| *For this experiment, the independent variable is the brand of tennis ball. The dependent variable is the distance traveled by the ball. This is determined by using a measuring tape to measure the distance traveled. The constants (control variables) are the settings and position of the tennis ball launcher, the conditions of the field and the temperature/wind conditions. *The balls are first numbered and marked using a permanent marker pen. *The bounciness of the tennis balls is first determined. They are dropped from a height of 1 meter on to a flat surface and the number of times it ..... | ||
