This is a video explaining data collection for the Free Fall Lab used at Finger Lakes Community College (www.flcc.edu). A 200 g mass was dropped while attached to a strip of paper. The paper ran through a Pasco ticker tape timer that made dots on the paper every one fortieth (1/40) of a second. Some of the data collection parameters are explained in the video.
The data sets are available for students enrolled in PHY118 and PHY151.
FLCC offers in-person and online physics classes each semester.
