Determine both sides of Eq. 5.2: mh and mc sinq a) for down motion b) for up motion: 2. Determine uncertainty with hi-lo of both sides of Eq. 5.2: dmh and d(mc sinq) a) for down motion b) for up motion: 3. Compute % difference between both sides of Eq. 5.2: a) for down motion b) for up motion: Cart with Friction: Cloth Surface4. Use Eq. 5.7 to compute coefficient of friction m: a) for down motion b) for up motion: 5. Use hi-lo method to determine uncertainty of m : a) for down motion b) for up motion: 6. Compute % difference between mdown and mup for clothCart with Friction: Wood Surface7. Use Eq. 5.7 to compute coefficient of friction m: a) for down motion b) for up motion: 8. Use hi-lo method to determine uncertainty of m : a) for down motion b) for up motion: 9. Compute % difference between mdown and mup for woodSample Calculations Show sample calculation for each step of the Cart on Wheels and the Cart with Friction. For the latter, you need show calculations only for the cloth (or wood).3CONCLUSIONError Analysis/ Discussion1. Do the calculation results from Analysis steps 1-4 support or refute a conclusion that the cart motion is frictionless? Discuss the possible reasons for deviation from frictionless 2. Comment on values of friction coefficients m observed for a) cloth b) wood3. Do results agree within uncertainty brackets?
