Terminal velocity. Set up an airtrack with the trolly and a large board at one end and a motion sensor at the other. The trolley is pulled by a mass and the board is used to create air resistance. Use the PASCO motion sensor to measure s-t.
Resources
Analysis
Create v-t and a-t graphs from the data and discuss the motion caused by the resultant force.
Equipment
1x airtrack 1x trolley 1x masses 1x PASCO motion sensor 1x large board
Safety
The masses must be free to fall without hitting anyone's foot.
Demonstration
Terminal vlocity. Barbie on a parachute from a high building.
Resources
Analysis
