Experimental Research and The Key Components of A Successful Experiment Ehsan Jamil Seneca College Laura Cavanagh February 4‚ 2013 Abstract This paper explores the experimental research method and specifically the experiment conducted by Professor Smith‚ a Psychology professor who has a hypothesis that Vitamin E improves memory‚ to determine the flaws in her experiment. In the process‚ the paper also clearly explains the various key factors which determine the outcome and accuracy

What affect does fertilizer have on the rate of growth in plants over a certain period of time? When tested‚ there is no affect on the growth of plants from a change of an environmental factor‚ such as an exposure to fertilizer. By changing the independent variable (whether or not the plant was planted with fertilizer)‚ you are testing to see how the dependent variable would change (the growth of plants). In order to assure that there is no experimental error‚ a control must be kept to produce the

volume of cream consumed per capita in the US and the rate of drowning deaths in the U.S.” In my experiment I will use two (2) groups consisting of twenty (20) individuals from ages fifteen (15) to thirty-five (35) years-old. Both groups will have equivalent numbers of males and females and they will all have the basic knowledge of swimming. Group one‚ the experimental group will have ten (10) males and ten(10) females and group two‚ the control group will also have the same number of males and

Volume of an irregular solid. The procedure in getting the Volume of a regular solid is different from an irregular solid. We use the Water Displacement method to get the Volume of an irregular solid whereas in a regular solid‚ we only multiply the length‚ width‚ and thickness of the solid. Percentage Error is the absolute value of the difference of the Theoretical value and Experimental value all over the Theoretical Value multiplied to 100. It is used to compare the results obtained to the known

In their place I put the asking of questions.” Just having performed John Cage’s Musicircus‚ I found it only fitting to relate my own piece to the excerpt above. What questions did I have prior to developing the piece? I was curious about the sounds that could be created if I were to amplify the situation of shaving my facial hair. How did these
