Hypothesis.

My hypothesis is that the marble is going to go further because it’s got more density and it is smaller so it would go further cause with a ramp and also gravity determines the results as far it will travel.

ruler X3

steps/Method

we first put the rulers on the wall in a certain place so the ball would roll further we also used the chairs as a support beam ready to catch the rulers if it fell then we made a little track for it to go on.

 

conclusion

The ping pong ball went further but are theory didn’t work but If I would change something it would be a different ball like a golf ball then I would probably change our ramp design. In conclusion this experiment would of went better if we made a different design for the ramp

One thought on “Riley’s ball theory.

  1. Hi Riley, this is a nice first blog. Definitely an Ace. Your formatting could be more straightforward (look at the example blog for the order of the different sections). You have attempted to reason why your hypothesis was incorrect which is great. To move to a Pro, you will need to research why and include some more facts. Good job.
