Newton’s Second Law (Predicting Accelerations) Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to study the Newton’s second law and the behavior of objects for which all forces are not balanced. In this experiment‚ a small mass m will be connected to the dynamics cart by a string. The string will pass over a pulley at the table’s edge so that as the mass falls the cart will be accelerated over the table’s force. The cart will be released from rest and allowed to accelerate over a distance. Using a
