Physics Midterm Review 19-20

I add different masses to a spring scale and measure how far the spring stretches. What relationship am I looking for?

• How mass affects how far a spring stretches

• How mass affects the force of gravity

• How far a spring is capable of stretching before it breaks

• How mass affects projectile velocity

I add different masses to a spring scale and measure how far the spring stretches. What is the independent variable?

• Mass

• Air resistance

• Distance spring stretches

• Force of gravity

How would you linearize this graph?

• it is already linear

• Square the x values

• Invert the x values

• Square root the x values
