Mass Lab Stations Blog

In lab station one, there were only 4 different variations of results that were found on our data. These four were -.1, 0, .1, and .2. Because these results are so close, we believe that the scale could have easily been off by .1 or .2 occasionally and that is the reason for any variation. The only thing that we did was stretch out the wool, which is no different than moving the wool apart. We all decided that the particles of the wool were just more spread out, but stayed the same. We claim that the measurements should have all been 0, and that the slight variation was because the scale was too inconsistent for our results. We think that the scales were not very inaccurate, but with such small amounts, it makes a difference. We think this because most people had 0, and only some had variations of .1 or .2.
