position on the data table. 10. Repeat steps #5?9 for each 25 cm interval marked. Each trial will have a distance that is 25 cm longer than the previous trial, and the stopwatch will record the time for the car to travel the individual trial distance. 11. Record the data in Data Table 1. Note: The vehicle should be able to travel two meters in a generally straight path. If the vehicle veers significantly to one side, you may need to allow the vehicle to travel next to a wall. The friction will affect the vehicle's speed, but the effect will be uniform for each trial. Note: Starting the car a short distance before the start point allows the vehicle to reach its top speed before the time starts and prevents the short period of acceleration from affecting the data.

Lab Report: Kinematics Assignment Instructions

Overview

Laboratory reports are an essential component of a physics education.

Instructions

Download this document and record the results for each table. Activities 1-3 are to be performed for this exercise. All photos, data tables, and discussion must be submitted

Activity 1

Submit a photo of the final graph of data table given in Activity 1 labeled with your name and the date.

Activity 2

Record time at various positions below in Activity 2, Table 1 per the details in Activity 2 laboratory exercise instructions. Graph the points from Activity 2 Table 1 and draw a line of best fit and determine the slope of the line. Graph paper is included below or is available by printing from the laboratory exercise instructions. This is the speed of the car.

Submit a photo of the graph and your work to determine the speed of the car.
