  2. Creepy Silly Putty • Gather materials: • silly putty (all 3 concentrations) • ruler • stopwatch • Form the silly putty into a cylinder with diameter of approximately 1.5 inches. • Hold the ruler so that “0 inches” label is touching the table.

  3. Creepy Silly Putty Group Jobs: forming and holding silly putty, holding the ruler and checking initial placement, operating stopwatch, recording data • Hold one end of the silly putty so that the bottom of the cylinder is 6 inches above the table. • Immediately start the stopwatch. • Record the amount of time it takes for the silly putty to touch the table. • Repeat steps 1–3 two more times. • Complete steps 1–4 for each silly putty concentration. Note: Record you data and any observations!

  4. Reflections • Did you have any variation in the time it took for the silly putty to creep 6 inches when you repeated the experiment for the same concentration? If so, what factors could have caused this? • Why do you think the concentration of borax changed the viscoelastic properties of silly putty?
