1.

Start writting the report by identify the

manipulated and responding variable.
2. Inference : Cause and effect (of the
manipulated and responding variable)
3. Hypothesis : ( manipulated variable )
Increase / Decrease, then ( responding
variable ) increase / decrease
4. Aim : To investigate the relationship
between ( manipulated variable) and
(responding variable).

5. Apparatus : Dont Forget meter rule,

stop watch etc

6. Procedure : Must mention manipulated

quantity,must mention method of
measuring responding variable.
7. Data must have at least 5 set.
8. Tabulate data and analyse data : must
include UNITS.
UNITS

Diagram 4.1 shows Jason taking a shower on a very cold morning.

After the water heater is switched on for a while, he still feels cold.
Diagram 4.2 shows that Jason no longer feels cold after the
temperature control knob
on the heater is turned.
