Laws of uniformly acceleration motion with the 2-1 timer

Principle

In this experiment, pupils will examine acceleration in an example of motion under constant acceleration, and they will sum up the laws of motion in the form of graphs. By comparing slopes contained in the s/t² and the v/t graphs, the proportionality factor k in the relation s = k t² can be determined to be approximately a/2. This way, the relationship s = 1/2 a t² is made to be more understandable.

Benefits

• Especially accurate and reproducible results due to the use of light barriers and the Timer 2-1
• Timer 2-1 can be used for versatile applications, for example for teacher experiments due to ist great display
• Very modern student experiments which fully cover the curriculum subject "Motion"
