Have a little read: ... An Experiment Using a Pendulum to Find the Acceleration due to Gravity. Aim: The aim of my experiment is to find the acceleration due to gravity otherwise known as 'g'. To do this I could do an experiment that involves a pendulum and the formula which can be put into the equation of a straight line y=mx+c Another experiment I could undertake uses a trolley and ramp but a different formula involving mass, which again is put into the equation of a straight line. I am going to pursue the pendulum idea, as it was the original experiment used by Sir Isaac Newton who's value for the acceleration due to gravity still stands today (even with all our modern technology). The trolley and ramp idea seems insufficient as the trolley isn't really in free fall and the friction from the ramp would surely affect my results. I
