Error In Centripetal Force Experiment


Recommended Posts

Posted

A small cart with 100g mass was placed on a track mounted on a circular platter. The cart was attached to a string passing though the central axis of the platter. The string was attached to a force sensor. We spun the platter and data studio recorded the time.

 

 

 

Name the two most significant sources of error in this experiment. Are these errors likely to be random or systematic?

 

 

Describe some ways that the error in this lab could be reduced, including the possible purchase of additional equipment

 

 

Not quite sure, please help!
