they are cold blooded and the cold weather makes them slower. Being cold blooded‚ means that it adapts to the climate more as the temperature changes. Experimental Design The controlled group is the group where all the mealworms where at room temperature. The experimental variable was that we needed warm water and ice. The experimental set-up was that we made a hot and cold climate for the mealworms. For the hot climate the temperature kept rising and the cold climate went down

My lab results were similar to my hypothesis. My hypothesis was that the densest object would be the rubber stopper. In the lab results the densest object was the penny and the rubber stopper was second. My hypothesis was switched. My hypothesis was correct when I stated that the macaroni was the third densest object. My hypothesis was also correct for the dice‚ but the bead and the dice share the same density. So they are both the fourth densest item. I was wrong with my hypothesis when I placed

LAB # 5 Relationship Between Drop Height and Diameter of Plasticine Sphere PROBLEM: A student suggest that there is a proportional relationship between height at which a plasticine sphere is dropped and the diameter of the flattened part after dropping. Design an experiment to determine if this suggestion is true or not. AIM: To investigate the relationship between the drop height and the flattened part of a plasticine sphere after being dropped. HYPOTHESIS: As the height of the sphere plasticine

DP Physics IA Thermal physics: Specific Heat Capacity of Metals Introduction: In this experiment we are going to measure the specific heat capacity of a unknown metal. To measure the specific heat capacity we will heat up the metal to certain temperature and release the metal in beaker filled with water. By knowing the mass and temperature of water filled in beaker‚ we will be able to calculate the specific capacity of unknown metal by change in temperature of beaker willed

Physics Waves Lab SL Introduction: This lab will investigate the properties of mechanical waves such as a longitudinal wave‚ focusing on the question: Does a change in the frequency of a wave result in a significant and convincing change in the speed of the wave? Hypothesis: Changing the frequency of the wave will not result in a change in speed because the wavelength will change proportionally as in theory. Student Designed Investigation Procedure/ Planning Procedure: 1. Three

The Uniqueness of Experimental Research * Experimental research is unique in that it is the only type of research that directly attempts to influence a particular variable‚ and it is the only type that‚ when used properly‚ can really test hypotheses about cause-and-effect relationships. Experimental designs are some of the strongest available for educational researchers to use in determining cause and effect. Essential Characteristics of Experimental Research * Experiments differ from other

Free Fall Rachel Shea Physics 131 Lab‚ QL Hasbrouck 210 Sept. 21‚ 2014 Abstract This experiment measures the study of motion by observing the force of gravity acting solely upon an object‚ and also measures reaction time. If an object is in free fall‚ the only force acting upon it is gravity. The object used in this experiment was a golf ball that provided some acceleration when dropped. A sensor positioned underneath a table recorded the golf ball’s pattern of motion‚ when dropped. The main
