1. Did Data Table 1 and the trends displayed in your acceleration graphs generally support the predictions of Newton's Second Law? In other words, did the acceleration of your cart increase or decrease as the mass of your hanger weight increased. Support your answer with data and discuss.

2. Did Data Table 2 and the trends displayed in your acceleration graphs generally support the predictions of Newton's Second Law. In other words, did the acceleration of your cart increase or decrease as the mass of your cart increased. Support your answer with data and discuss.

3.For Data Table 1 explain why a plot of acceleration vs hanging mass does not result in a straight line? Hint (the weight of the hanging mass does not cause the acceleration)

For Data Table 2 plot acceleration versus the reciprocal of the mass. Don't forget to label your axis (with units) and provide a title for your graph. According to Newton's Second Law why is this graph linear (straight line)?

A particle moves along the x axis. The function x(t) gives the particle's position at any time t > 0. The function v(t) gives the particle's velocity at any time t > 0. The function a(t) gives the particle's acceleration at any time t > 0.

()=3322+23

()=924+2

()=184

What is the particle's velocity at v(t) at time = 2.

What is the particle's acceleration a(t) at t = 4?

What is the direction of the particle's motion at t = 4?

At t = 4 is the particles speed (not velocity) increasing, decreasing, or neither?

What were probable sources of systematic errors and/or random errors in your experimental determination of acceleration.
