Question about prac.. (1 Viewer)

[zelda]

i got a practical assessment soon...
the task is to:
-design, record and carry out an experiment to determine an acceleration
-identify variables and design an experiment involving acceleration

this is based on the module "Space"

I think that the pendulum experiment could be one...what else could there be?? appreciate your thoughts

You could drop an object between two light gates and use a data logger to determine the acceleration or let an object attached to a ticker timer fall and measure the change in speed for say, each successive 5 dots (1/10th of a second).
