4. In this activity, what NUMBERS & UNITS did you use <strong>to</strong> calculate speed?5. Create a one labeled and colored diagram of your ramp set-up. Use 2-headed ( ) arrows <strong>to</strong>show: height of ramp and distance traveled across floor.6. Create 2 graphs: a. Graph the height (x-axis) vs. the average time <strong>to</strong> travel (y-axis)…..and b. Graph the height (x-axis) vs. the calculated speed (y-axis)USING the Requirements for Data Tables and Graphs handout. These graphs may be onthe same piece of graph paper (front and back). So for these 2 graphs:• Be sure <strong>to</strong> USE a ruler for both axis lines.• Be sure <strong>to</strong> number both axis lines evenly.• Be sure <strong>to</strong> add labels and units of measurement <strong>to</strong> both axis lines.• Be sure <strong>to</strong> graph dots correctly and connect the dots.• Be sure <strong>to</strong> add a title that includes both axis line labels.7. What is the relationship between height of the ramp and time the ball takes <strong>to</strong> travel 1.5 meters?(Begin your answer this way: “As the height of the ramp increases, the time of ..... )8. What data do you have <strong>to</strong> support your answer <strong>to</strong> #7?9. What is the relationship between the height of the ramp and the speed at which the ball travels 1.5 macross the floor? (Begin your answer: “As the height of the ramp increases, the speed of ... )10. What data do you have <strong>to</strong> support your answer <strong>to</strong> #9?11. What is your control for this experiment?(HINT: You DON’T have a zero value for your independent variable, so you’ll need <strong>to</strong> pick one of theIVs…. So pick your lowest ramp height, because you are comparing all the other higher ramp heights <strong>to</strong>this lowest one <strong>to</strong> know how increasing the ramp height affects the time and speed of the ball <strong>to</strong> travel.)12. List AT LEAST 5 of the MOST IMPORTANTS constants you and your partner used or SHOULDHAVE used for this experiment.13. Please assess the performance of your partner by copying the sentence below in your notebook andon your notebook paper circle the appropriate number.My partner was 1 2 3 4 5 during this activity.(1 is uncooperative and unhelpful; 5 is extremely cooperative and extremely helpful)REMEMBER, please DO NOT write on this handout. Thank you.
