1.5 SCIENCETIFIC INVESTIGATION

Steps Explanation

1Making

observation

Gather all available information about the object orphenomenon to be studied.Using the five senses, sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell.

2Drawing

inferencesA conclusion from an observation or phenomena using informationthat already exist.

3

Identifying

and controllingvariables

Variables are factors or physical quantities which change inthe course of a scientific investigation.

There are three variables :i. Manipulated variables physical quantity which changes

according to the aim of the experiment.ii. Responding variables physicals quantity which is the

result of the changed by manipulated variable.iii. Fixed variables physicals quantities which are kept

constant during the experiment.

4 Formulating ahypothesis

5Conducting

experiments

Random error

carelessness in making the measurement.

parallex error , incorrect positioning of the eye when taking the readings.

sudden change of ambient factors such as temperature or air circulation.

Readings are close to the actual value but they are not consistent.

Can be minimized by consistently repeating the measurement at different places in

an identical manner.

Statement of relationship between the manipulated variable andthe responding variable those we would expect.

Hypothesis can either be true or false.

i. Conduct an experiment includes the compilation andinterpretation of data.

ii. Making a conclusion regarding the validity of the hypothesis.

The period of the oscillation depends on the length of the

pendulum.When the length of the pendulum increases, the period of theoscillation increases.

Investigate the relationship between length and period of asimple pendulum.

Manipulated variable : the length of the pendulum.Responding variable : PeriodFixed variable : the mass of the pendulum and thedisplacement.

1. Set up the apparatus as shown in the figure above.2. Measure the length of the pendulum,l = 60.0 cm by using a meter

rule.3. Give the pendulum bob a small displacement 300.Time of

10 oscillations is measured by using a stop watch.4. Repeat the timing for another 10 oscillations. Calculate the

average time.
