Barbies (and Kens) Take the Plunge!

Today, we spent time testing the predictions of the bungee jumping research groups. To my surprise, all groups met the challenge of providing their dolls with a safe ride. Some groups had more thrilling rides than others, but all in all, students did a good job determining the number of rubber bands needed to provide thrilling rides.

Tonight's Homework: Complete the analysis of your doll's bungee jump. Discuss successes, challenges and sources of errors in your determination of the number of rubber bands needed to provide your doll with a safe AND thrilling ride. No late credit will be granted.
