Honors and Mathematical Freefall labs

For your free fall labs , you should plot the cumulative distance vs time, the velocity vs time, and the acceleration vs time. You should discuss the shape of your curves and whether or not they met your expectations.

Find the acceleration from your data and from your velocity graph (think about how you find acceleration from the velocity graph). Does think acceleration match your expectations? Is it about g?

This is an informal or minilab so follow the guidance in your course guide.
