Data Logger (Acceleration and Velocity) : 2. Objectives

The document discusses using a data logger to measure acceleration and velocity. Specifically, it aims to (1) provide accurate data on environmental conditions, and (2) measure parameters like acceleration as an alternative way to collect data. An experiment is described where a motion sensor is used to investigate the velocity and acceleration of an object down an inclined plane at different angles. The results show that acceleration increases with steeper angles as the parallel force component increases. Data loggers are beneficial as they allow students to systematically perform experiments and obtain authentic results.
