Bouncing ball

Aim:
I want to find out if there is a relationship between how high a ball is dropped from and how high it bounces up.

Hypothesis:
I predict that the higher the ball is dropped from, the higher it bounces.

Method:
The equipment that I will need is:

• Bouncy ball 
• Ruler
• Stand with boss head and clamp ( Only if you are doing by yourself) 

1. Attach the clamp to the stand.
2. Clamp the ruler onto the stand so that the zero mark is on the ground.
3. Hold the bottom of the ball on 50cm and drop.
4. Record the height of the bounce measuring the bottom of the ball.
5. Repeat the experiment twice more and record the average measurement.
6. Repeat the whole experiment using heights of 60cm, 70cm, 80cm, 90cm, 100cm

                                      
Variables:

Independent (changing) Variable = The height of the drop
Dependent (measured) Variable = The height of the bounce

Results:

Height of Drop	Height of Bounce on carpet
80cm	31cm
90cm	31cm
100cm	39cm

Height of Drop	Height of Bounce on concreate
80cm	35cm
90cm	44cm
100cm	47cm
