AS 91168: Carry out a practical physics investigation that leads to a non-linear mathematical relationship
This practical investigation is a development of the Level 1 physics practical. You are required, for a set investigation, to:
- plan an appropriate method with key variables identified and described
- use and describe the effects of accuracy improving techniques
- interpret a non-linear graph
- transform a non-linear graph into a linear graph and calculate the mathematical relationship
- make comparisons between a theoretical equation and the mathematical equation derived from your results
- discuss, in detail, the reliability and accuracy of your results including full descriptions of any difficulties encountered, their effects on results, as well as justification for chosen accuracy improving techniques.
Assessment: this will be in the format of a written lab report using Google Docs (or other Google platform). NOTE submissions in Word, PDF or other formats will not be accepted.
