Physics students performed the ball bounce lab! A simple demonstration was performed for them by dropping a ball and watching it bounce. Some really good observations and discussions were made throughout all of the classes. In all of the classes, we have groups trying to answer the following questions through lab experimentation:
+. What is the relationship between the drop height and the bounce height?
+. What is the relationship between the drop height and the number of bounces?
+. What is the relationship between the type of surface and the bounce height?
All of these experiments are being done, and we will discuss them in class tomorrow.
If you are curious about what was discussed in the different classes, look at this Google Doc.
