In conclusion, based on my multiple trials and all three different methods of gathering data, the buggy moves at a constant velocity and the position time graph is linear. A constant velocity of the buggy means that it is moving the same amount of meters every second. All of my graphs back this up, and they are all linear.

The two main sources of error from the lab were both in the stopwatch trials. In the stopwatch trials it is hard to start the cart and the timer at the same time which can lead to uncertainty. Similarly, in the stopwatch trials its hard to know exactly when to stop it and where the buggy was at that point which leads to uncertainty.
