What are some possible sources of error for you lab and support your ideas with your observations.
What could you do to make the lab better?
What could Mr. Crane do to make the lab better?
Did this lab contribute to your understanding of fundamental concepts of conservation of energy.
1 Not at all    -----   10 It made me think in the end was clear why and how this should work
