Purpose: To find the initial velocity of a marble leaving a ramp using time‚ range‚ and background information learned in class. Equipment: The equipment used in this experiment was a toy track and ramp‚ a small marble‚ multiple Physics textbooks‚ meter sticks‚ bright-colored cardstock‚ masking tape‚ sidewalk chalk‚ plastic bag and a cloth. Procedure: Our experimental values include the height that the marble would travel‚ y= 88.1 cm‚ and our ramp angle‚ θ= 44.0°. These independent variables

Is it normally acceptable to experiment on non-human animals to develop products and medicines that benefit human beings? New scientific research has cast grave doubt on the safety testing of hundreds of thousands of consumer products. Everyday products‚ from soft drinks to paints‚ contain numerous synthetic chemicals. Official assurances of the safety of these chemicals are based largely on animal experiments. But recent results from a consortium in America suggested such assurances may be worthless

Brenda Richardson Intro. to Psych. Chapter 6 Part 2 Loftus Experiment Elizabeth Loftus‚ a psychologist and expert on memory‚ has conducted much research on human memories‚ real and imagined‚ and how that may happen. Loftus‚ personally‚ has experienced the misinformation effect and eyewitness memory. Even though there are several experiments outlined‚ I chose the ’Lost in the Mall’ experiment as more fitting to the sex abuse testimony she gave. Participants‚ twenty-four of them‚

Section November 7‚ 2012 Abstract The effect of water and fertilizer on corn seedlings was examined. It was hypothesized before the experiment that enough water with sunlight and air should make the plants grow healthy. It has to do with photosynthesis. Fertilizer is also going to make the plants grow much faster; this is because of the nutrients in it. The experiment took about four to six weeks to complete; it took some days for the seed to germinate before planting. The corn was growing there were

Data can be obtained from observational studies‚ experiments‚ or surveys. This article is devoted mainly to controlled experiments.

The man is Charles Darwin. Charles was born in the year 1809 in Enlgand. His main contribution to science was the Theory of Evolution‚ widely referred to as Darwinism. He is also the author of a book‚ On the Origin of Species. Darwin trained to become a doctor‚ but did not seem to have an interest in medicine. He also was trained to be a country clergyman‚ but was unable to suppress his scientific interests. He then trained as an entomologist‚ collecting beetles. Charles’ voyage as a naturalist

3. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? The terms depolarization and action potential differ because are excitable cells that communicate by transmitting electrical impulses that are capable of producing rapid electrical signals and depolarization in the interior surface of the membrane which becomes less negative and the exterior surface becomes less positive. Additionally‚ when depolarization reaches a certain threshold‚ an action potential is initiated

Experiment 9 Thin Layer Chromatography Experiment: 9 Title: Thin Layer Chromatography Introduction: Chemical analysis is conducted on specific analytes (specific substance of interest in a mixture)‚ however it is often found that these analytes must be separated for the chemical analysis to conduct their analysis. Chromatography is a set up of laboratory a technique that is used to separate a chemical mixture. This technique is very useful as it allows us to follow the course of
