  • Submitting a file upload

Our first Physics Assignment *cue glorious trumpets and fanfare*. 

In this lab we will be establishing our graphing and math modeling conventions. If you miss a day, check in with table mates what we did for data/advice/info. 

After completing the Spaghetti Lab, please submit the following in a word document. 

  • A graph of your data, using your graphical analysis software of choice (google sheets, logger pro, graphical analysis etc)
  • A math model of your data. 
  • A sentence describing the significance of the slope and vertical intercept. 

To complete these tasks, use your best judgement and apply skills/conventions you have used in previous classes.
