Re: Help!!An interesting acceleration graph




Dewey,

did you really mean to say,

The 'scaffolding' experiences 'wind up' at the catch so
there is quite a vibration in the force graph at the end, but not in the
acceleration graph.

I may have missed something and therefore be off-base with this comment,
since I haven't directly dealt with this apparatus, but if this a graph of
force (net force?) and a graph of its acceleration, the two should be the
same (proportional to each other, actually) and vibrations problems for the
two the same. Did you really mean a velocity graph compared to an
acceleration graph??
