Bottle Flipping Investigation

Team Bryant conducted a bottle flipping investigation this week. They broke into groups based on their testable question. Some of the different testable questions were:
-Does the way in which the bottle is flipped affect the bottle's landing?
-Does the type (shape) of the bottle affect the bottle's landing?
-Does the amount of liquid affect the bottle's landing?
