Key Terms

-Scientific Hypothesis: A specific and testable prediction about the results of an experiment.

-Variable: An element, feature, or factor that can vary or change (i.e. boat width, foot length, etc.)

-Dependent Variable: A variable whose ability to change depends on another variable and is measured.

-Independent Variable: A value not dependent on another value but directly changed by an experimenter.

-Control Variable: A variable that is kept the same throughout an experiment to avoid affecting the results.

*Scientific experiments can have many control variables but only one variable can be directly changed (independent)

and for simplicity we will allow only one measured variable (dependent). All other variables should be controlled.

Identify a scientific hypothesis that can be tested by the experiment below.
Experiment: Students drop a ball from different heights and record the falling time.

Scientific hypothesis: If the weight of the ball increases then the falling time will decrease.

Scientific hypothesis: If the drop height of the ball increases then the falling time will increase.

Scientific hypothesis: If the temperature of the oven air increases then the baking time for the cake will decrease.

Experiment: A study was done to find if different tire treads affect the braking distance of a car.

Scientific hypothesis: If the weight of the car increases then the braking time will increase.

Scientific hypothesis: If the length of the car decreases then the braking time will decrease.

Scientific hypothesis: If the tire treads of the car become smoother then the braking time will increase.
