Graphic in excel for practicum

In summary, the conversation is about making three charts for measurements in a physics experiment, with the requirement of using linear, exponential, and logarithmic trendlines. There seems to be an issue with the last two trendlines not following the data points. It is suggested to show the graphs and data to determine what went wrong, and it is confirmed that the data should follow exponential/logarithmic functions. It is also questioned whether the measurements were incorrect to begin with.

Homework Statement


So I have to make three charts for the measurments that we made in class (physics experiments but it's not important). The first one had to be with a linear trendline, the second one with a exponential and the third one with a logarithmic trendline. For some reason the last two trendlines don't follow the dots from the measurements.

Homework Equations



What kan I do to fix it?

It is impossible to tell what went wrong if you don't show the graphs (and the data, if relevant).
Do you expect the data to follow an exponential/logarithmic function?

Yes, the last two had to be in a logarithmic\exponential trendline. Do you think the measurments were wrong to begin with?

Yes the last two had to be those, do you think the measurments were wrong to begin with?
