-Describing Motion Lab Agenda: -WarmUp -SciMeth of Love -Motion? -Describing Motion Lab Warm-Up How do you know something is in motion? Describe the difference between an independent and dependent variable. What are the parts of a good graph? Make sure to write out the question and answer them on your new Bell Ringer sheet!!

The Scientific Method and you How to get a date for Friday night with the Scientific Method

Step 1: State the problem. You cannot solve a problem until you know exactly what it is. My Problem is - "I need a date for Friday Night".

Step 2: Research the problem. What will it take to solve my problem? What do I know, and need to know, about my problem? To solve my problem, "I need someone to take out Friday Night". Who can I take? Examine the possibilities. Eliminate poor choices. Consider likely choices.

Step 3: Form a hypothesis. A possible solution to my problem. The simplest solution is often the best solution! "My date will be ( Name )".

Step 4: Test the hypothesis. Perform an experiment to see if your hypothesis works. "Ask ( Name ) for a date Friday Night".

Step 5: Draw conclusions from the data. Data are the results of an experiment. In its simplest form, there are only two possibilities: (1) If your hypothesis was correct, you now have a date for Friday. PROBLEM SOLVED!

(2) If your hypothesis was incorrect, the experiment failed. DON'T GIVE UP! DO MORE RESEARCH! - What was wrong with your original hypothesis? - Did you make a poor selection? - Was your experiment flawed? - Form another hypothesis based on additional research. - Test your new hypothesis.

Continue this process until the problem is solved!

Control: standard for comparison Constant: factor (s) that do NOT vary Variables: factors that DO change (2 types)

Independent: factor adjusted by experimenter (1 at a time) Dependent: factor whose value depends upon the value of the independent Ex. If I adjust the speed at which I drive, my time changes.

Analysis: Recording results of experiment; charts, graphs, etc. Conclusion: answering initial problem

What should a good graph have?
