Objective : Measure the amount Calories in a food source using Physics.
You may discuss lab results and input your results using the form link below. LAB RESULTS
if you also set a fruit loop or some kind of cereal on fire then explain how it was different from the nut. For example if it burned really fast then it shows that that type of food releases quick energy while the nut burned rather slowly, etc.
I also had a high percentage difference (67.52). Since we didn't have a package, I used information online, which stated there is 7 calories per gram in an almond.
I'm also pointing out that percent error (actual/theoretical) is not the same as percent difference which is: (Actual-theoretical)/((Actual+Theoretical)/2)
I also have a zero. The calender states that the due date is on Friday, and since we had Stangfest I assumed we could submit it anytime by Friday, as done on previous labs.
Is this for freshman or no???

Deleteis ti ohysics calorie or food calorie?
ReplyDeleteis anybody else getting like really high percent differences (~70-80)?

Deletei also used the online information

ReplyDeletei got a 75 percent difference, also entered my results and there is a zero in for it, is it because u didnt grade it or something went wrong
