A 22 FACTORIAL EXPERIMENT
Tablet zoomed in to
bounce height range
for better accuracy on

The Procedure
Our Considerations
A single operator performed all drops to ensure
that release method was the same every time
Accept Exclude
This was our attempt to minimize noise from any
shape deviation in the balls that might cause
lateral movement rather than vertical

Different Operators
Assumed that in with a simple dropping motion
there would not be a measurable difference
Was Our Experiment
Successful?
Yes!
Clearly defined the factor that determines bounce height
