Modifying the Experiment

We've been told to add weights until it touches the ground... That's quite difficult because of the height of the rod above the ground. So we've decided to modify the model a little. We've lowered the rod to decrease the height off the ground and re-do the experiment. This will allow the weight to touch the ground without the rod potentially breaking. If the rod breaks we wouldn't have another rod to experiment with.
