Newton's Second Law: Constant Force Applied to a Skateboarder

Newton's Second Law: Constant Force Applied to a Skateboarder

This activity is a physics lab in which students generate distance vs. time graphs for skateboarders of different masses being pulled with various values of constant force. Students develop procedures, record and graph data, and analyze the data in light of Newton's 2nd law.
