The procedure provided was used with only one change and one correction. The procedure calls for 3 or 4 drops of water to dissolve the dye on the M&M candies but 7 drops were used for each pair of candies because there wasn’t enough water in 4 drops to efficiently dissolve the dyes; the YouTube video for this step from the procedure also showed an application of about 7 drops.

was soaked in water before each drop. Procedure To setup the experiment we had to use three meter sticks and two standard tennis balls. We took all three of the meter sticks aligning them vertically up against the wall. Taping them into place we were then able to use them to measure the height of the dropping point. Using our eye sight we had to determine how far up the ball bounced up on the meter stick. We then proceeded to find three appropriate heights to drop then tennis ball at. Dropping it

o quote the song “Drops of Jupiter” by the band Train‚ “Can you imagine no first dance‚ freeze dried romance‚ five-hour phone conversation‚ the best soy latte that you ever had… and me?” I first time I remember hearing this song was at the state dance team tournament in 2010.
