3. Velocity (v) = distance time
Acceleration (a) = change in velocity
Force of the cart (F=ma)

4. What were your general observations?
As more weight was added, the car may have moved farther? Why?

5. PROVE IT USING YOUR DATA and two GRAPHS Force vs Distance
The car will likely move farther with more weight…
