AP Physics 1 Lab Manual Overview
Authored by physics educators, the Advanced Physics 1 Lab Manual, includes fifteen guided inquiry labs that cover AP Physics 1 topics such as kinematics and dynamics, circular motion and gravitation, energy and momentum, torque, and rotational motion.
Experiment Library
Perform the following experiments and more with the Mass and Hanger Set.
Visit PASCO's Experiment Library to view more activities.
Rotational Dynamics
In this lab, students use rotary motion sensors to determine the mathematical relationship between torque, rotational inertia, and angular acceleration of a rotating object.
Forces and Motion
In this lab, students explore the relationship between force, mass, and motion using a Smart Cart on an aluminum dynamics track. The objective is to investigate how changes in cart mass and hanging mass impact the velocity and...
Work and Kinetic Energy
Students use a Smart Cart and dynamics system to investigate the relationship between the change in kinetic energy of an object experiencing a non-zero net force and the work done by that net force on the object, and then use...
Periodic Motion: Mass And Spring
In this lab, students will use a motion sensor to determine the physical properties that affect the period of oscillation of a hanging mass and spring system. Then, students will use their data to support a mathematical model...
Newton's First Law
In this lab, students will use motion sensors to determine how force influences the motion of an object. Students will observe that an object’s motion is unchanged in the absence of an external force.
Newton's Second Law
Students use a Smart Cart to determine the relationship between a system’s mass, acceleration, and the net force being applied to the system.
