You Are My Sun Plot! My Only Sun Plot!

After much time spent waiting for the snow to melt, and the rain to go away I was finally able to find sunshine to create a sun plot. I collected data with three of my sorority sisters, Averi Hess, Sarah Brown and Jessica Byers, who are all in the class with me. We used a light post that we measured and measured the shadow of the post at different times of the day, as well as recording the direction of the shadow with a compass on an iphone.

Data Collected:

Time	Pole Height	Shadow Length	Degree of Shadow
9:45	210	274	217 SW
10:45	210	203	196 S
11:45	210	156	193 S
12:45	210	141	140 SE
1:45	210	158	116 SE
4:45	210	383	65 NE
