How fast do icicles grow? Japanese researchers measured the growth of iciclesin a cold chamber under various conditions of temperature, wind, and water flow.4Table 4.2 contains data produced under two sets of conditions. In both cases,there was no wind and the temperature was set at 11C. Water flowed over theicicle at a higher rate (29.6 milligrams per second) in Run 8905 and at a slowerrate (11.9 mg/s) in Run 8903.(a) Make a scatterplot of the length of the icicle in centimeters versus time inminutes, using separate symbols for the two runs.(b) What does your plot show about the pattern of growth of icicles? What doesit show about the effect of changing the rate of water flow on icicle growth?
