Bumblebee Buses

    In Physics, on Thursday, our class split up and did another lab, which I call the bumblebee buses. We had to measure the distance our little bus went during an allotted time from a reference point. Mr.Bataglia made the time the independent variable and the distance the dependent variable. That complicated things slightly. But it worked out in the end. Mr.Bataglia gave our group a second part to the lab and made us start our bus 30cm behind the reference point. We finished that part as well.
   While our class was having a whiteboard discussion, I noticed that our second graph had a y intercept that was negative while multiple other groups had a y intercept of 30. Now I am not so sure we gathered the information correctly. This is probably something I could bring up in the whiteboard discussion.
