Hopping Mad Dimensional Analysis - Lab - Frank Kovscek | Library

Choose a group member to perform each of the following tasks. Everyone should help and perform the calculations in their own Formative. They are set up for you, just plug in the conversion factors including the one you figure out. 

1

Using a meter stick measure your standing hop in cm. (Note: __________ cm = 1 hop)

1

Using a meter stick measure your standing hop in cm. (Note: __________ cm = 1 hop)

1

Using a meter stick measure your standing hop in cm. (Note: __________ cm = 1 hop)

1

Now convert to determine how many vertical hop would it take for you to “hop” 1 kilometer.
Start with 1km, then convert to your hops . . .
(Note: 1000 m = 1 km; 100 cm = 1 m; __________ cm = 1 average hop )

1

Measure, in seconds, how long it takes you to walk 10 meters. (10 "blocks in the Hall)
(Note: 10 m = _____ s)

1

Average your hops. (Note: __________ cm = 1 average hop)

1

How many hours would it take you to walk 68.8 miles.
(Note: 1000 m = 1 km; 1 miles = 1.609 kilometers; 60 second = 1 min; 60 min = 1 hour)

1

Find the mass, in grams, of your tootsie roll.

1

Record the time, in seconds, it takes to chew one tootsie roll until it is gone.

1

Record the grams chewed per second --> mass diveded by time ( ____ g/s)
