Archimedes Principle Experiment – Part 2 We are going to drop bolts into the cylinder one at a :me. Lets measure Volume. 1. Iden:fy the following: Independent variable, Dependent variable, Rate of Change, and the units of each of the three. Conduct the experiment by crea:ng a simple table. Take an ini:al measurement. Then drop in 3 bolts and take a new measurement. Record your data in the table. Repeat un:l you have used up all your bolts. 2. Does the data depict a func:onal rela:onship? Jus:fy your answer. 3. What kind of correla:on does your data depict? Jus:fy your answer. 4. What is the domain and range of your data? Use the correct nota:on. 5. Create a scaQerplot of your data on graph paper. Make sure to label the x and y axis with the correct quan:ty and units. Make sure to use an appropriate scale. Create a :tle for your scaQerplot 6. Does your data depict a con:nuous rela:onship or a discrete rela:onship? Jus:fy your answer. 7. Use you scaQerplot to determine the increase in volume if 4.5 bolts were dropped in the water. Explain how you got your answer. 8. Use your scaQerplot to determine the number of bolts needed to double the ini:al volume of the water in your boQle. Decimal answers are appropriate.

Archimedes  Principle  Experiment  –  Part  2    We  are  going  to  drop  bolts  into  the  cylinder  one  at  a  :me.    Lets  measure  Volume.    1.  Iden:fy  the  following:  Independent  variable,  Dependent  variable,  

Rate  of  Change,  and  the  units  of  each  of  the  three.    Conduct  the  experiment  by  crea:ng  a  simple  table.    Take  an  ini:al  measurement.    Then  drop  in  3  bolts  and  take  a  new  measurement.    Record  your  data  in  the  table.    Repeat  un:l  you  have  used  up  all  your  bolts.    2.    Does  the  data  depict  a  func:onal  rela:onship?    Jus:fy  your  answer.  

   3.  What  kind  of  correla:on  does  your  data  depict?  Jus:fy  your  answer.    4.  What  is  the  domain  and  range  of  your  data?  Use  the  correct  nota:on.    5.  Create  a  scaQerplot  of  your  data  on  graph  paper.    Make  sure  to  label  the  x  and  y  axis  with  the  correct  quan:ty  and  units.    Make  sure  to  use  an  appropriate  scale.  Create  a  :tle  for  your  scaQerplot    6.  Does  your  data  depict  a  con:nuous  rela:onship  or  a  discrete  rela:onship?    Jus:fy  your  answer.            7.  Use  you  scaQerplot  to  determine  the  increase  in  volume  if  4.5  bolts  were  dropped  in  the  water.    Explain  how  you  got  your  answer.    8.  Use  your  scaQerplot  to  determine  the  number  of  bolts  needed  to  double  the  ini:al  volume  of  the  water  in    your  boQle.    Decimal  answers  are  appropriate.    Explain  how  you  got  your  answer.
