Easy as pie.

Objective:use observations and measurements to determine the relationship between two quantities circumference diameter.

1.Measure both precisely and accurately the circumference & diameter of 10 circular objects.
2.graph the circumference and diameter of 10 circular objects according to the good rules of graphing given in class and on the block
                    Note:The most important thing in your graph is that it takes of the proper amount of  
                             space this is done by developing a proper scale.  
                             This is accomplished when all your points fit neatly on your graph and have an easy-   
                              to-read increment of either fives, tens, or two's.

  1. if each block for my y axis equals .25 cm, is that okay?

  2. I don't understand how to find the slope since they are all inconstant points

  3. Easy! Find 2 easy to read points that are on your BLOF and use those. Just like on the sample graph of voltage and current.

    1. Plug in an x value and y value from your "line" and solve for x.
      Or you can read it directly off the graph.

  5. For the intervals to be correct... do they have to pass the half way point if you fold the paper in half?
