LABORATORY 2: Motion
Introduction
Objects that move in a straight line with a constant speed — not
speeding up or slowing down —have zero acceleration. We call
this kind of motion Uniform Motion. We can identify uniform
motion when the object travels equal distance intervals in equal
times.
We can identify non-uniform motion, or accelerated motion,
when the object travels equal distance intervals in unequal
times. Finally, we have two types of non-uniform motion:
motion with constant acceleration and motion with a non-
constant (or changing) acceleration.
Activity 1
Today you will analyze the motion of a cart traveling along an
inclined track. You will begin by doing a thought experiment,
predicting the motion of your object. Discuss your ideas among
your group…it is okay to disagree!
Sketch an acceleration-versus-time graph for an object, starting
with some initial speed, traveling on a flat track. Remember,
this sketch is a prediction; what do you think it would look
like? Then sketch a velocity-versus-time graph for the same
case.
1. Explain the shape of your acceleration graph.

2. 2. Explain the shape of your velocity graph.
Sketch an acceleration-versus-time graph and a velocity-versus-
time graph for an object, starting with some initial speed,
traveling down an inclined track.
3. Explain the shape of your acceleration graph.
4. Explain the shape of your velocity graph

3. Activity 2
Now, using a track, cart meter stick and stopwatches, you will
make some measurements to determine if a cart travelling down
a ramp is follows uniform or non-uniform motion.
First, mark a start point and end point on your track that is at
least 1.5m long.
5. How many time/distance data points, between start and end,
will be necessary to determine whether the cart is travelling
with uniform or non-uniform motion? Explain your choice.
Note: you may want to look at Questions 8 & 9 to help inform
your choice.
6.
Now, outline your measurement plan (procedure) to make this
determination of uniform or non-uniform motion. Your
procedure should include clear instructions, such that anyone
could reproduce your experiment exactly.

4. 7. Create a data table and record your data in the space below.
8.
Now you will need to use your data to calculate velocities and
accelerations. Recall that we have discussed average velocity as
vavg = Δx/Δt as well as vavg = (vi + vf)/2. We also discussed
average acceleration as aavg = Δv/Δt. Using these equations,
calculate the final velocity of your cart at each distance/time
data point and the average acceleration between each pair of
distance/time data points. When you have completed your
calculations, organize your results into a table with five
columns: distance, time, average velocity, final velocity, and
average acceleration.

5. 9. Now you will graph your results. Plotting [1] a graph of
position (y-axis) vs. time (x-axis); [2] a graph of final velocity
(y-axis) vs. time (x-axis); and [3] a graph of acceleration (y-
axis) vs. time (x-axis). Be sure to fully label your graphs. This
may be done on a computer or on graph paper. Attach your
graphs to the back of this packet.
10. Based on your data and results, answer the lab questions:
does a cart travelling down a ramp follow uniform or non-
uniform motion?If it follows non-uniform motion, is the
acceleration constant or non-constant? Support your answer
with evidence from your experiment.
11. Are you confident in your answer to question 10? Explain
why or why not.
12. Now, compare your answer (and resulting graphs) to the
prediction sketches you made in Activity 1. Do your predictions

6. match your results? If not, which do you believe (prediction or
results) and why?
13. Finally, take some time to evaluate your procedure. Do you
think it was an effective procedure? Were there any problems
with it? How would you change/improve upon the procedure if
you were to repeat this experiment?

Purpose of the Assessment
The purpose of this assessment is to assess
the student in the following learning
outcomes:
Competent (C) Not Yet Competent (NYC)
SITXFIN002 Interpret financial information
1.1.Identify and interpret the range of financial

10. information and reports required to monitor
business performance.
1.2.Interpret financial information and reports
applicable to operational or departmental activities.
2.1.Review financial information for impacts on
operational activities and resolve discrepancies
according to own level of responsibility.
2.2.Routinely provide information on operational or
departmental financial activities within required
timelines.
Assessment/evidence gathering conditions
Each assessment component is recorded as either Competent (C)
or Not Yet Competent (NYC). A student can
only achieve competence when all assessment components listed
under “Purpose of the assessment” section
are recorded as competent. Your trainer will give you feedback
after the completion of each assessment. A

11. student who is assessed as NYC (Not Yet Competent) is eligible
for re-assessment.
Resources required for this Assessment
• Computer with relevant software applications and access to
internet
• Weekly eLearning notes relevant to the tasks/questions
Instructions for Students
Please read the following instructions carefully
• This assessment has to be completed In class At home
• The assessment is to be completed according to the
instructions given by your assessor.
• Feedback on each task will be provided to enable you to

will be provided with feedback on your work within two weeks
of the assessment due date. All other
feedback will be provided by the end of the term.
• Should you not answer the questions correctly, you will be
given feedback on the results and your gaps in
knowledge. You will be given another opportunity to
demonstrate your knowledge and skills to be deemed
competent for this unit of competency.
• If you are not sure about any aspect of this assessment, please
ask for clarification from your assessor.
• Please refer to the College re-assessment and policy for more
