As was hypothesized, the time taken to fall through the copper tube increased as the number of magnets did. However, the relationship was not quite linear. As shown in Figure 3.1, when the average times were plotted against the corresponding number, the graph exhibited a positive polynomial trend, more specifically, one of a quadratic. Figure 3.1 This would mean that as the number of magnets increased, it would take more and more time to fall through. Thus, it is expected that at some point, the

4. What are the pros and cons of management using theexperience curve to determine strategy? The experience curve is an idea developed by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) in the mid-1960s.
