HOME EXPERIMENT: Motion Graphs with Freefall

By Category :

Back to: Secondary 4 Chapter 2: Forces and Motion I

We may not have a photogate or ticker timer at home, but we can still study motion in our home experiments!

In this lesson, Ms Hoo shows you how to take a video of an object free falling (falling with gravitational acceleration), and how to use the Tracker software to create the motion graphs.

The Tracker software that can be found on https://physlets.org/tracker/ Thank you to the developers for making this software that is free for everyone to use!
