Tennis Ball Drop

Tennis Ball interrogative Goal Purpose When received this lab we had to come up with an examine that would have to involve examen two tennis gawks but adept of the tennis crackpot had to be altered in one way. The way we tested the tennis ball was by drop them from a certain height and eyesight how high they bounce back up. We then would make a graph and then visit the kindred between the data.Once finding the relationship we can then linearity the data. This was initial practice for our next ELSE. Variables Our autarkical variable for this experiment was the height we had dropped tooth of the tennis balls from. The dependent variable was the tennis balls. One of them we left full and the other one was soaked In water before each drop. Procedure To setup the experiment we had to use three measurement sticks and two standard tennis balls.We took all three of the meter sticks reorient them vertically up against the wall. Taping them into place we were then able to use th em to measure the height of the dropping point. Using our eye sight we had to determine how far up the ball bounced up on the meter stick. We then proceeded to find three appropriate heights to drop then tennis ball at. displace it three times at each height and then averaging the data. On the soaked tennis ball we would soak the ball for two seconds before each drop.We also measured the free weight of each ball before dropping them. After doing this 3 times each and receiving our averages we were able to create our data and see the relationship between the two. Data The ball that wasnt soaked weighed and average of 5. 4 grams. The soaked ball averaged the weight of 5. 9 grams.
