If it bleeds it’s biology; If it stinks it’s chemistry; and if it doesn’t work it’s physics!

Experiments that work don’t always agree with our predictions. The models we use to figure out physics live in the perfect world of mathematics but the real world is messy. In this session we will explore the messiness. What measurements, assumptions, equipment errors are there? When is it appropriate to find a percent error? (When isn’t it appropriate to do that?)

Remember – no one learned anything about cars from a good car!
