| Part 1 - Inclined Ramp |
| Video links are included at the right which should enable you to take the data necessary for the lab writeup. Watch | | | Inclined Ramp Baseline Run |
| the videos, collect your data, and write your report based on the lab handout and lab guidelines. Logger Pro files are | | | https://tacomacc.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=6ebbf6cb-589a-445a-9256-ab840158aa32 |

| Part 2 - Measuring Reaction Times |
| You will need someone to help you (family member, roommate, etc.) to help you collect data for this portion of the |
| lab. A ruler and a partner are all that is necessary. Have the partner hold the ruler vertically and hold your hand so |
| that the top of your hand is level with the bottom of the ruler. Have the partner drop the ruler at a random time (so |
| that you don't know when it will be dropped). When the ruler is dropped, catch the ruler and record the distance that |
| it fell (using the scale and reading off where the top of your hand is on the scale). Measuring in cm is the best. Combine |
| your data with your lab partners to create a table. Individual members do not need to be identified by name in your |
| table unless you want to (Member 1, member 2, ….). |
| Part 3 - Measuring Gravity with a Pendulum | | | Measuring Gravity with a Simple Pendulum |
| Video link at right will allow you to measure the length of the pendulum. The pendulum mass is 100.0 g. Logger Pro | | | https://tacomacc.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=a3adab84-a61b-4ab9-873f-ab95017988ff |
