Pendulum+lab


 * Purpose** - To find the relationship between period of a pendulum and mass or length or arc.


 * Graphs** - Turn in on Google Classroom

Mass vs. period Length vs. Period and Length vs. Period^2 Arc vs. period


 * Calculations** - How would the slope of each line be calculated. Show example from each graph. (3)


 * Questions** -

1. How does this experiment use controlled experimental method? (Name at least 2 ways)

2. What is the independent and dependent variable in each experiment?

3. Why is it important to have a large number and range of data points?


 * Conclusion** - (Handwrite **or** type/turn in on Google Classroom)

Write a one paragraph conclusion that includes purpose, claims (relationships and formulas), evidence to support/explain stated claims (include what the slope and the y-intercept mean) and error analysis.

DO NOT TALK ABOUT PROCEDURE.
