INSTRUCTION:
1. Prepare a report with the procedures for an Investigative Scientific Experiment from the
stimulus shown in the diagram.
2. Carry out the experiment in the lab to collect and record the data then interpret the
data and make a conclusion.
3. Write a task report
STIMULUS:
Amin is pumping air into his bicycles tyre. After a few minutes, he finds that hes
getting difficulty to push the piston downward.
APPARATUS : Glass syringe, a short rubber tube and Bourdon gauge
PROCEDURE :
DISCUSSION:
1. Determine the gradient of the graph of pressure, P against 1/V .
2. Based on your graph, determine the pressure, P when the volume, V is 75 cm3.
3. The above experiment can be explained by a Boyles law. State Boyles law.

Discussion :
CIV P4 1. Gradient of the graph = .. Nm-2 cm3.
CIV P5 2. when the volume, V is 75 cm3, 1/V = P = .. Nm-2
CIV P7 Precaution; 1. The rubber tube was fixed tightly to prevent leakage.
2. When taking the readings of volume and pressure,position the eye
perpendicularly to avoid parallax error.
