Join us for a dynamic mini-lab on constant acceleration motion! You'll explore four engaging activities: Free-fall with a Picket Fence and Basketball, and Fan Cart experiments using Blue and Red fans. Each station allows you 15 minutes to gather data through sensors and photo gates. Record and analyze position vs. time (X vs. T), velocity vs. time (V vs. T), and acceleration vs. time (A vs. T) graphs. Make predictions, perform calculations, and experience hands-on learning in motion physics. Don't forget to turn in your Frictionless Car Lab report!

Constant acceleration motion medley mini lab GRAB A MINI-LAB WS from the front Reminder: Turn in your Frictionless Car Lab report if you haven’t already.
ANNOUNCEMENTS QUIZ TOMORROW Drawing X vs. T, V vs. T, A vs. T, and Motion Maps for Constant Acceleration Motion
There are 4 different activities to do: • Free-fall: Picket Fence (Lab stations 4, 5) • Free-fall: Basketball (Lab Stations 1,3) • Fan Cart: Blue Fans (Lab Stations 8,9) • Fan Cart: Red Fans (Lab Stations 6,7) • YOU WILL HAVE 15 MINUTES TO DO EACH STATION Mini-Lab Medley
Description: You will be dropping a “Picket Fence” through a Photo Gate Free-Fall: Picket fence
Hit “Collect” • Drop the Picket Fence through the PhotoGate • Record the positions and associated times (i.e. the time at that particular position) • Calculate the ∆t and ∆x for each interval and then velocity • Note: This will probably be different than what the computer will say. Free-Fall: Picket fence
Use our LoggerPro tricks to find the slope of the V vs. T graph and acceleration • Note: You might need to average the accelerations to find a good value • Select data and clicking “Stats”. Look for the mean. Free-Fall: Picket fence
Description: You will be tossing a basketball up above a motion detector Free-Fall: Basketball
DO NOW: Make your predictions as to what the X vs. T, V vs. T, and A vs. T graph will look like. • Hit “Collect” • Toss the basketball into the air above the sensor. • It doesn’t have to be too high, as long as your graph seems smooth and consistent Free-Fall: Basketball
Record the graph of X vs. T, V vs. T, and A vs. T • Record the value of acceleration • Note: Might have to find the mean • Fill in the table Free-Fall: Basketball
Description: You will be measuring the motion of the cart as it moves away, then comes back to the sensor Fan Cart: Blue Fans
DO NOW: Make your predictions. Do part e • Hit “Collect” • Give the cart a gentle push away from the motion detector. • It doesn’t have to be too hard. • Let the cart go away and come back towards the motion detector. • Stop it before it hits the motion detector Fan Cart: Blue Fans
Answer parts a-d, and f-j Fan Cart: Blue Fans
Description: You will be measuring the motion of the cart as it goes towards, then away from the sensor Fan Cart: RED Fans
DO NOW: Make your predictions. Do parts e • Hit “Collect” • Give the cart a gentle push towards the motion detector. • It doesn’t have to be too hard. • Let the cart go towards the motion detector then away. • Don’t let it hit the motion detector Fan Cart: redFans
Answer parts a-d, and f-j Fan Cart: red Fans
