Question

the passage below describes an experiment. amy gathered eight identical rubber bands. she put two rubber bands in the freezer, two in the fridge, two on the counter at room temperature, and two out in the hot sun. fifteen minutes later, she gathered the rubber bands and measured how far each one could stretch. she then calculated the average for each group to compare her results. identify the question that the experiment can best answer. does the thickness of a rubber band affect how far it can stretch? does the temperature of a rubber band affect how far it can stretch?

Explanation:

Amy places rubber - bands in different temperature environments (freezer, fridge, room - temperature, hot sun) and measures their stretchability. The variable being changed is temperature, so the experiment is designed to test the effect of temperature on rubber - band stretchability.

Answer:

Does the temperature of a rubber band affect how far it can stretch?
