What is Acceleration Calculation Worksheet about?

The document describes an experiment to measure the acceleration of a car. A thin wooden splint passes through a photo gate as the car travels a distance x. The time Δt for the splint to pass through is measured. Velocity v is calculated as Δx/Δt. Acceleration a is then calculated using the formula a=(v^2)/(2x). Five trials are recorded with different distances x and times Δt. The acceleration is calculated for each trial and the average acceleration is reported to be 114.74 m/s^2. However, the student ques
