  1. x(t) curve vx(t) curve Lab 4 – The Mass-Dependence of Friction Motion sensor Cart Track • Objectives: • Derive equations for N, f, µ. • Acquire data and calculate N, f, µ. • Determine which of N, f, µ are dependent on mass, both theoretically and experimentally.

  2. Prep questions These prep questions are challenging.

  3. Experimental set-up x t vx t +x direction Motion sensor Cart Track Masses Set up the equipment as shown here, with the track slightly sloped by masses beneath the left-hand side of the track. Give the cart a gentle push up the track and collect data.

  4. Central concept It is possible to both predict and verify behavior, as you will do in this experiment.
