As the Bungee Cord operator you only get one chance to get Barbie's thrill jump correct. You will have to determine the length of the bungee cord being used by Barbie to give her the best jump. After she makes her jump, you will need to report what the spring constant was of the bungee cord so that it can be used for other Barbies from around the world who also seek such a thrill.
In this activity, you will simulate a bungee jump using a BarbieĀ® doll and rubber bands. Before you conduct the experiment, formulate a conjecture: I believe that _____ is the maximum number of rubber bands that will allow Barbie to safely jump from a height of 400 cm. Now, conduct the experiment to test your conjecture.
Summary Bungee jumping requires a lot of pre-planning and testing before the real thing occurs. If it wasn't for this, if somebody just jumped off the edge of something tall with a rope, it might not be safe! In this experiment, students will be tying rubber bands to a Barbie doll to recreate bungee jumping on a miniature scale. They will be making predictions on what will be happening.
3. Number 1 and 2 give the slope and y-intercept. If you can, write an equation below.
Barbie Bungee In this activity, you will simulate a bungee jump using a BarbieĀ® doll and rubber bands. You will lose clients and your business will suffer. 10.
So based on your line of best fit, your prediction for the number of rubber bands for the bungee line for Barbie jump from a height of 3 meters is ________________. 11. Now, you are ready to test out the jump using the number of rubber bands you wrote for #10.

The position of the doll over time follows the simple harmonic motion equation. 2. Teacher Key Barbie Bungee Activity Intro Purpose You are going to create a bungee line for Barbie that will give her the most thrilling, yet SAFE, fall from a height of (tallest place you can drop Barbie - 2 meter ladder, top of 5 meter foyer from balcony rail, 10 meters in open stairwell) meters.
(or feet) Procedures. Purpose You are going to create a bungee line for Barbie that will give her the most thrilling, yet SAFE, fall from a height of _____ meters. Use your diagram of the bungee jump to help support where your numbers for your calculations came from.
(Be sure to show the slow mo video during this portion when you mention how you got Barbie's height off of the ground when the bungee was fully stretched.) Keep your screencast to less than 5 minutes.
