Force = Mass x Acceleration
Problem
Does the amount of force affect the acceleration of an object.
Hypothesis
If more force is exerted on a car, then the car will not
Conclusion
- When there is more force, the object accelerates faster.
- The more force you put on an object, the more acceleration it has.
Force = Mass x Acceleration
Problem
Does the amount of mass affect the acceleration of an object?
Hypothesis
If we test different masses on a car, the car with the most mass will have the lest acceleration.
Conclusion
- The more mass you put on a car, the less acceleration it has.
- The heavier the mass of the car is the slower it goes. There isn't as much acceleration.
- You would decrease the mass to something smaller.
Q: How does this lab represent Newton's First Law of Motion?
A: The car was still until you applied a force on it. Then it became an unbalanced force.
