The effects of exercising before squeezing a clothespin in a human
Hypothesis: if a person exercises before he/she squeezes a clothespin they will be able to squeeze or press it faster and longer.
Methods and materials:
- 4 people
- 2 exercise for 2 minutes
- 1 clothes pin a person
- Squeeze clothespin for 1 minute
Procedure
1: two people will jog in place for 1 minute and then squeeze a clothespin for 1 minute
2: record the number of squeezes for each person.
3: repeat steps 1,2,3 two more times then record the data.
4: person 3 and 4 will rest for 1 minute at the same time 1 and 2 are jogging then they will squeeze the clothespin for a minute.
5: then record the data for the trial.
6: then repeat 4 and 5 two more times.
7: then find the average number of squeezes for each person.
The dependant variable is the number of times you squeeze a clothespin.
The independent variable is what you do before squeezing a clothespin.
Person # Trial 1 squeezes a minute Trial 2 squeezes a minute Trial 3 squeezes a minute Average squeezes a minute
1 exercised 164 154 165 161.0
2 exercised 165 166 141 157.3
3 unexercised 200 198 183 193.6
4 unexercised 192 192 186 190.0
Discussion and conclusion:
The effects of exercising before squeezing a clothespin in a human. My hypothesis was that by exercising before squeezing a clothespin would allow you to squeeze it faster and longer. My hypothesis was not correct the group in witch rested hade a higher squeezing rate compared to the exercising. The conclusion is that resting before squeezing a clothespin is better than exercising before squeezing the clothespin.
