USING PHOTOGATES TO TIME CARS 9/16/11Top half of page: Draw/color a labeled picture of how to
set it up.– Label: ramp, car, photogate A,B, draw red and blue
wires.
• Answer in a paragraph- bottom half of page.
How should the photogates be set up for timing cars:
1. Should the timer be on stopwatch or interval?2. Should light A, B or both be on?3. Which photogate should be nearest to the top of
the ramp, A or B?Describe what happens to the timer when a
car rolls – down ramp THROUGH 1st PHOTOGATE
(PG), – between the 2 PG’s and – THROUGH THE 2nd PG.

Conclusion: Answer the problem. List some evidence for your conclusion. Does data support hypothesis? Why or why not?
Analysis
1. Explain why the CAR MASS was the experimental variable in this experiment, but RAMP STEEPNESS was the experimental variable in the previous experiment.
2. How and why were variables controlled (to make it a fair test?) Did the CONTROLLED VARIABLES in this experiment affect the TIME down the ramp? Why or why not?
3. Some sort of concluding sentence ( “I wonder if…”., or “ It was surprising that…”, or I learned that…”
A good graph has:
•Descriptive Title
•Axes labelled
•Line drawn/ Bars colored

• Lab • Problem
• Experimental variable •Conclusion
• Controlled variables • Why controlled
•Magic diver(P. 8-9)
•Why does the divergo up or down?
•The use of the magnet totry to move it.
•The magnet has no effect
•No hand squeezingpressure on the bottle.
•So it won’t affect results:diver going up or down
