Front

A student observes an orange falling from a tree. The student designs an experiment to study whether the height of an object affects the length of time it takes for it to hit the ground. The student makes a hypothesis that the length of time it takes an object to hit the ground depends on its height. Some of the steps in the student’s experiment are described below. Which of these most likely completes Step 3 in the student’s experiment? Options: Use a measuring tape to measure the distance the golf ball travels from the ladder for each trial, Use a stopwatch to measure the time it takes the golf ball to stop moving from the release for each trial, Use a measuring tape to measure the distance the golf ball travels from the release to the ground for each trial, Use a stopwatch to measure the time it takes the golf ball to travel from the release to the ground for each trial.

Back

Use a stopwatch to measure the time it takes the golf ball to travel from the release to the ground for each trial.
