  1. Which ball will go the highest By: Aazer Rae

  2. My big question was which ball will go the highest. Soccer ball (kick, throw) Football (kick, throw) Tennis ball (throw) The reason I did this experiment was because I wanted to know if weight would effect how high a ball goes. Big Question

  3. My hypothesis is that the soccer ball will go the highest. I chose this because a soccer ball is meant to be kicked. Hypothesis

  4. Facts • #1. Soccer is called football in other countries besides America. • #2. Major League Soccer set all-times attendance record for a United States-based professional soccer league game at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, on June 16, 1996. That day, 92,216 fans watched the Los Angeles Galaxy win a 3-2 shootout victory over the Tampa Bay Mutiny. • #3. His real name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento, But the soccer world knows him as Pele. A native of Brazil, Pele retired as a player in 1977 but is still considered by many the greatest soccer player who ever lived. Since his retirement, he has been a worldwide ambassador for his sport. Wherever soccer is played, the name of Pele will always be magic. • #4. A standard soccer ball is made of leather and is between 27 and 28 inches in circumference. Unlike basketball, young players can use a smaller ball. For kids 8 years old or younger, a ball of 23 to 24 inches in circumference is recommended. For kids 9 to 12, a ball of 25 to 26 inches is often used.

  5. More Facts • · Soccer originated generally in its present form in Britain. • · Worlds oldest club formed in 1857 is Sheffield FC • · Soccer is the most played and most watched sport on Earth • · Soccer is called football in practically every country except America, who call 'Grid Iron' football and football soccer. • · Famous soccer rivalries include the Old Firm (Scotland), Manchester derby, London derbies, Milan derby, Real vs Barcelona, and many more. • · Some famous soccer players: Pele, Maradonna, Charlton, Eusebio, Cruyff, Dalglish, Ronaldo, Beckham, Mattheus.

  6. Materials • Soccer ball • Football • Tennis ball

  7. Experiment • Step 1 : get items “soccer ball, football, tennis ball”. • Step 2 : measure how high the house is. • Step 3 : kick soccer ball and see how high the ball goes (refer to the house). • Step 4 : repeat 3 times to get average. • Step 5 : do again with football. • Step 6 : throw soccer ball and see how high it goes (refer to the house) • Step 7 : repeat 3 times to get average. • Step 8 : do again with football and tennis ball

  8. There was no control control was. The variables: soccer ball (kick, throw) football (kick, throw) tennis ball (kick, throw) Control & Variables

  9. Observations • #1 : The heaviest ball (soccer ball) traveled less height. • #2 : The lightest ball (tennis ball) traveled the most height. • #3 : The medium weight ball (football) traveled medium height to the tennis ball. • #4 : More force caused the balls to go higher.

  10. Data

  11. Analysis • The Tennis Ball went the highest because of its lightest weight. • The medium angle achieved the maximum distance. • The Soccer Ball went the least distance because of the highest weight.

  12. Conclusion • My hypothesis was incorrect. • I would change the football to a basket ball and I would change the height to distance. • My new question are: in distance would weigh matter and does it matter from what angle you kick.
