We will finish this lab first thing on Wednesday if we did not finish it today.
Big Pictures:
1. The last lab (Factors That Affect Acceleration) removed friction with the vacuum cleaner so only Force and Added Mass was taken into account. In Push That Truck Lab we let the truck coast (- acceleration) thus taking the friction between the tires and the road into account as we calculate the total force on average each student pushed.
2. The whole class working as a team to accomplish collecting the necessary data for this lab in one class period.
