Results

Hi again, i recently did my experiment on the weekend. I realise the hand looks freaky but i cut myself out of the picture... also, the method was used from the previous post.

Needless to say, i wore quite a lot of protective gear (long sleeved jumper, safety goggles) because it was pretty scary about putting your face and hands so close to a 'to-be-ruptured' rubber band. We all know it hurts. I didn't wear gloves though as it may interfere with the accuracy of the experiment.
Here are the results:



NB: Sorry you have to squint

All the measurements taken above are read and done by hand. The average is converted from kilograms to Newtons by using a formula: kilograms*9.8m/s/s= Newtons.
