Improvements that could be done to a temperature experiment:
- Same initial temperature
- Same volume of water
- Same shape of beaker
- Beakers of same surface
- Same room temperature
- Same time intervals
- Same surface area (unless given different containers)
Heat loss can be reduced by the insulation of a beaker , and by covering the beaker with a lid .
Improvements made to experiments about heating effect and insulation:
- Covering the container with a lid
- Repeats and Average
- Recording maximum temperature
- Adding insulation
- Keeping constant rmoom temperature
- Avoiding heat loss
Minimizing heating effect of a current
- Decreasing current
- Increasing voltage
- Adding a lamp
- Increasing resistance of a resistor
Variables in a spring extension experiment: (Blue- Constant)
- Number of coils
- Diameter of spring
- Selection of loads
- Mass of spring
- Length of wire
- Range of loads
Improvement made to calculating circumference by string method:
- Avoid parallax error
- Repeat and Avergae
- Use thinner …
- Alternative to Practical
