Hypothesis

Hypothesis

My hypothesis is that NOS will work the best at giving energy to you in a sports game. I believe this to be true because NOS has a high caffeine content. I also believe that our home made energy drink will not give that much energy so it won’t work as well as NOS or any of the other drinks.

Planning my fair test

I would like to find out which energy drinks will give my brother the most energy in a football match.

The part I am going to change is the energy drinks.

 The energy drinks I will use are:

* V

*Mother

*NOS

* Monster

*Red bull (sugar free)

*Homemade energy drink (recipe below)

*Water

The parts I will keep the same are:

*The people who are running around the field

*The stop watch 

*The field

*Everyone will wear the same clothes and trainers each time they run

My way to test energy drinks

Equipment needed :

*5 different energy drinks (250mls per person)

*1 homemade energy drink (250mls per person)

*water (250mls per person)

*4 people

*good weather

* Bishops park field

*a stop watch

*same running shoes and clothes

 * Camera for photos

* Paper and pen for writing down results
