Barbie Bungee Jumping, Revisited

Now that students have experienced the entire activity and have had time to reflect on the errors that might have caused their Barbie to not perform to expectations, we spent time in class reconstructing the experiment to eliminate as many human errors as possible. Students worked in groups to collect data, which will be used in tonight's homework.

Tonight's Homework: Create a well-labeled data table. Graph your data and draw the line of best fit. Determine the equation of this line. Write a procedure that identifies how your group conducted and error-less experiment. Then determine the number of rubber bands required to drop the Barbie 300, 400, and 500 cm. Be sure to show your work.
