The Question: Does temperature affect the elasticity of a rubber band? Our Hypothesis: We thought that in hot water that it will be the most elastic. Simply because hot water make things stretchy and moveable like balsa wood. Material: 1. Three Cups 2. Nine rubber bands (should be the same) 3. Cold Water 4. Hot Water 5. Room Temperature Water 6.
