Writing coursework, especially on a scientific topic like "Impact Craters" for GCSE, can be

challenging for several reasons. Firstly, it requires a deep understanding of the subject matter, which
may involve complex scientific concepts and principles. Researching and analyzing data related to
impact craters can also be time-consuming.

Furthermore, organizing and structuring the coursework in a coherent and logical manner is crucial.
This involves presenting the information in a way that is easy for the reader to follow, while also
demonstrating a clear understanding of the topic. Meeting the specific requirements and guidelines
provided by the educational institution adds another layer of complexity.

In addition, the writing process itself demands strong analytical and writing skills. Communicating
scientific ideas effectively requires precision, clarity, and the ability to convey complex information
in a comprehensible manner.

For those facing challenges or time constraints, seeking assistance from professional writing services
can be a viable option. ⇒ HelpWriting.net ⇔ is one such service that may provide support in
crafting well-researched and well-written coursework. However, it's important to approach such
services with caution and ensure they adhere to ethical writing standards.

While seeking external help is an option, it is equally important for students to engage with the
coursework, as it is an opportunity to deepen their understanding of the subject and develop essential
academic skills. Balancing external support with personal efforts can lead to a more enriching
learning experience.
Slumping of the rim further modifies and enlarges the final crater. I have not found any anomalous
readings and this shows that the results collected were accurate enough. These will be the smallest
height I intend to drop the ball bearing from and the greatest height I intend to drop it from. This
could have been counteracted by dropping the ball down a pipe which was clamped above the centre
of the tray of sand. These are much easier to read from than a ruler and they are much more
accurate. Although with the rest of the graph there is a strong positive correlation with my results
which relates back to the prediction and theory of gravity ( the higher I drop the marble the bigger
the effect of gravity and kinetic energy therefore causing a bigger crater ). There were a few which
were not accurate and this was probably due to the ball being dropped with force or at an angle. Jana

Maybe the grains have an energy threshold, below which they do not move when struck. I will only
change the height of which I will be dropping the marble, for example dropping the marble at
multiples of ten. Unfortunately due to the restrictions of time and the lack of height in the lab, this
could not be investigated. The reason they were proportional is because the deeper the crater
produced the wider it must be and therefore they should be reasonably proportional. The linear
relationship would suggest that there is a constant that could be found and applied to balls of any
diameter. See other similar resources ?5.00 (no rating) 0 reviews BUY NOW Save for later Not quite

How does the drop height of a small and a large marble affect the size of t. This supports what I
predicted using the knowledge I already had. This would allow me to remove the ball with the
magnet and thus measure the depth of the crater. The depth once again has not been affected by the
velocity of the ball, so this is encouraging. You could drop the marble with different amounts of force
to see if that would make a difference to the results. The central peak or peak ring of the complex
crater is formed as the initial. This could be due to the fact that I did not measure the size of the
crater carefully enough or I did not pay enough attention when dropping the marble from different
heights. I will keep the density of the sand and the size of the ball constant. Average distance from
the Earth: 238,900 miles Orbits the Earth every 27.3 days. I would also use a better system to
measure where I was dropping the ball in the box of sand as mentioned above, for example dropping
the ball down a tube. After this if the ball had been dropped from a higher height it would have no
longer produced a bigger crater because there would be no sand left to push outwards. This means
the higher the marble is dropped from the bigger the crater caused by the marble should be. The
problems that I thought about safety is that as I’m dropping the marble from a distance the marble
may miss the sand tray and hit the table and also as the marble will be plunging down into the sand,
some sand may fall out. Research, hypothesis, method, diagram, results, graph, conclusion,

deeper and deeper into the sand throwing out more sand; however the deeper the ball went into the
sand the more compacted the sand became. This was because the higher the object was dropped
from the more gravitational potential energy the object gathered, increasing the speed of the ball,

So if my graph were a straight line it would be a very big crater. I think I repeated each height
enough times to make this investigation reliable but there is room for improvement if I was to redo it.
This is to be expected, as the ball will have some horizontal speed from the release ramp. This was
because the higher the object was dropped from the more gravitational potential energy the object
gathered, increasing the speed of the ball, concluding the ball had more of an impact on the surface,
creating a bigger crater as the gravitational energy was transferred as kinetic energy to the sand. The
sand was very good at stopping balls dropped vertically or from a steep angle, but the retardation of
balls at a shallow angle was much less. So if the mass of the ball bearing were greater the G.P.E
would be greater so therefore the K.E would be higher so the crater would be larger. The only way to
know for sure is to plot a graph of log length against Angle for those last five points. If I repeated
this experiment I think it would be useful to use more scientific and reliable equipment. To make the
experiment more accurate with the same apparatus I could have emptied the sand container as
previously mentioned. Reviews Select overall rating (no rating) Your rating is required to reflect

technology could be used to drop the ball. Short of painstakingly finding identically sized balls of
exact masses, the best option was to cut a table tennis ball in half. When it hits the sand the kinetic
energy is transferred into the sand as heat and more kinetic energy moving the sand out of the way.
There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase,
a SQL command or malformed data. Sending a shock through the sand and pushing the sand out
around the hole produced. If I was to repeat the experiment with different apparatus I would use
digital callipers to obtain more accurate readings as the callipers I used were not accurate enough as
the small numbers were hard to read. The problems that I thought about safety is that as I’m
dropping the marble from a distance the marble may miss the sand tray and hit the table and also as
the marble will be plunging down into the sand, some sand may fall out. This is not the case as the
sand becomes deeper it becomes more compacted and therefore it provides a larger force. The semi-
log graph should be a straight line, if the relationship is exponential. Possibly a rake or a large flat
object could have been used to level the sand and break up any clumps. Acknowledgements. Roger
