Math 151 - Fall 2015 - Assignment2 - Project #2



This assignment requires you to make measurements on yourself twice a day for four days and to submit the results using this google form. You will need to enter data for each night separately by opening the form four times. Take these measurements each night for August 19-22 and submit the data by 5PM on Sunday August 22.

The measurements you are to take are your height (in millimeters) just before you go to sleep at night and just after you wake up in the morning, as well as how many hours of sleep you had that evening. Make these measurements in bare feet, and I suggest that you tape a paper ruler onto a wall that you can stand in front of, and use a book or other flat, hard surface placed on top of your head to determine the height. A ruler you can use is available at http://www.vendian.org/mncharity/dir3/paper_rulers/. In doing this, tape the paper ruler on a wall so the zero edge is below the top of your head, and measure (using another ruler), the height to the zero edge in millimeters. We are most concerned in this set of observations in the difference in heights between evening and morning, not in the precise height (so don't worry if the overall height is not correct to the millimeter).

In putting your data into the form you will need your student ID number. You will not be able to see the data submitted by others, but we will use the complete data from the entire class during the class session on August 24.

Note: if you click on the google form and you see a statement that says "You Need Permission", do not click the Request Access button. In order to use the google form you need to be logged into your UT Google account and you may have several other google accounts. So log out of any other google account you are in, then login using your UTK Google Drive account. Details on all this are here.
