A
researcher is studying the relationship between speed of cycling and
the presence of people. Formulate a relevant hypothesis and identify
the independent and dependent variables.

Relationship
between the speed of cycling and the presence of people
Hypothesis
− As the speed of cycling increases people tend to move
away fast.
Field
experiment − Two market places
A boy is
asked to ride a bicycle with different speedsin the market.
Market
1 − It is observed that when the boy passes through the
market street with high speed on the bicycle, people surrounding him
will get away quickly in order to protect themselves from getting hit
by the cycle.
Market
2 − It is observed that when the boy passes through the
market street with normal speed on the bicycle people around him will
get away normally and slowly to give him the way as compared to the
people of market 1.
Conclusion
− When the speed of the cycle is high people move away from
it quickly and when the speed of cycle is normal people will move
away slowly in comparison.
Revision
of research conclusion − The conclusion has matched the
hypothesis. Therefore, the hypothesis is correct.
Independent
variable − Speed of cycle
Dependent
variable − Movement of people
