Discussion

When the mass of the sphere increases the distance of the spheres movement decreases. The greater the mass of an object, the greater the inertia. The greater the mass the more the object tends to remain at rest and resist a change in motion. C4 P1 Hypothesis is accepted. C4 P2

Conclusion

The greater the mass of an object the greater the inertia produced C4 P3

SAMPLE EVIDENCE 11 Topic Aim Hypothesis : Proprioceptor : To observe the role of proprioceptors in arrange cans in the correct C1P1 order without looking :. Proprioceptors helps us to arrange cans in the correct order C1P2 without looking : manipulated variable : Number of students C1P3 responding variable : Ability to arrange cans in the correct order fixed variable : Mass of cans
Note: All variables must be correct

Variables

Apparatus Procedures :

sand, five copper can of equal size

C1P4

1. This activity must be done in groups 2. All the five cans must be filled with sand of different weights for example: Can Weight of sand One 50 g Two 100 g Three 150 g Four 200 g Five 250 g

3. One of my friend is asked to close his eyes 4. His eyes are covered with a piece of cloth. 5. The five cans are arranged randomly in front of my friend whose eyes have been covered. 6. He is asked to pick up the cans one by one and arrange the cans according to their weight either in descending and ascending order. 7. Role among group members are exchanged and the step above are repeated. C1P5 8. The observations are recorded in the table. Result C3P1 Number of Student Ability to arrange in the correct order (Yes /No) Yes C3P2 Yes Yes Yes Yes Discussion : Proprioceptors are receptor in our body that sense the position of our C3P3

body that sense the position of our body We can arrange can without looking because our body has proprioceptors Proprioceptors are important because the enable us to be concious of the position and the posture of our body. The receptor in the muscle related to proprioceptore is called stretch receptor. The other function of proprioceptors also enables us to detect the C4P1 movement of our body without looking. Hypothesis is accepted Conclusion : C4P2

Proprioceptors are receptor that enable us to be concious about the movement of our body parts as well as its functions without using our eyesight C4P3

CONSTRUCT II : Carrying out the experiment Performance Indicator( PI) Able to carry out the experiment according to the planning 1.
