Gravity



1. An object at rest will remain at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.


2.Acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass (of the object being accelerated) the greater the amount of force needed (to accelerate the object).

Paperclip1. 80
Cardboard1.56
Short wings1. 30

3. For every action there is an equal and opposite re-action.

Science



The feet can measure the height.
  

                                         THE FEET CAN MEASURE THE HEIGHT

The bones of the feet can tell a lot about a person. What do feet reveal about  a persons height? Forensics anthropologists team up with law enforcers to help solve crimes.Bones of the feet can reveal an interesting fact about an individual. Lets combine math with forensics to see how

   

NameFoot sizeHeight
Daniel24 cm160
Brielle20 cm139
Reige24 cm156
Greg22 cm146


.
1. Aim: Based on someones feet size we can measure their height.
2. Hypothesis: Know a rough estimate of our height.
3. Method: Measure the length of the adult's left foot from the wall to the tip of the big toe.
4. Equipment: 1 meter ruler, 30 cm ruler, calculator
5. Results: I found out the my feet were 24 cm and my height was 160 cm.
6. Summary: The police investigated and forensics scientists use 15% of a persons foot length is equal to their Conclusion
7. Conclusion: By knowing what persons foot size is we can determine their approximate height.
