Mon, Mar 1, 2027 · Week 7 · Human Anatomy & Physiology (Human Body Systems)
Today's goal: Collect EMG or range-of-motion data and record results in a data table.
What a finished product looks like
This is a model of the work you should turn in today. Use it to check your own: match the structure and the level of detail, do not copy it. Your data and wording should be your own.
Setup note: zeroed the goniometer baseline at 0 degrees before the first trial.
Raw data (grip-angle trials, fictional Sample 1):
- Trial 1: 142 degrees, 0 s, steady, no fatigue.
- Trial 2: 140 degrees, 10 s, steady.
- Trial 3: 138 degrees, 20 s, slight tremor noted.
- Trial 4: 129 degrees, 30 s, noticeable drop, mild ache. <-- fatigue onset
- Trial 5: 121 degrees, 40 s, clear decline.
- Trial 6: 118 degrees, 50 s, plateau low.
Fatigue-onset trial: Trial 4, because that is where a consistent downward trend begins (not just one low value), and the participant first reported effort and tremor.
| Trial | Angle (degrees) | Time (s) | Observation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 142 | 0 | Steady |
| 2 | 140 | 10 | Steady |
| 3 | 138 | 20 | Slight tremor |
| 4 | 129 | 30 | Drop, fatigue onset |
| 5 | 121 | 40 | Clear decline |
Also due today: Submit your completed raw data table.
