16. What to know for test:
• Graphing motion:
– You should be able to describe the motion of an
object, given its displacement vs. time graph or velocity vs.
time graph
– What is the slope of a displacement vs. time graph?
– What is the slope of a velocity vs. time graph?
– What is the area under a velocity vs. time graph?
– What is the area under an acceleration vs. time graph?
• Use kinematic equations to solve motion problems
– What if there is an initial velocity in a free-fall problem?
• Study all of your homework problems for Chapter 2
• Study your vocabulary!
17. Grading
• Your folders should include…
– constant velocity lab
– One-dimensional motion quiz: Graded out of 14
points
– Kinematic stories – if you do not want your kinematic
stories, please donate them to me!
– Vocab 17-26
– Free-fall quiz: we will go over solutions
– G Whiz lab reports: we will go over lab report:
Graded out of 25 points
– Catapult grades
18. G Whiz Lab
• Grades are curved: graded out of 25 points instead of 33
Does a more massive object fall faster than a less massive one?
Were you able to calculate acceleration due to gravity close to
the accepted value?
19. Lab report comments
Experimental Design
Problem Definition Section • Materials and safety notes
– Make sure to list at least 2-3 safety notes
• Problem statement: What for the lab
are we trying to do in this • Constants in this lab?
– Time interval, dot timer used, if person
lab? dropping/holding dot timer were the
same, possibly length of tape was held
– Prove the accepted value constant
of gravity: 9.81 m/s2 – Some people put gravity as constant – this
is what we are trying to prove in this lab
– See if mass affects though
acceleration due to gravity • Procedure should be in sufficient detail
so that it could be reproduced
• Hypothesis should – What side of the dot timer were the
washers?
address the problem – How was the dot timer held when paper
statement(s) was dropped through?
– Draw pictures of procedures if necessary
20. Lab report comments
• Data Presentation Section
• Include a “data presentation” section in report. Tell reader to see attached
tables & graphs if they are attached at the back of the lab report
• Tables
– Add a border and center text for tables done on excel
– Title tables
• Calculations & Equations used
– Include this information here instead of in discussion & conclusion section
– First show equations, then sample calculations using those equations
– Show one sample calc for all calculations done
• Graphs
– Make sure to give a descriptive title to graphs (not just the default title given by
excel)
21. Lab report •
Conclusion
Be explicit about how IV affected DV…”The IV, which
was the # of washers, had an affect on the DV, the
comments distance between dots…”
– Refer back to your hypothesis: were your right?
• Refer to specific data collected: refer to a specific table
Discussion Questions or data point in graph; use this information to support
your conclusion
• Make sure to answer questions so • Validity: Can someone reproduce this lab and get the
that reader knows question without same results? Were there major errors that invalidate
looking at question. your data?
– Were the # of trials appropriate for this lab?
• Use data to support your answers – Were the procedures followed through consistently ?
• Do not show calculations in this Were things held constant that should have been? Or
should other things have been held constant that were

• #4: Must divide the time by 60. • What improvements would you make in the lab in the

it and discuss your results!
