Creating a Graph for Pulley Experiment Data

In this guide, learn how to create a graph for your pulley experiment data using graph paper. Start by drawing the X and Y axes, labeling the X-axis with the range of the dependent variable (MA) from 1 to 6 and the Y-axis with the independent variable (EF in Newtons) ranging from 1.0 N to 11.0 N. Prepare to plot data points for five pulleys, ensuring accurate representation without connecting dots directly. Finally, draw a line of best fit lightly, reflecting the underlying pattern in the data, and consult with Mr. Gussin for guidance.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Pulley Lab Graph

  2. Graph • Get a blank sheet of graph paper

  3. Graph • Draw Y axis • Draw X axis

  4. Graph • Draw Y axis • Draw X axis

  5. Graph • On the X axis, Write the range for the dependent variable, MA. • 1 to 6

  6. Graph • On the Y axis, write the range for the independent variable, EF in Newtons. • From 1.0 N to 11.0 N

  7. Do not write this data on your graph! This data will be found on the Data Table for each Pulley Graph • For Pulleys 1 through 5 • Plot the data points as EF and MA

  8. Graph • Plot a data point for each pulley • 5 pulleys, 5 data points!

  9. Graph • In a nonlinear graph, lines are not drawn dot to dot through data points. • For our Line of Best Fit, the nonlinear graph is drawn to fit or include some but not all data points. • The Line of Best Fit should show the pattern described by the data

  10. Graph • Line of Best Fit is a compromise. • To do it well you would have to understand what it is for. • Make the line VERY LIGHTLY and show it to Mr. Gussin if you are unsure.
