Bouncy Ball Experiment Aim: The aim of this experiment is to investigate the efficiency of a bouncing ball‚ and the factors which affect its efficiency. Prediction I predict that the higher I drop the ball from the higher it will rebound up‚ because it will have more gravitational potential energy the higher dropped from. As it is dropped the ball will have kinetic energy‚ and then when it hits the ground changes to heat and sound energy‚ and kinetic as it rebounds back up. The higher up

Experiment 1 n1 sinθ1 = n2 sinθ2 1 sin30° = n2 sin19.5° ∴n2 =1.497 (Refractive Index) Experiment 1 check 1.497 sin 19.5 = 1.5 sin19.5° 0.4997 ≈ 0.5 Experiment 2 n1 sinθ1 = n2 sinθ2 1 sin60° = n2 sin35°

After watching the Milgram experiment and the abuse that occur in Abu Ghraib prison. It is clear that leadership roles and authority position can both influence people to do thing that are harmful and bad to others. Leadership focuses on gaining people to follow them and is more based on free will. While authority has the power to tell people what to do. In the Milgram experiment many people back up why they continue administering shocks by stating‚ “Because an authority figure was telling them

given crop? In our experiment‚ we examine the effects of water on corn. Corn is a vital crop to North America‚ and there is a wide draw to maximizing crop yields. To determine the effects of different amounts of water‚ we tested plants with various watering times according to a schedule. All of the plants experienced all of the same conditions‚ except for the quantities of water

PLAN OF INVESTIGATION Fundamental Science Salt water egg experiment Result Some objects float on top of the ocean‚ and other objects sink to the bottom. Why? In this salt water egg experiment we can find a solution for this question. It was noted that to make the egg float salt is needed to dissolve into fresh water. When the egg was lowered into the fresh water container it started to sink. But when salt was added to the container the egg started to float. Adding salt

The Stanford Prison Experiment‚ conducted over 40 years ago‚ brought these ethical issues into the limelight and remains one of the most controversial studies in the history of studying human behavior. This paper aims to define ethics‚ describe risk/benefit ratio‚ provide a brief background on the Stanford Prison Experiment‚ and evaluate the impact it has had on psychological research. The Stanford Prison Experiment The Stanford Prison Experiment probably tops a lot of lists when

Eating Chocolate Helps Students Become Happier Henry Vuong Dennis Lin Stella Zhang Introduction: Our experiment is based on a former experiment described in the article A Scientific Experiment‚ In Search of Chocolate Happiness. It was an experiment in a mall Cafe called Butler Chocolate‚ with a purpose of finding a way to help shoppers become happier. By giving each customer a piece of Butler ’s chocolate‚ the Cafe hoped to increase the number of smiling faces at the mall. Early findings

In the "Chinese Room Experiment‚" John R. Searle argues against the claim of computers being actual thinking things. Searle argues that even though computers can pass the Turing test does not mean that they could think. With the help of the "Chinese Room Experiment‚" he wanted to establish that computer do not think since human beings influence them. I will explain the reasons for how John Searle’s arguments are against the claim that computers are an actual thinking thing. I’ll first talk about

watched the Milgram experiment during the first lecture. The result of the experiment was very shocking to me – over half of the subjects would keep shocking the ‘learners’ until the end just because the experimenters required them to do so‚ even though the learners cried desperately for help. I think this experiment has fully revealed the destructive side of authority‚ which can turn a mature and conscientious adult into a tool for punishment or even killing. The experiment reminds me of the painful
