The day started out like every day in Mr. Man's phys class, with a daily question. The question's topic was force. 2 carts were displayed on the smart board and students were asked to find the work done on each cart. The class was then instructed to read page 8, which has the information and instructions for the lab that will be performed later in the period. I spoke up during class and was Mr. Man. made me look like a fool. After reading over the lab sheet Mr. Manning discussed it and told us what to do and what not to do to insure that the data we collect will be good. The lab started. Oh yeah, the point of the lab was to figure out the amount of work done on a box being pulled up at different angles. The angles of the ramps ranged from 15 degrees to 90 degrees. (90 being my favorite number) With the experiment part of the lab done my group found that C when the ramp was positioned at 40 degrees need the most work done to raise the cart.
