Marbles in Cylinder Lab
You received a graduated cylinder with three identical marbles and an unknown amount of wateralready in it. You placed extra identical marbles in the cylinder and obtained the data below. Usethe datato graph abest-fit line showing the relationship between the water level and the numberof marbles. The y-intercept shouldbevisibleonthegraph. Find the slope of the line. Remember thatyouneed to use the bestfitline – notthedatapoints – to find the slope. Label your axes and includeunits.
From the graph, determine a mathematical formula for the water level for any number of marbles.Lastly, give an explanation of your formula in words. Make sure to give an explanation of theslope and y-intercept of your formula.

Explanation of the formula in words: (Include the meaning of the slope and y-intercept.)
PendulumLab
You are doing an experiment to find out how the length of a pendulum affects its period. (Period isthe time it takes for one backand forth swing).Youcollectthe databelow.Use Google Sheets to do the following:
• Copy the data into a Google Sheet file (oryoucanstart withtheGoogleSheet filethat is shared on Google Classroom).
• Set up a formula to calculate the average period for each length • Make ascatter plotof the datawith length onthe x-axis and period onthe y-axis • Add a trendline using a power series • Setthelabeltoshowtheequationonthegraph • Attach the Google Sheet file to the Summer Assignment post on Google Classroom.
