Sc1 Investigation: How Easily A Material Stretches under Pressure

Apparatus:

Diagram:

 The diagram shows an example of a rubber band being stretched some weights. The way you set up this apparatus is you attach the rubber band and the ruler to the stand  and put the weights on the end of the material and then you just read the measurements.

Help:

 In this investigation I had 2 partners Fielde Fargason and Richard Hart.

Result Tables:

In this investigation ive done a lot of things to make the investigation is fair, safe

and accurate. To make this investigation  I wore goggles when stretching the

rubber bands just in case they flew in my eye. The way I made this experiment fair

is I used the same amount of force on each rubber band/ plastic bag/ spring.  The

accuracy in this investigation is due to testing the results twice because we did this

we need to add a average column and a average column means a extension column.

Key: Force(N)= how much newton’s are applied to the rubber band.

         1 +2 = These are the number of times I tested the rubber band/plastic bag/ spring.

Join now!

         Average = The numbers in columns named 1 +2 are added together then divide the answer by 2.

         Extension = The numbers in the average column take away from the top number in the Average                                                                    column.

       

The Tables are on the next page!

 Material: Rubber Band Size: 6mm wide
