This week we have been working on acceleration a lot. We have done the ball toss lab and defined several graphs and what they mean. The picture I took is from a pool table. The cue ball was shot and broke up the balls in the middle. The cue ball accelerated toward the rest of the balls and came to a stop by accelerating backward. The cue ball then transferred the force to the other balls causing them to accelerate in different directions. The other balls then either fell in a pocket or hit the rails causing them to slow down and then stop. This happened because the balls accelerated in the opposite directions causing it to slow down or stop.
