OBSERVATION what you see in the picture, graph or table INFERENCE early conclusion - explanation for your observation - why the incident took place

AIM - To investigate the relationship between what is changed and what is measured TREND / PATTERN - Increasing, decreasing, similar and no changes
R.V R.V R.V

RELATIONSHIP = HYPOTHESIS - Relationship between the variables CONCLUSION - Can be the same as hypothesis - Can choose the highest or lowest point (graph/table) PREDICTION - In the form of numbers or sentences - Must be followed with the unit. Example: cm, kg .

The distance traveled by each book is shown above.

Book J K Distance Travelled (cm) 10 30

(a) What is kept the same (constant variable) in this investigation? (b) State one reason (inference) about the distance travelled by K. (c) Write one observation to support the reason (inference) in (b)

a) The size of the book or the weight of the book. b) Book K has less friction. c) It has pencils which make it move faster.

SECTION B: 3 Types of Variables: Whats changed = Manipulated variable (M.V) = Things which are changed at the beginning of the experiment Whats measured = whats observed = Responding Variable (R.V) - The result of the experiment, or things which change by itself Whats kept the same = Constant Variable (C.V) = things which are same in the experiment
Amount of water (MV) Temperature of water (RV) 10ml 70C 20ml 80C 30ml 90C 40ml 100C
