Researcher Name: Reagyn Beckwith DA Name: Sierra Butler PI Name: Zach Scott Lab 5 Worksheet Use the data you have organized to answer the following questions. LAB DATA PART 1 LAB DATA PART 2
Researcher 1: Include a description of how force and stretch were determined as they are not directly measured (a Free Body Diagram is required). This experiment included finding the exerted force by using Newton’s second law of f=mg. The mass for this equation was found and recorded during the experiment. The gravitational force is a known value of 9.8 𝑚 𝑠 2 . The values of mass and gravitational force were then multiplied to find the exerted force. To find the stretch, measurements from the length of each spring were recorded before mass was added and then measured again with the added mass. The next step was to find the total measurement of the actual stretch experienced by the spring. This was done by subtracting the length of the stretched spring from the length of the unstretched spring. DA 1: Create a “ Force vs Stretch Data table” for at least one spring (like Prelab question 2 but with all the raw data included as well) as well as a scatter plot (Force on the y axis and stretch on the x axis) showing the data for all three springs (with trend lines and equations for all three springs). If you can’t achieve clarity with careful labelling, you can have multiple scatter plots. RED SPRING Stretch Force 0.64255 2.153942 0.62055 2.643942 0.60855 3.133942 0.60055 3.623942 0.57855 4.113942
