Calculations: Constant Mass, Increasing Net Force Calculate the theoretical acceleration when mass is constant and net force is changed. The acceleration is the ratio of the net force divided by the total mass. For runs \( \# 1, \# 2 \), and \( \# 3 \), the total mass of the system (mass of cart plus mass \( \quad a=\frac{m_{H} g}{m_{C}+m_{H}} \) of hanger) is constant and the net force (mass of hanger \( x \) 9.8) increases. Assuming no friction, the net force is the weight of the hanger (mass \( \times 9.8 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{kg} \) ). Total mass of cart and two \( 20-\mathrm{g} \) masses \( (\mathrm{mC}) \) : Total mass of system \( (\mathrm{mC}+\mathrm{mH}) \) where \( \mathrm{mH} \) is the mass of the hanger for Run #1: Mass of the Empty Cart =
