PASCO
 


    1. Be certain that the students have the motion sensor set on the near (cart) setting. In addition, the motion sensor should be aimed directly at the cardboard on the cart.

    2. PAScars are pictured, but any low friction cart will do. You may have to find a creative way to mount the cardboard on some carts.

    3. Encourage students to practice the pushing of the carts several times before each data collection run.

    4. Remind students that the data collection will automatically stop, so they do not have to click the stop button.

    5. To download the Relative Motion DataStudio file with sample data for this experiment, click on a Windows (Zip file) or Macintosh (Stuffit file).
