PURPOSE: To see how being dizzy affects the astronaut when building a dice tower.
HYPOTHESIS: They both felt that they could build a dice tower while being dizzy.
MATERIALS: 5 dice, a swivel chair, one counter, a pen/pencil, and a piece of paper.
PROCEDURE:
1) When you are not dizzy (normal) stack the dice one by one up to 5 (have someone time how long it takes).
2)Then the astronaut gets spun in the swivel chair until dizzy.
3) Make them try to stack the 5 dice again and time it.
4) Record your results.
RESULTS: Shayna
got a time of 4.13 seconds when she wasn't dizzy and she got 3.71
seconds when she was dizzy. Tessa got a time of 4.67 seconds when
she wasn't dizzy and she got a time of 6.89 seconds when she was dizzy.
CONCLUSION: When you are dizzy it is harder to do things such as building.
