VI(3)My calculated value for a1 =89.5 cm/s2 and for a2 =83.7 cm/s2. The calculated frictionforce is 1538.7 N. This value compared to the value of m2g, is quite larger. VI(4)This experiment could have had some systematic errors. One of which could have been due to the fact that the t values may be off due to the photogate. It may not have been at exactly zero before each time was taken. If this happens some values for t may actually be smaller than was
