A few days ago I carried out an experiment about Simple harmonic motion. In the attachment I added the scheme of the laboratory.
I have collected the following data : time(s), displacement(m), velocity(ms-1)
I can obviously plot the graph of x(t). However, the next task is to draw a graph of a(t).
As far as I know, I can calculate the acceleration by using first derivative of velocity. Since I have about 300results I am definitely not going to do it manually :D
Is there any program that I can use to automatically plot the acceleration vs time graph ?
In class we used 'coachlab II', but that little sucker deleted all the graphs when the device was disconnected and right now I have no access to that software.
Cheers
