Part 1.
  1. What was the surface area of your boat?
  2. How many pennies did it hold?
  3. Looking at the data table for the class, is there a correlation to the surface area and the number of pennies? Does more surface area hold more pennies?
  4. What happened when the mass of the pennies in the boat got greater than the buoyance force of the water pushing up on the boat?
