Sliding Beaker Investigation Plan In this investigation I will be finding out what force will push a beaker along a flat surface the best. The factors which could affect my investigation are: * The surface that the beaker is on - if the surface is rough it could slow the beaker down, whereas if the surface is smooth it could be easier for the beaker to slide along. * The mass of the beaker - the bigger the mass, the further and faster the beaker will travel. * The force used to push the beaker - the bigger the force used to push the beaker, the further and faster the beaker will travel. For this investigation I will be changing the force used to push the beaker because I feel that this would be easier to measure. The apparatus I will be using is: * A Newton meter * Elastic band * Table * Plastic beaker * 100gm weight * Metre stick * Stool Method 1. Place...
