A sample is given here from the team’s concluding remarks:“From our data we can conclude that we successfully isolated the phenomenon. We did this bycalculating our theoretical acceleration and comparing it to what the sensors actually recorded.Areas of improvement would be a more rigid base, smoother running surface, a constant angulardrive and linear velocity for the car.”B.
