Physics Toolbox Accelerometer Status

PhysicsToolboxAccelerometer can be used in the classroom to hep students quantify activities with Newton's 2nd Law by taking a mobile device with PhysicsToolboxAccelerometer on field trips to amusement park rides, roller coasters, or even in elevators for standard "elevator problems".  PhysicsToolboxAccelerometer can be especially useful for monitoring changes in acceleration in vehicles or airplanes, and to monitor vibrations of any sort.  G-Force data can be recorded and exported as a . csv attachment using a comma as a delimiter.  This accelerometer sensor app measures and displays a graph of G-Force vs.  Time (s) in x, y, and/or z dimensions, as well as total magnitude.  Time (s) and Acceleration (m/s/s) vs.  Because G-Force is the ratio of normal force / weight of the object in question, students can the known mass of the object in question to quantitatively draw force diagrams throughout the object's motion.
