RECOMMENDATIONS Some recommendation for this experiment will be: 1) The use of a bigger water tank‚ this will help to minimize the errors when the grades are read‚ because of the small size of the tank the boat touch the corners of the tank and this can change the real grades of inclination. Not only will a bigger tank help with this‚ but it with help also making the water steadier. With the small tank that was used any movement move the boat side to side making hard the reading of the grade
