The experimental data will be the measurements of accelerations a of the total
mass for few values of M2. You will plot the product (M1 + M2) · a (y-axis)
against M2 (x-axis) to obtain a straight line. The standard straight line form is y =
b + m·x where b and m are the intercept and slope of the line. Explain how the
free fall acceleration g and friction force f can be obtained from the slope and the
intercept of the experiment graph.
