Part I: Data Analysis Graph
Graph the horizontal distance vs time to determine the Average Horizontal Velocity of the projectile
Check your graph
- Is the title specific including the dependent variable and the independent variable?
- Are the axis labeled both with the variable and the unit?
- Are the axis labeled by values from least to greatest data points with a proper scale?
- Do the data points cover the entire graph provided?
- Does the Best Fit Line represent the expected relationship?

Write your CER here. We are not using No Red Ink (besides as bonus points). This is a major grade so I encourage you to have a peer review your work before submission
Question 3
3.
Procedure: Write the procedure for the lab using numbered steps. Be clear and concise and write in full sentences. Draw a diagram of your set up in the show your work section
Check those that are true for a marble after it is launched from a horizontal marble launcher at a 2 meter height. (neglect air resistance)
during the flight the horizontal velocity increases
during the flight the horizontal velocity decreases
during the flight the horizontal velocity stays the same.
during the flight the vertical velocity increases
during the flight the verical velocity decreases
during the flight the verical velocity stays the same
horizontal acceleration changes during the flight
horizontal acceleration does not change during the flight
horizontal acceleration is zero during the flight
vertical acceleration changes during the flight
vertical acceleration does not change during the flight
vertical acceleration is zero during the flight
Write a 3 paragraph CER Conclusion on a separate sheet of paper.
C = Claim: Statement about the results of the experiments based on the original purpose.
Must relate to your Hypothesis which relates to the Purpose.
Full hypothesis omitting the ‘if’ and ‘then’
based on appropriate data that describes the relationship between the dependent and independent variables.
Define all terms, variables, concepts, and relationships.
Do not include data or conclusions.
Explain the lab without including all details of the procedure.
E = Evidence: Evidence/ data/observations that supports the claim.
List ALL data that supports your claim. Include 3 ordered pairs that illustrate the trends the graph illustrates; Utilize your answers from the appropriate data tables and lab questions.
Include 3 ordered pair data points and appropriate data from the Data Collection and Data Analysis Sections.
Explain the trends in the data without listing reasoning or a conclusion.
R = Reasoning: Use reasoning to link your evidence to your data.
Clearly explain how or why the evidence supports the claim. justifying the link of the scientific principles of the claim to the evidence.
List at least 3 sources of error only 1 of which can be human source of error.
Utilize your answers from the appropriate post lab questions.
Proof Read!
Does this make sense to someone that has not taken this class?
Did you clearly illustrate your point?
Can your conclusion stand alone and give a clear view of the lab conclusions?
No pronouns! Be specific. Alter “it is rolling” to “The ball is rolling”
Present tense only! Science is timeless. No past or future tense. “We measured the distance” to “the distance is measured”
Do not reference the lab. Reference only the scientific principles. Alter “In the lab” to “the evaluation of.”
Shared conclusions will split the grade with all common conclusions.
