Teacher: Try to use proper spelling... Stick to the topic. Converse. You can ask each other questions and me questions. Teacher: How did velocity affect the distance that the balloon went? (YES, AN INCREASE IN VELOCITY DID INCREASE THE DISTANCE, NOTE THAT THIS WAS DO TO THE INCREASE IN VELOCITY IN THE HORIZONTAL POSITION AND THAT EVERY THROW HAD BOTH A VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL COMPONENT) David: the more the velocity increases, the farther the ballon travels emily: The higher the velocity, the farther the water balloon traveled. Nathan: The Harder you through the baloon the farther it travels Ian: The higher the velocity was, the further the balloon flew. The lower it was, the balloon flew less. Caroline: When the velocity number was lower the distance was shorter Taz: the larger the velocity the farther it goes Andy: When the velocity was increased the distance was greater. Nathan: i spell throw wrong Alexander: When velocity rasies the ballon goes farther Teacher: So what did the angle have to do with the distance? (THIS IS WHAT WE WILL FIND OUT IN OUR EXPERIMENT. WHAT STUDENTS HAVE CHATTED ABOUT BELOW IS BOTH TRUE AND FALSE.) Andy: When the velocity was decreased the balloon didn't go as far Imraan: velocity was the speed of how the balloon went Clayton: it made the baloon go higher Andy: I could have hit that guy Nathan: how far it went Taz: the angle came closer when it was smaller David: The smaller the angle, the farther distance. annaclaire: If you throw the balloon straight up, it will come straight down. Grant the bigger the angle the shorter the throw Ian: Went the angle was higher, the balloon flew shorter. Elizabeth: When the angle was increased the distance thrown was lower. Rabiya: if the angle was high then the ballon would be closer to the person throwing it Caroline: When the angle is lower the ballon goes farther jennifer: The velocity affected the distance because the faster the speed the farther it travels and when the speed is lower it doesn't go far. Alyssa: The higher the angle, the balloon came closer Teacher: So what happens re: the gravity? How is weight affected by gravity? (GRAVITY INCREASES THE WEIGHT OF THE OBJECT SO IF ALL CONDITIONS ARE THE SAME, IN TO DIFFERENT FORCES OF GRAVITY, THE ONE WITH THE LEST AMOUNT OF GRAVITY WILL ALLOW THE OBJECT TO GO THE FARTHEST.) Nathan: the higher the gravity is the less it will travel due to the falling rate Grant: the higher the gravity the shorter throw David: The more gravity, the hardeer is it to throw the ballon farther. Ian: The lowerer the gravity, the more distance the balloon went. annaclaire: he less gravity there is, the higher the balloon will be thrown. Andy: The gravity affected how far the balloon goes. Imraan: the gravity was less it went really far and when it was more wieght of gravity it didnt go as far Andy: If the gravity is greater the balloon will increase in weight and won't go as far. Elizabeth: If the gravity is high the balloon is heavier and doesent go as far. emily: The more gravity, the more the balloon was pulled down, so it was harder to get a far throw Caroline: As the gravity increases the ballon came closer to the building Alexander: When the gravity increase's the range is shorter when gravity is decreased the range is increased. Julia: as gravity increased, the balloon traveled less Teacher: Finally, imagine yourself throwing anything.... How could wind affect the motion of the object? (YES, WIND OR AIR RESISTANCE DRAMATICALLY AFFECTS THE RESULT OF THE EXPERIMENT. IN A PERFECT WORLD WE COULD GET RID OF THE AIR SO THAT IT DID NOT AFFECT OUR EXPERIMENT!) Alyssa: As the gravity was increased,the balloon got heavier, and couldn't travel as far Clayton: It blows it forward with positive numbers and it goes much further Nathan: if i was throwing somthing forward and the wind was blowing towards me and to the right of me i would hit clayton annaclaire: the gravity could affect the motion of the wind. Julia: if it was a lightweight object the wind would carry it and it would travel farther Rabiya: If the wind was
