Practical - Force and Acceleration

The video tutorial demonstrates an experiment to explore the relationship between force and acceleration with a constant mass. Catherine uses a dynamics trolley and falling masses to measure acceleration, employing a stopwatch and calculations. The experiment setup includes a runway, trolley, and pulley system. Results are analyzed to show that acceleration is directly proportional to force, with a graph illustrating this relationship. The tutorial concludes with a discussion on ensuring accurate results and the importance of maintaining constant mass.
