Experiment #1 Objective: We were to see if the cart when it was at rest would remain at rest unitl we moved it.Hypothesis: I belevie that the cart will move backwards.Procedures: 1. Place the cart on the wood board. 2. Pull the borad from under the cart about four or five times.3. Record your data.Data: Observation 1 The cart moved up and then backwards.Observation 2 The cart stayed in the same position and dropped off the board. Observation 3 The cart dropped and moved forward a little bit.Observation 4 The cart moved a little side ways. Materials: Wood Board, plastic cart and table.Conclusions: The cart moved a little bit and dropped to the table when the borad was pulled from underneath. My hoypothesis was correct the cart did now back, but only when the borad was moed that the cart was able to move. Yes it follows the first law. The cart did not move when it was not touched. Until it was moved by an outside force which was the borad.
