Gravity Lab

Data Analysis: labels and units!
0.06kg            0.589
0.07kg            0.681 
0.08kg            0.786 
0.09kg            0.891 
0.1kg              0.997

VM: As the weight  mass increases, the force increases.
MM: Fg = (10.26N/Kg)mass-0.0032N
Slope: For every 1 Kg added, the force increases by 10.26 N.
Y-int: Where the mass is zero Kg, the force is -0.0032N
(the y-int should be 0 because if there is nothing hanging there would be no force)

Claims/Evidence/Conclusion
Mass and weight are both different. Mass is the measure of matter in an object while weight is the measure of how hard gravity is pulling an object. Everyones graph is the same becasue the amount strength of the field of gravity on an object is ALWAYAS the same and they are all linear.. Our graph is a bit different from others because we had different masses but everyone has similar slopes. Fg=mg means that the force is equal to mass x gravity. It gives you the amount of pull on the mass due to gravity.all points are there....  but conclusion could be better written, clearer, and proofread it!
