Project #3366 on iSENSEProject.org
Description
The purpose of this lab is to determine the effect of potential energy on kinetic energy. Data was collected by six teams, in three separate projects then combined. However, data is still best view using one data set at a time.
The first set of data shows the velocity when a marble is rolled down a tube that is 1.5 meters long with a starting height of 72 cm.
The second set changes the ramp height to 110 centimeter.
The third set changes the ramp height to 122 centimeters
The goal is to show that the higher the ramp height (position) or the bigger the potential energy, the higher the kinetic energy (velocity) the marble has.
