Given the hypothesis "The faster a ball is launched, the higher it will go", what is the Independent Variable

• The speed of the ball

• The height of the ball

• How long the ball is in the air

Given the hypothesis "The faster a ball is launched, the higher it will go", what is the Dependent Variable

• The speed of the ball

• The height of the ball

• The time the ball is in the air

Given the hypothesis "The faster a ball is launched, the higher it will go", what is the Correct Graph Title?

• Speed of Launch vs Height of Ball

• Height of Ball vs Speed of Launch

• Height of Ball vs Time in Air

• Time in Air vs Speed of Launch

Select the statement that would be best for your CONCLUSION regarding your HYPOTHESIS?

• The experiment proved our hypothesis wrong

• Our hypothesis was correct

• The data supported our hypothesis

• Our guess was not right

Which statement would be the best one to include in our CONCLUSION about possible ERRORS?

• We made an error when we did the lab

• Our data is inaccurate due to human error

• A potential source of error could be the ball bouncing when it hits the table

• We didn't have any errors because we are perfect
