# In 1609, Galileo proved mathematically that the horizontal distance traveled # by an object with an initial horizontal velocity is a parabola. He based his # insight on an experimental setup consisting of a ball placed at a certain # height on a ramp and then released. The distance travelled was then # measured. The data consists of 2 variables measured by Galileo. One is initial # height and one the horizontal distance traveled. # Fit 4 polynomial models of distance modelled by initial height. Use linear, # parabola, cubic and quartic models. Compare the models by the means of F-test # and AIC criterion. Which model fits better?
