1. Since this will not be a straight line, determine what you would need to do to the distance to obtain a straight-line graph.

2. Once changed to straight-line graph, derive the theoretical value of the slope. Determine what that would be using your measured values. Compare to the actual slope of the graph(from the equation of the trend line).
