1 Experiments for finding ‘g’
Topic 9.2 Space

2 Syllabus Dot Point perform an investigation and gather information to determine a value for acceleration due to gravity using pendulum motion or computer-assisted technology and identify reason for possible variations from the value 9.8 ms-2

3 Option 1: Using a simulation
Phet Projectile Motion sim Phet Pendulum Lab sim Phet Mass & Springs Lab sim

4 Phet Projectile Motion sim http://phet. colorado
v = uy - gt g = uy/t

5 Phet Pendulum Lab sim http://phet. colorado
T = 2p.SQRT(l/g) T2 = 4p2l/g g = 4p2.l/T2

6 Phet Mass & Springs Lab sim http://phet. colorado
T = 2p.SQRT(x/g) T2 = 4p2.x/g g = 4p2.x/ T2

7 Option 2: Video analysis
Dropped ball Oscillating mass on spring Cart accelerating down inclined ramp

8 Option 3. Data Logging Vernier – Determining ‘g’ on an Incline
Motion sensor – dropped ball
