Bell Ringer
Two students each design their own investigation to determine whether
resting or exercising beforehand allows a person to squeeze a
clothespin more times over a certain period of time.
Student A squeezes the clothespin as many times as he can as he is
sitting quietly for two minutes. In a second trial he runs in place for
two minutes and then squeezes the clothespin as many times as
possible.
Student B uses the same procedure as student A. She also asks that
the other 25 students in her class carry out the same procedure and
she records their data. She then calculates the average number of
times that the clothespin had been squeezed without exercise and with
exercise before.
a. State one reason why student Bs investigation will give more
reliable results than student As.
b. Student B states that exercising before the second trial will always
have the same effect on this type of muscular activity. Explain why
the statement made by student B could be questioned.
