2
Volume vs. height Trendlines
3
W2: Completion: XX pts Problem...
4
Quiz S3 15 min When done, get a computer, start it up, and try to graph your data from yesterday
5
First, we will all make a graph using the sample data on Google classroom Then, you will graph your own data
11
Choose the shape that looks like your data Your R 2 should be as close to 1 as possible
13
Your graph (from the sample data) should have a: Title Axis labels (x-axis & y-axis) Trendline Equation R 2 value Save it as: LASTNAME_Raindrop lab.xlsx
14
Make 3 graphs in MS Excel Save the graphs in MS Excel Copy the graphs to a new Google doc following the Google classroom link Finished early? Work on the HW analysis questions
15
See slides after ET...
16
ET: Thinking about graphing HW: W2B
18
What would be a better rain gauge, a beaker or the Florence flask? Why?
19
Volume increases steadily and predictably Can use a straight line to predict an unknown volume
20
Proportional – two variables are directly proportional when you can multiply the value of one by a constant to obtain the value of the other Data lying a straight line passing through zero is proportional
21
Height and volume within the beaker are proportional – straight line on graph This is not true for the Florence flask
22
“Well, if the beaker is such a great rain gauge, why didn’t ALL of the data points fall on the trendline?”
23
No matter how careful chemists are, they make small errors in their measurements This is why chemists often average out several measurements to get accurate data
24
# stairs is proportional to height of stairs Distance driven at given speed is proportional to amount of time # pages in book is proportional to thickness of book
26
Bigger diameter, more rain collected
27
Volume of rain is directly proportional to height of water measured Graphs of two variables that are proportional include a straight best fit line through the origin (zero) Predictions of proportional values can be made if one value is known
28
Suppose you have a cylindrical rain gauge with 8 mL of rain that measures 2 cm in height. How could you predict the volume of rain if 10 cm of liquid was collected in the rain gauge?
