The set up: We want to test the relationship of force and average velocity

If i use a ramp, a pulley, weights to create the pulling force. Can i use the formula f=ma for average velocity then?

No. The issue I am facing is the task i have isn't giving much detail making the task confusing. Plan an investigation to test how the size of the pulling force affects the average velocity of the trolley of the toy car

Oh not at all. Its just i am carrying this experiment for my students aged 14. And their syllabus mentions only the formula F=ma which i gave you but is asking for average velocity in the question. So I'm saying just to make it simpler for them, can i just take average velocity as the same as...

Got it :) But would there be any issue if i used f=ma for average velocity as the question states? As i am preparing this for a younger class.

There will not be any friction. Also are you suggesting for this experiment they want us to use the formula f=ma. So they are saying take average velocity as acceleration? Equation for constant velocity is v = u + at i think. But which formula do you think they want us to use? f=ma or not? As...

Homework Statement Investigate the effect of the pulling force on average velocity. You will be given a trolley and a ramp and slotted masses to create pulling force. Homework Equations F=ma Average velocity = d/t The Attempt at a SolutionMy hypothesis is that as we increase the pulling...
