Objective
- Our purpose for this project is to experiment the relation of
Newtons first law and second law using cars along with frictionless
track to prove our theory.
CONCEPT
Newtons second law

electricity
Materials
- 2 cars
- Frictionless track
- Pliers
- Battery
Set Up track
cars
Background/Introduction
Everyone in the group agree to do about electricity and newtons
second law. At first, we are going to demonstrate with train model but
to be more clear in everyday life, we choose Tamiya car to demonstrate
as Tamiya car has many option to do with not only motor weight or
speed but also shape.

We will test by run a car in a track while the other car has more
weight and become slower. This situation can apply to newton's second
law. Heavy one will go slower. We have to build a car with their circuit
inside so this will came up with electricity topic.
Background/Introduction
Another factor is we choose to do Tamiya car because we completely
understand electricity and newtons second law topic so we came up
with something that easy to show. Car is the basic concept that we can
typically represent newtons second law and electricity concept. With
the Tamiya car, we can choose what speed and weight that we want.
Physic concept
- Electricity

- Newton's Second Law


Both cars will have same net force but one will be weight by clay which will be effect on
weight according to our hypothesis and related to Newtons Second Law
Also that in assembling car, we apply electric circuit to the motor to make the cars run
which apply in Electric theory.
Discussion of design
1.Build 2 cars
- Prepare all equipment
- Build up body structure
- assemble a chassis and
gear/ cog
- Build up circuit of the
car
- Assemble it together
and add minor detail
- decoration
- Test run the car
Discussion of design
2. Build the track for car to run
- Prepare equipment
- Cut out the part of the track
- Follow the instruction in the box
- Assemble it together
- decoration
Discussion of Design
3. Run a test on both car
- Put each car on outer track 5 times
- Record time of each car from the
start point to end point
- Collect data then analyze
DATA
Data Analysis
Car A - Pack a cray
Car B - Pack no material

Both car have the same net force

As you can see in the data, difference of mass can affect on acceleration
Conclusion

The weight of the object effect it's acceleration of the car even though that both of
them have the same net force due to newtons second law
Recommendation
This project is used to reinforce newtons second law and electricity. Therefore, further experiment can
base on newtons third law or electrostatic to enlarge the experiment area. In addition, this experiment
can be improved by adding more variable or repeat the experiment to maximize perception.
