Experimental Design Practice FRQ - Circular Motion

AP Physics FRQ practice for an Experimental Design problem In this YouTube video, we explore the Unit 3 FRQ question about designing a lab to estimate acceleration due to gravity. We analyze variables like string length, block mass, motor speed, and angle. By creating a free body diagram, we establish equations for tension and acceleration. Our lab design involves graphing AC and tan Theta to find G, using measured values of velocity, radius, and string length. Multiple trials and averaging should be done. We discuss different graphing approaches and stress the need for clear explanations. Join us to learn more and ask questions!
