Step 2: Collect Data
- Make a chart like this one in your lab notebook or on your device.
- Have your partner walk the 20-meter course. At the moment he or she moves past the 5-meter entry zone and into the 10-meter data collection zone, start your stopwatch. At the moment he or she finishes walking through the data collection zone and crosses into the 5-meter exit zone, stop your stopwatch.
- Write down the number of seconds (round to the nearest hundredth) it took for your partner to walk through the 10- meter data collection zone.
- Repeat this procedure and average the two times. Then trade jobs so your partner can collect data about you.
