Adelinne Wenger Analyzing an Object in Uniform Motion Lab #4 10/21/15 Mr. Glasel Period 5 Purpose: To examine the motion of an object moving with constant velocity. Introduction In this lab our goal is to be able to examine the motion of an object with constant velocity. We measured the speed of a toy cart using a tick timer and timer tape. While the timer tape is under the tick timer dots are being burned onto the tape. The distance between dots on a ticker tape represents the object's position change during that time interval. When the tape is taken out and examined we can see that the first few dots are all over the place but then the rest of the dots are spaced out evenly. That shows us that the cart underwent constant velocity. Procedure
