Question 16

A student carries out an experiment to investigate the relationship between force and acceleration for a trolley on a track.

Write down the equation that links acceleration ( $a$ ), mass ( $m$ ), and resultant force ( $F$ ).

[1]

In one test, the resultant force on the trolley is $N0.485\text{ N}$ and the total mass of the trolley is $kg0.80\text{ kg}$ . Calculate the acceleration of the trolley. Give your answer to 2 significant figures.

[2]

Describe how the student could improve their investigation to reduce the effect of random errors.
