'''Air Resistance and Cupcake Cases'''
: Time how long it takes a single Cupcake case to fall from the ground from 1.5 metres high.
: Repeat this for two, three, four and five cupcake cases stacked together.
: This changes the weight without changing the shape of the object.
: If the difference is too small for meaningful results try 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 cases.
: Plot the results on a [[scatter graph]] (not a line graph or bar chart).
