The Pit and the Pendulum Read the story together as a class. In your groups, discuss the following: Draw your own design of the main character and the pendulum List out the important information given to determine if an escape is possible. Is there any information that is missing that you would like to know? THE INITIAL QUESTION Did the main character really have time to carry out his escape plan? 2

Focused. Question How long will it take for Poe's pendulum to make 12 swings? Your Estimate: In order to answer this question, you will need to: 1. Find out which variable(s) affect the period of a pendulum 2. Collect data on the periods of different pendulums by changing the variables listed 3. Find "patterns" in the data to predict 12 swings of a 30ft pendulum Summary: 6
Group Discussion 1. What variables possibly affect the time of a swinging pendulum? 2. Choose one of the variables above as your focus. As a group, design a pendulum at your desks. See if your variable affects the period of the pendulum. Write a brief summary on your findings. (These are supposed to be very vague directions) 3. As a class, discuss what your goup did and what happened with your pendulum. 7

Stopwatch Activity You have been challenged to try and get a stopwatch to land exactly on 5 seconds, but you cannot look at the stopwatch. Each person should attempt this 5 times each. Record your data into the table given, then draw the frequency histogram. After we do our individual group data, we will combine our data as an entire class <4.00 4.00 4.25 4.26 4.50 4.51 4.75 4.76 5.00 5.01 5.25 5.26 5.50 5.51 5.75 5.76 6.00 >6.00 10

What's Your Pulse? Calculate how many times your heart is beating per minute. An easy way is to measure your pulse for 10 seconds, then multiply that number by 6. Record your results into the frequency table. (Hint: What is different about this frequency table compared to the others? Then, transfer your data into a frequency histogram 50 bpm 50 < bpm 55 55 < bpm 60 60 < bpm 65 65 < bpm 70 70 < bpm 75 75 < bpm 80 80 < bpm 85 85 < bpm 90 90 < bpm 95 95 < bpm 100 > 100 13
