Purpose: To apply knowledge of graphing techniques

Introduction: From the exploratory activity, we learned about your previous knowledge of graphing. The previous invention activity provided an opportunity for you to become acquainted with proper graphing techniques. In this activity, you will take another look at the experimental data given to you in the exploratory activity. Graph the data once again, applying the knowledge and skills you have learned. Look over the scoring rubric carefully to evaluate your graph before submitting it for grading.

Materials: Graph paper

Procedure:

1. Table 1 shows some data that Rafael and Cristine collected during an experiment to measure the stretch of a spring as more force was applied.
   

   Force (N)	Stretch (cm)
   0	0.0
   1	2.1
   2	4.0
   3	5.8
   4	7.9
   5	10.0
