What makes a good hypothesis?
It must be in a form of a question.
A theory that has been tried and tested from a fieldwork.
Must have one independent variable and one dependent variable.
A prediction that is measurable.
Identify the independent variable (a) and the dependent variable (b) from the hypothesis below:
The size of beach sediments decreases with the distance from the shoreline.
(a) size of beach sediments (b) distance from shoreline
(a) distance from shoreline (b) size of beach sediments
(a) amount of beach sediments (b) distance from shoreline
(a) distance from shoreline (b) amount of beach sediments
Based on this guiding question, "Do waves affect the beach sediments deposited on ECP beach?", which is the best hypothesis?
Waves affect beach sediments deposited.
The stronger the wave, the coarser the beach sediments.
The constructive nature of the waves on ECP beach, resulted in finer beach sediments found on ECP beach.
The higher the frequency of wave, the faster the rate of erosion.
