Ashley wants to investigate how objects move and see if she can make correct predictions. She knows she will have to observe the object's motion. She wants to see which surface material will allow a toy car to get down a ramp in the least amount of time. She tests the car on wood, plastic, carpet, and grass.
Using the collected data, which answer choice states a pattern that can be identified regarding the car's motion?

There is more than one pattern that may emerge from data collected during experiments or investigations. In this investigation, Ashley could see a pattern with the car that rolled down the plastic surface. The car on the plastic ramp rolled down the fastest two out of three trials. Ashley could conclude that this car went down the ramp the fastest.

Data collected during experiments or investigations are a great way to look for patterns. In this experiment, there is a bounce (motion) that is measured in inches. Using the trends in the table, we can predict what the next measurement will be. The ball decreases it's bounce by five inches each time, so we can predict that the final bounce will be five inches.

A ball is released at the top of a curved ramp, as seen below. Each time the ball reaches the opposite side, it is measured and recorded. Based on the patterns in the data, what would the ball's measurement be on the fifth roll?

Patterns often emerge in collected data that help us to make predictions about future motion. In this investigation, the measurements are decreasing in two-inch increments. Based on this information, it can be predicted that the final measurement, number five, will be 0 inches. The ball does not gain any additional momentum during its time rolling, only decreasing. The increments are steady so that a pattern can be interpreted for future measurements.

This data reveals a pattern about the cup's motion based on the measurements taken. The cup moves a greater distance as the marble's weight increases. An appropriate prediction would be that the cup would move farther than five inches if the marble were to weigh 50 grams.

How far would the cup travel if a 50-gram marble were rolled into it based on the patterns in the data table below?
Tap to reveal answer
If a 50-gram marble were rolled into the cup, the distance would increase. There is a pattern between the weights of the cup and the movement. Each time the mass of the cup is increased by ten grams, the cup moves two inches. If using the logic created by this pattern, a 50-gram marble would move the cup a total of nine inches. A 40-gram marble would move the cup seven inches (5+2=7), so another ten grams would mean another two inches added (7+2=9) totaling nine grams.

Jill wants to investigate how objects move and see if she can make correct predictions. She knows she will have to observe the object's motion. She wants to see how high different bouncy balls will go on the same surface.

Tap to reveal answer
Jill can make predictions about what will happen in future trials because there are patterns in motion that data helps us to recognize. "Ball 3" bounced the shortest height in all of the previous tests, so, likely, it will again bounce the shortest height. Using patterns and data can help support the prediction that she is making.

This data reveals a pattern about the cup's motion based on the measurements taken. The cup moves a greater distance as the marble's mass increases. An appropriate prediction would be that the cup would move less than one inch if the marble were to weigh 5 grams. This marble's mass would be less than the others, so it would not move the cup as far.

Morion cannot be predicted if there are irregular patterns in the observed and measured data. If the data does not have a regular trend that can be followed, it is challenging, if not impossible, to determine what might happen to the object's motion in the future.
