Bouncing Balls Coursework P3 1. Work out the average bounce height and put results in a table. Draw graph of the drop height against bounces height label axis. 2. Looking at my data‚ it is evident that when the drop height is 200cm for instance the average bounce height is 67cm compared to a shorter drop height of 120cm which has a average bounce height of only 50cm. This shows that when the drop height is higher the bounce height is also higher. 3. My data is good as I ensured that it was
