Vector Lab Post 1

Procedure:
1. Use tape measure to get distance from origin to class room door going either left or right
2. Use tape measure to get distance y i.e. towards and away from the school front doors
3. Add up all x values and y values and record them under vector notation
4. Use Pythagorean theorem to find hypotenuse which will give you numerical notation

Equipment:
Tape measure

Constants:
"z" coordinate was always either 0m or 4.15m

Surprising Observations:
The school seems a lot bigger when doing this experiment.
