Data
Table 1:
Elapsed Time(s) | Displacement (cm) |
0.1 | 1.9 |
0.2 | 4.1 |
0.3 | 5.8 |
0.4 | 8.0 |
0.5 | 10.1 |
0.6 | 11.9 |
0.7 | 14.0 |
0.8 | 16.2 |
0.9 | 18.2 |
Use data recorded in Table 1 to plot a graph of the displacement of the cart (vertical axis) as a function of time (horizontal axis.) Plot the straight line of best fit. Determine the slope of the line in your graph by selecting two points on the line (don't select points from Table 1). This is the velocity of the cart.
