query predictions

Sketch your graph representing the predicted height of the low end vs. the weight on the spring.

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

the spring will stretch out farther with higher weight but if stretched to far it will be damaged and won't be able to return to its original shape

STUDENT RESPONSE:

I predict that the spring will stretch at a greater rate as the weight is added. In my experience, springs lose their strength as they are stretched, and will not go back to their original shape.

INSTRUCTOR COMMENT:

** Within their range of elasticity the graph is very nearly linear.

If stretched too far the spring will lose its permanent elastic properties and will then deviate from linearity **

RESPONSE -->

I did not state in my previous answer what I expected the graph to be but I predicted it would be linear and it was

** If you predicted a linear graph then did the actual graph confirm this? If you predicted a curvature did the actual graph confirm this? **
