What’s In The Bag Adapted from Dr. Margaret Niess
The Basic Idea ¢ Add a certain volume of water to a container measure how much the height increases.
Task 1 Get data to graph Total Volume vs. Height for a bottle with a constant circumference ¢ Get data to graph Total Volume vs. Height for a bottle with a changing circumference ¢ Figure out what the slope of a Total Volume vs. Height graph means ¢

What would be the graph for a beaker?
What would be the graph for a flask?
What Does The Slope Mean The slope is the reciprocal of the area of the bottle
And now for something completely different
See if you can estimate the shape of the bottle
Task 2: See if you can eyeball the shape of the bottle
Task 3: Graph the bottle Given the data and the formula for area come up with a way to calculate the radius for each data point. ¢ See if any unit conversions are needed ¢ Come up with a graph of the Bottle Radius vs. Height ¢
Given To Us ¢ ¢ Some Collected Data We can assume that the bottle has a circular circumference. Areacircle = r 2 Volume = Areacircle *height
