Science

Hey guys welcome back to the blog post I will be doing another science expropriate with the science teacher.

THE FEET CAN MEASURE THE HEIGHT


The bones of the feet can tell a lot about a person. What do feet reveal about a person's height? Forensic anthropologists team up with law enforcers to help solve crimes.
Bones of the feet can reveal an interesting fact about an individual. Let's combine math with forensics to see how.

Aim:  To use forensic science techniques to measure the height of a criminal.

Material:

  1.  Myself
  2. ruler


Steps:

  1.  Get a ruler.
  2.  Then measure my foot.
  3.  Then measure my height.

  5.  

Findings:


Name
Foot  (cm)
Height (cm)
Jessica P26.cm520.cm
Tennessee99.cm190.cm
liyah59.cm590.cm

15 is the number used by investigators to determine a persons height based on their feet. This is because 15% of a persons height is the length of their foot.

Find out what percentage of your height is your feet. To do this you need to:
Divide the length of each person's foot by his/her height then multiply it by 100.
