Program

In this exercise, there is no program, we will just have fun finding the center of gravity.


Measure, analyze, think

  • Make your own pictures and recordings
  • Attach different objects so that the center of gravity will change. Try to estimate its position by guessing first, then verify by measurement.

Explore and modify

  • Modify the program so that ...
  • Modify the model so that ...

Present

  • Prepare a short presentation for other groups. Tell others about how your measurement went, what issues did you have to solve. What do they mean and why did they happen?
