Objective: To see if Newton's first Law force require to change speed in direction of a moving object.
Hypothesis: It would be greater if it take the force of speed. As a result of the cart it would take more force to change speed or direction of a moving object.
Materials:
-Hall’s Cart200
-gram mass
-Spring
-scale
-String
Procedure:
1. Use the same setup from experiment
2. Start moving at a slow speed by pulling on the string scale.
3. Then quickly pull harder to accelerate the speed of the speed. Repeat 4-5 times while reading the scale.
4. Start rolling slowly by pulling on the spring scale and then pull the scale in a wide arc to change the direction of the cart. Repeat 4-5 times.
5. Record the maximum force for both.
Data: Trial Start Finish
1.) .5n 1n2.
2.) .5n 5n3.
3.) .5n 2n4.
4.).5n 2n5.
5.).5n 1.5n
Conclusion: My hypothesis was correct. I see that when objects with less force and are small move it has a greater chance of going with the force. It had move of a force feild so it was easier to tell.
Real World: We ca apply this in our everyday life when we leave small object around when there a greater force then it.
