Physics Lab Report Guide

This physics lab report outlines the steps taken to investigate how changing an independent variable affects a dependent variable. The introduction states the research question and hypothesis about how the independent variable of x will change the dependent variable of y. The exploration section identifies the key variables, with the independent variable being changed and the dependent variable being measured. Controlled variables that could also impact the results are listed. Data on the independent and dependent variables is collected and processed in tables and graphs in the analysis section. The conclusion compares the results to the initial hypothesis and accepted values. Areas for improving the lab design are discussed in the evaluation.
