Which Bounces Higher A Hot Or Cold Tennis Ball?

Many of you have written us and asked how to conduct this experiment. This month (February, 2000) we'll conduct this experiment "on-line". Each week we'll step through a different part of the experiment with you. Here's our schedule:
  • February 5-11th - Define the Problem and Collect Information To Solve The Problem;
  • February 12 - 18th - Determine The Materials and Experiment Procedure
  • February 19-27th - Conduct The Experiment and Document Your Results;
  • February 28-29th - Explain Why The Balls Behave That Way and Share Your Results With Us During the Web Chat.

To get started you might want to review "How To Conduct A Research Project". Also start thinking about the following: What questions do you want to answer? Try to write a couple down. For example, in addition to the question :"Which bounces higher - a hot or cold tennis ball?", you might also want to answer "Does this or how does this affect a tournament game?"
