1. If it is cold then the battery efficiency of an rc car will be reduced.
2. Dependent = temperature
Independent = the results of the battery efficency test.
3. The connection between my science fair project and eq is that being an electronic engineer requires you to test your product before actually using it in a full scale simulation. One way in being a successful engineer is making sure your product functions the way it is suppose to.
4. I will run the rc car on a 15 foot track outside and time how long it takes the rc car to complete it. I will perform this race 5 times ensuring the battery is at room temperature. I will thenrepeat this procedure for 10 different temperatures (hot and cold), graph the data, and determine whether efficiency is significantly increased by the change in the battery's temperature. From there, I will do research (using my physics textbook and online resources) to figure out why I obtained certain results.
