Proportionality and Newton’s Second Law of Motion Abstract How does increasing the mass of an object affect its acceleration? Is acceleration dependent of the mass of an object? How do they relate? Defining and testing Newton’s second law of motion familiarizes us with this relationship. In this experiment, we use the mass of an object as an independent variable to come to a conclusion about force and acceleration. By increasing the mass of an object at an incline, one can observe the change in…

A persons mind is unique. Every person has his or her own way of thinking and learning. Not to mention, people come from different origins, which leads to some people having a higher vocabulary. Why is all this important in physics? In the article, “Talking to Learn Physics and Learning to Talk Physics” it states, “the development of physics discourse and conceptual understanding are different processes that depend upon one another for successful physics learning (Harlow, Otero 1).” This article…
