Normal Yet Different Day

    In physics a day ago, Mr. B gave us some labs to do in our groups that were tied to speed, direction, velocity, and (something new) acceleration. Mr. B said that this was a lab that our class would refer back to again and again. For the lab, we used the bumblebee carts and ramps. Our group would have to model questions given to us in a packet. We'd make predictions on the time vs. position graph, velocity graph, and acceleration graph. Next, we would see the information that was recorded by the motion censor. Half of the time our predictions were right and half of the time our predictions were wrong. Most of the time the mistakes we made were fixed, but a good portion of the mistakes I did not know why they were mistakes. I'll have to ask Mr.B for help.
