... An Investigation into the elastic properties of different thickness of elastic bands. Planning Aim: the aim of this experiment is to find out what effect that different thickness' of elastic bands has to the amount they stretch under a series of different weights. To test this I shall use different thickness' of elastic band that are all the same length.. The final adjustment I shall make is to measure the thickest band with greater weights as well. This will show the effect of weight and its relation to the amount the band stretches. Hypothesis: According to hook's law the expansion of a spring is proportional to the weight it supports. If the same applies to the rubber band it to should increase in the amount it has expanded when a greater weight is applied. I therefore am able to predict that although not all the time the band will expand at the same
