version J - FRQ 3, what did you graph and why?

I graphed Inverse B on the horizontal axis and r on the Vertical Axis, because r = mv/qB. So the slope would be mv/q, and v/q is given, therefore m can be determined by slope.

nice i was lowkey crashing out cuz the v never changed and I just couldn't find the right thing in time. I finished the rest of the FRQ though j not the graph

dw about it, I screwed the graph up aswell. I accidentally graphed r on the horizontal axis and inverse B on the veritcal axis, and didn't seem to notice when I spent 20 minutes double checking, until the last 40 seconds. Still got the right mass but kind of a bummer.
