This is a picture of our lab that involves the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. For this lab, we have to see how a carts mass affects the force of its movement and vice versa. This lab will not only show how force, mass, and acceleration are related, but how these forces can be applied into real life. For example, instead of measuring how much force of a 100g cart can create, we can measure how much force a bullet train makes. With using these same principles and applying them to real life situations, we can find out the "hows" and "whys" about our planet.

This is a picture of an arrow. This arrow is a vector. A vector is a quantity of magnitude and direction. I chose an arrow to represent a vector because it's the most basic form of a vector. There are many vectors that surround us daily. Cars, planes, bikes are few examples of the vectors on earth. Vectors are important because they relate to acceleration and velocity. Anything that moves has acceleration and velocity. In class we have been studying how certain vectors can have the same length, but different direction. Also, we have been studying how three vectors can create a triangle.
