32 Gillian carried out an experiment to invesbgate the craters formed when steel balls are dropped into sand. To try and find the relabonship between the diameter of the crater and the energy of impact of steel balls of the same diameter, she dropped a steel ball from different heights h into sand and measured the resulbng diameter d of the crater. The data are shown ploied below. The uncertainty in the measurement of d is ±0.40 cm; the uncertainty in h is too small to be shown. Draw error bars for the data point (0.2, 0.047) and the data point (2.0, 0.10).

33 Gillian carried out an experiment to invesbgate the craters formed when steel balls are dropped into sand. To try and find the relabonship between the diameter of the crater and the energy of impact of steel balls of the same diameter, she dropped a steel ball from different heights h into sand and measured the resulbng diameter d of the crater. The data are shown ploied below. The original hypothesis, made by Gillian, was that the diameter of the crater is directly proporbonal to the energy of impact of the steel balls. Explain why the data does not support this hypothesis.
