Hypothesis

• My hypothesis is that the soccer ball will go the highest.

Wherever soccer is played, the name of Pele will always be magic.

• #4. A standard soccer ball is made of leather and is between 27 and 28 inches in circumference. Unlike basketball, young players can use a smaller ball.

Experiment

• Step 1 : get items “soccer ball, football, tennis ball”.• Step 2 : measure how high the house is.• Step 3 : kick soccer ball and see how high the ball goes

(refer to the house).• Step 4 : repeat 3 times to get average. • Step 5 : do again with football. • Step 6 : throw soccer ball and see how high it goes (refer

to the house) • Step 7 : repeat 3 times to get average. • Step 8 : do again with football and tennis ball

Analysis

• The Tennis Ball went the highest because of its lightest weight.

• The medium angle achieved the maximum distance.

• The Soccer Ball went the least distance because of the highest weight.

Conclusion

• My hypothesis was incorrect.• I would change the football to a basket ball

and I would change the height to distance. • My new question are: in distance would

weigh matter and does it matter from what angle you kick.
