Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass times acceleration. This can be investigated using a set-up like this one. You can use this set-up to investigate how changing two separate factors, ...

1. For the total mass of each glider, calculate the value of 1/mass. For example, 100 g has a mass of 0.1 kg. The value of 1/mass is 1/0.1 = 10 /kg. 2. Plot a line graph with acceleration on the ...

In science, there are thousands of ways to measure the world around us that the average person may never encounter. For example: Pascals to measure pressure, Candles to measure light intensity, and ...
