Need help with table

Post by Mandy1904 »

Hi, my project is “Star light, Star bright: How Does Light Intensity Change with Distance?“ and I’m a little confused on how to fill out the table with the distance and the trials.

Hi Mandy1904,
Can you help clarify what part of the table is causing confusion please?

Based on the experiment procedure https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... #procedure, the distance column of the chart is the distance from the light to the phone sensor in centimeter. Trial 1, 2, and 3 records the light intensity reading from the phone readout. (And finally, the last column is the average of the Trial 1, 2 and 3.)

Good Luck and please post again if there's anything else we can help to clarify.
