Explanation & Answer
Hey, I've completed this assignment. If you have any queries, I'm always here to help 😊.
Post-Lab Questions:
1. The magnitude of force decreased in both spring scales after the 10 N spring scale was moved.
2. The magnitude of force decreased in both spring scales after the 5 N spring scale was moved;
however, the decrement in magnitude was not as large as when 10 N spring scale was moved.
3. It does abide by Newton’s 3rd law of motion since if I pull with a certain downward force on the
spring at the bottom, then that spring can pull on the spring scale above it in order to cancel out
the force of me pulling down.
4. There was no distinction in readings when the mass was straightforwardly appended to the
scale versus at the point when the mass was connected by means of the string. Given that the
string has negligible mass, a similar mass was pulling down on the scale in the two occasions.
5. Based on the results in parts 5 and 6 of the experiment, it can be concluded that a string of
negligibly small mass can have equal tension on every end of the string.
6. The acceleration at t = 0 is calculated by:
x(t) =
a(t) =
a(t) =
a(0) =
a(0) =
