  1. Constructing Graphs:

Using your data from Table 1, plot the following graphs:

  1. Vertical versus horizontal displacement
  2. Vertical displacement versus time of motion

Using your data from Table 2, plot the following graphs:

  1. Initial speed versus time 
  2. Initial speed versus horizontal displacement
  1. Organizing Data: Using the values of horizontal displacement (Δx) and time, calculate the average horizontal velocity for each of your trials in Table 2. You may want to create a new table in your spreadsheet for this calculation.
