Ticker Tape Lab

Purpose To see how position, velocity, and acceleration are connected

Theory The tickertape apparatus can produce 60 dots or (ticks) in one second. This means that the there is one tick every 1/60th of a second By measuring the position from the origin of every 10 ticks, a position time graph can be made. Note: 10 ticks = 0.1 seconds

Apparatus Ticker tape timer Carbon Paper 50 g mass Masking tape Metre stick Graph Paper

Procedure Create your data 2) Using the data from the table make a position-time graph 3) Calculate the velocity for each time interval 4) Using this data, create a velocity-time graph 5) Take the slope of the velocity-time graph

Make a position-time graph Time (s) Position from origin (m) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4
