Today in physics, our class conducted a lab, but it wasn't just a lab... it was a FUN lab. We had a chance to play with motion detectors. While opening the program on a laptop Mr.Chung provided, I had the notion that this lab would be a very tedious one, however i was very much mistaken. Following the instructions, we opened up files with pre made charts and our objective was to match the graphs. By moving farther/closer and faster/slower from the motion detector, we were able to change the outcome of the graphs. To the classes surprise, this was a very daunting task.
We learned how to read distance/time graphs, but the more important lesson learnt in this lab was how to read velocity/time graphs.
I enjoy this lab very much and i look forward to more hands on experiments similar to this one!
Knowing Mr.Chung... he will not fail to come up with an even better lab.
