1. The wheel of the trolley must always check if it has dirt. 2.

There is a piece of paper under the metal track. 3. The cord must always on the combi-spoked wheel. 4. Trolley move not because of hanging mass but because of inertia. 5. The trolley must not go back to the combi-light barriers; it must carry to place it again to start. 6. The wheel of the trolley must always check if place on the metal track correctly.

INTERPRETATION: 1. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the wheels. The wheels must always be free to turn. Avoid allowing dirt, grit, or any contamination into the wheels which would interfere with their rotation. http://s7d9.scene7.com/is/content/minesafetyappliances/BeamGlide%20Trolley%20Instruction% 20Manual%20-%20EN The wheels must rotate freely to obtain uniform motion and velocity. There must be no force or interruption that the object will try to resist. If it happens, the object will not be having constant motion.

2. To achieve constant velocity between two light barriers, compensate the friction by inclining the track slightly. (Laboratory Manual in Physics Part 1) With our experiment, the piece of paper is the thing used to incline the track. It makes the movement of the trolley frictionless. It helps to avoid opposing forces thats why the trolley moves smoothly without any interruptions. 3. The combi-spoked wheel is used as a guide pulley with a groove for the cord. The cord must be inside the inner rim. During data logging with Sensor CASSY and the timer box, the inner rim of the combi-spoked wheel is scanned by a light barrier, and the motion is measured. http://www.ld-didactic.de/ga/3/337/337462/337462e.pdf It just explains that, always make sure that the cord is inside the inner rim for accurate reading of data. By this, with the help of sensory CASSY and timer box, motion is being read. 4. If a body is moving at constant velocity, it will remain moving at constant velocity.

An object in uniform motion will remain in motion so long as there is no force opposing it. An object at rest will remain at rest so long as there is no force acting upon it. http://people.virginia.edu/~stt/6310/Fall2012/Lecture%206.Forces.pdf In the experiment, the trolley move not because of the pull of the hanging mass but because it tends to move due to inertia that is trying to maintain its movement. It says that an object's motion will remain the same unless an outside force changes it. A body will preserve its velocity and direction so long as no force in its motion's direction acts on it.

5. When the trolley is slid back to the zero position, the light barrier 1 is interrupted and the time measurement is started. In order to stop it, the light barrier 2 has to be interrupted as well. However, it is simpler to the take the trolley off the rail and to put it back before the light barrier http://grundpraktikum.physik.uni-saarland.de/scripts/CASSY_Lab_2_Manual_english.pdf In order for the motion to be not interrupted, its better to take the trolley of the trail and put it back. The interrupter flag must not be in contact after the trolley passed from it.
