bigger the mass the slower the acceleration‚ as we all should have known. To calculate this we used the second law of Newton (F=ma). For the first experiment we got .233 (m/s/s) with a percent error of 76%. The relationship for the first experiment was inverse because the acceleration was decreasing every time the weight (mass) increased. In the second experiment we got 3.52 (m/s/s) with a percent error of 56.4%. For this experiment the relationship was linear because the mass was increased for each trial
