An Investigation to the relationship between the distance the crater is dropped from a the size of the resultant crater. Strand P - Planning your investigation. A crater is a bowl-shaped depression on the surfaces of planets and other bodies in the solar system. A lot craters on the earth are formed by volcanic activity although a lot of craters are formed by meteorites. I am going to use a 88g ball which will replace the meteorite and I will measure the diameter of impact on the sand which replaces the crater. Prediction: I predict that as the height increases the diameter of the crater will increase too. I predict this because I know that a force called gravity pulls things of a certain weight down to earth. An 88g ball will definitely be pulled down to earth by gravity. The reason I think the higher the fall the larger the diameter...
