1. Pendulu m Lab What variable(s) affects the swing rate of a pendulum?

2. 3 variables Length of pendulum Mass of pendulum Drop Height (amplitude) of pendulum

3. Choosing a Variable and a Group I will number you 1-3. You will need to pair up with 2 other students who have the same number as you. If you are a number 1 you will test length of string If you are a number 2 you will test the mass of a pendulum If you are a number 3 you will test the drop height (amplitude) of a pendulum

4. Building the Pendulum Follow along while I build a pendulum. Make sure yours is set up exactly like mine. Make sure you are only testing the one variable assigned to your group.

5. Creating a data table

6. Graphing and Presenting Data/Results Once you complete your data collection share your information with another group testing the same variable as you. You will need to complete a graph (of your choice) including your set of data and the other groups data. As a group you will present your findings to the class.
