Running head : Newton ‘s Second Law Experiment Newton ‘s Second Law Experiment Name Institution Professor Class /Course Newton ‘s Second Law Experiment The experiment was all about Newton ‘s second law of motion . The experiment was done using a java program that simulates an air track glider setup . It uses the acceleration due to gravity of 9 .81 m /s2 . The mass of the wagon , the hanging mass , and the coefficient of friction were the variables used to determine the time it takes for the wagon to displace in a certain distance . There were five sub experiments all in all . The first sub experiment was about the controlled variables . The other four sub experiments were used to draw conclusion and relationships of time , displacement , velocity , and acceleration in Newton ‘s second law of motion .First sub experiment : Mass of the wagon 100 g Hanging mass 1 .0 g Coefficient of friction 0 .00 Second sub experiment Mass of wagon 200 g Hanging mass 1 .0 g Coefficient of friction 0 .00 Third sub experiment Mass of wagon 100 g Hanging mass 2 .0 g Coefficient of friction 0 .00 Fourth sub experiment Mass of wagon 100 g Hanging mass 1 .0 g Coefficient of friction 0 .001 Fifth sub experiment Mass of the wagon 500 g Hanging mass 5 .0 g Coefficient of friction 0 .005 As the mass of the wagon was increased to 200 g with hanging mass and coefficient of friction at original levels , the time it…
