Below: Attempts PE calculations for 1 or fewer peaks, or uses an incorrect formula. Writes KE predictions that are not connected to height or energy principles. Evidence Report does not compare predictions to observed results.
Meets: Calculates PE = mgh correctly for all 3 peaks using the provided marble mass and estimated heights, with no more than 1 arithmetic error. Writes a prediction for KE at each peak (3 predictions total) that correctly identifies the directional relationship between height and kinetic energy (e.g., taller peak = less KE at that point). Compares predictions to observed results in the Evidence Report for all 3 peaks using at least 1 specific physics term per peak.
