IGCSE Prescribed Practical: Exploring the Relationship between Force and Acceleration in Physics

In this IGCSE Prescribed Practical, we investigate the relationship between force and acceleration using a trolley on an inclined plane. Through this engaging physics experiment, you will learn how to apply Newton's Second Law of Motion and the kinematic equation to calculate the acceleration and force acting on the trolley. Understanding the relationship between force and acceleration is essential in physics and has numerous real-world applications in engineering and everyday life. Follow our comprehensive guide to perform the experiment and deepen your understanding of these fundamental physics concepts.
