A student observes that the craters on the moon are different sizes. The student designs an experiment to study the formation of craters. The materials for the experiment are marbles and a pan of flour. Which is the missing step.

Step 1.) Fill a round pan with flour.

Step 2.) Smooth out the flour in the pan.

Step. 3.) __________________________________

Step 4.) For each trial, measure the size of the crater formed and then smooth out the flour again.

• Drop the same marble from different heights into the pan of flour.

• Drop marbles of different masses from the same height into the pan.

• Drop marbles of different sizes from different heights into the pan.

• Drop a single marble one time into the pan.
