🧪 Rubber Band Energy Setup Check
Collaboration
Submission Required
Teams conduct a structured pre-launch calibration of their popsicle stick catapults. Students measure and record launch angle (using a protractor), projectile mass (grams), rubber band stretch length (cm), and table-to-target distance. They confirm identified constants from their methodology plan and document any last-minute procedural adjustments in their research notebooks.
