Your initial message (if any):

Is flow rate increasing, decreasing, etc.?

Is the velocity of the water surface increasing, decreasing, etc.?

How would the velocity of the water surface, the velocity of the exiting water, the diameter of the cylinder and the diameter of the hole be interrelated?

Explain how we know that a change in velocity implies the action of a force:

Does the depth seem to be changing at a regular rate, at a faster and faster rate, or at a slower and slower rate

What do you think a graph of depth vs. time would look like?

Does the horizontal distance (the distance to the right, ignoring the up and down distance) traveled by the stream increase or decrease as time goes on?

Does this distance change at an increasing, decreasing or steady rate?

What do you think a graph of this horizontal distance vs. time would look like?

The contents of TIMER program as you submitted them:

The vertical positions of the large marks as you reported them, relative to the center of the outflow hole

Your table for depth (in cm) vs clock time (in seconds)

Is the depth changing at a regular rate, at a faster and faster rate, or at a slower and slower rate?

Your description of your depth vs. t graph:

Your explanation and list of average average velocities:

The midpoints of your time intervals and how you obtained them:

Your table of average velocity of water surface vs. clock time:

Your description of your graph of average velocity vs clock time:

Your explanation of how acceleration values were obtained:

Your acceleration vs clock time table:

According to the evidence here, is acceleration increasing, decreasing, staying the same or is in not possible to tell?
