Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can collect data to test the effectiveness of different lubricants, taking steps to ensure a fair test.

Show transcript
Lubricants are substances added between two surfaces to reduce the friction between them. In a fair test, only the variable we are testing is changed. In a fair test, everything we are not testing is kept the same for every measurement. Repeat measurements help check for anomalous results. A mean combines repeat measurements into a single result.
