The Path of the Ball by Qwest and Shane

In math b, we did an experiment based on parabolas. We had to throw a ball in the air and see if it came straight down or in an arc shape. I believed that when you throw a ball in the air it came down in a striaght line, but it actually doesn't it comes down in an arc shape. This experiment taught me a lot. If you dont believe me just look at my graph that was made during the experiment. You can model the pat of a ball as it is in the air by continuously throwing it up in the air and graph it using Microsoft Exell for accuracy. It is generally displayed as an upside down parabloa and it curves!!!!!If you need more proof try it yourself.
