Thursday's lab

in which you will verify that work is the change in kinetic energy. Hopefully.

This one is a bit fussier than the others - if you are not careful taking your data, the results can be rather noisy, and you won't get good agreement. Focus on getting a couple of good curves to analyze carefully, even if it means repeating the measurements a few times until it looks decent, rather than jumping into the analysis.

Anyway: it does work, just fair warning.
