Aweaver+Air+Resistance+Lab

1. I think the two coffee filters would fall faster because the weight is greater and air resistance would have less of an effect. 2. I think the relationship between the number of filters and terminal velocity would be linear.
 * Prelab Questions**:

1. Set up motion detector on ceiling 2. Drop coffee filter .5m from the detector and collect data 3. Check for smooth graph which is a good representation of the fall 4. Use linear fit on the constant part of the graph to find the slope and record it 5. Repeat for 2-5 coffee filters
 * Procedure: **



1. See graphs above 2. (Terminal Velocity)² is more consistent with the data collected and is closer to a straight line that goes through the origin. 3. (cv)² fits the collected data better because it again is closer to a straight line that goes through the origin. 4. The fall time decreases as the weight/ number of coffee filters increases.This is because a greater mass, results in a faster velocity overall, thus shortening the fall time.
