Ball Drop Pre-Lab CPS students want to determine the height of their bleachers, but they do not have a tape measure. Problem: How can they use gravity formulas to determine the height of the bleachers?

What needs to be turned in? Problem: How can they use gravity formulas to determine the height of the bleachers? Materials: Procedure: Data Table: Calculations: Conclusion Questions: What is the height of the bleacher? How did you relate the equation(s) to find the height? If you drop a rock off of a cliff and it took 9 seconds to hit the ground, what is the height of the cliff?

Ball Drop Lab Group Member Jobs 1 person = Ball Dropper 1 person = Timer/recorder 1 person = Ball transporters (WALK don’t run) WARNING!!!! NO ball will be thrown upwards towards the bleachers.
