Practical Activity 14-16

Demonstration: You can use the formula F = ma to calibrate a forcemeter without using gravity. It is difficult to do with...

Practical Activity 14-16

Demonstration: This experiment illustrates a fundamental point about the nature of measurement, as well as providing a way of...

Practical Activity 14-16

Demonstration: A trolley experiences an acceleration when an external force is applied to it. The aim of this datalogging...

Practical Activity 14-16

Demonstration: This provides an active way to vary measurement of distances, velocities and acceleration.

Practical Activity 14-16

Demonstration: This demonstration is rather fussy to set up, but produces good results.

Practical Activity 14-16

This detailed experiment involves measurement of acceleration.

Practical Activity 14-16

Class practical: Students can quickly see that force and mass have opposite effects on acceleration.

Practical Activity 14-16

Students will have discovered that: a constant force accelerates a given mass with constant acceleration; doubling the force...
