Question
Consider three masses, mA, mB and mc, where mA>mB>mc. Each mass is pulled by the same constant force, as in the picture below, and the velocity is measured as a function of time. Below is the velocity graph as a function of time for each of the masses. Indicate which line on the graph (1, 2 or 3) represents the velocity vs. time plot for each mass. Explain your reasoning. A student is doing Lab 3: Motion in One Dimension. The student places 50 g on the cart and 50 g one the hanger, then measures the acceleration. The student then moves 10 g from the cart to the hanger. What happens to the acceleration? Show any calculations and explain your reasoning.Explanation / Answer
higher mass have less acceleration ..... slope of curve gives the acceleration ... hence less slope means less acceleration and higher mass.... curve 1 have more slope means have less mass that is mc ..... cuve 2 ............mB ............. curve 3 ..........least slope have more mass ,, hence curve 3......mA ........ curve1 ---- MC curve2 ----MB .... ...........Curve3 ----MA
