Uniform linear motion with Cobra4

Principle

The pupils should develop the notion of linear uniform motion experimentally, by deriving the speed of the powered car from the measurement of the distance and time. The experiment should be carried out with different distances and car speeds.

From the measurement values obtained the pupils should recognize that the speed within the distances measured in these experiments is constant and that therefore the term "uniform" applies to them.

Benefits

• Entrance to the world of datalogging by using the Cobra4 Mobile-Link
• The use of the compact Cobra4 Mobile-Link is space-saving, also no socket is needed
• Very modern student experiments which fully cover the curriculum subject "Motion"
