Conclusion
The purpose of my experiment was to find the easiest way to break a bone in one spot. Not where the bones weak-point is. I found that the easiest way to break a bone was "way 1" or the Corner break. And that the hardest way to break a bone was "way 2" or the center pressure break. It was the easiest because I had to apply the least amount pressure. My hypothesis was that "way 3" or the two point pressure break would be the easiest. Unfortunately "Way 1" was the easiest way to break a bone, therefore my hypothesis was wrong. I don't believe that my findings can compare to any other research done by someone. I can give people better information on how they should be more careful with some things that others, because they have a higher chance of breaking a bone. I can also give people tips on how to prevent a bone break, by doing simple things. I think I could improve my experiment by doing more research on how to prevent breaking a bone and what bone you have the biggest chance of breaking.
