... proportional to the downward force acting on the band, and there will be a elastic limit where the band and the spring can't take no more and will constantly drop and with the band it will actually break. PILOT TEST: Before the actual investigation we did a pilot test to see our estimate results. 'Apparatus: stand & clamp Newton meter Spring elastic band 'Method: In the pilot test I used the above apparatus. First I clamped the Newton meter on, then suspended the spring on. I measured at what point the spring was at without weights on, with a ruler. Then put on 1N of weights and see how low its gone, then repeat the same things 6 times. In the end I found out that the average elastics limit for both was 12N. Then do the same with the elastic band. After getting all the results, plot it down on a ...
