Physics 211 Experiment 1: Free Fall - Determining the acceleration of gravity Prior to Lab: Derive the numbered equations (Equations 1‚ 2 and 3) in the lab instructions using the definitions of velocity and acceleration (a=dv/dt and v=dy/dt). Object: The object of this experiment is to determine the value of the acceleration of gravity by measuring the rate of acceleration of a freely falling object. In addition‚ one will be able to compare theory with experiment for constantly accelerated

Physics 211 Experiment #4 Newton’s Second Law – Atwood’s Machine Newton’s second law (FNET = ma) can be experimentally tested with an apparatus known as an “Atwood’s Machine” (See Figure 1.) Two weights of unequal mass‚ connected by a thread‚ are draped over a pulley‚ as shown in the figure. When released‚ the larger mass accelerates downward and the smaller one accelerates upward. Figure (1a): The Atwood’s Machine‚ showing the pulley and the two masses after a run. Figure (1b): A close
