The way children are fooled with the school ticker tape
experiment.

To cut a long story short, the force on the trolley
is measured when the trolley is static, not during
the drop of the weight.

I can give a verbose description of said apparatus, but
this would be needing diagrams to improve understanding,
in groups where binaries are not permitted.

Crackpot babble.

This is just one more thing you can not understand.

It's a straw man attack used to prove the case for
E=0.5mv^2 and gravity at 9.8m/s^2

It proves nothing at all, and never will.

1- there are wheels on the trolley so everything with kinetic
energy is complicated.

2- the drop is far too short to show any difference
between 9.8m/s^2 and gravity in m/s per meter of descent.

3- because there is an attachment (the trolley) the drop is
not in free fall.

The whole of robotics is being held back - don't even know if high end
robotics companies still understand what was made years ago. e.g. the
old guys have retired, and the newbies (freshouts) haven't a clue.

WHAT proves nothing at all, babbling crackpot?

Only to uneducated crackposts that don't understand physics.
