Stanley Milgram: ’electric shock’ experiments (1963) - also showed the power of the situation in influencing behaviour. 65% of people could be easily induced into giving a stranger an electric shock of 450V (enough to kill someone). 100% of people could be influenced into giving a 275V shock.

I don’t think this experiment should be replicated today. The reason being is that the Generation we have today has a different mindset and that the experiment is unethical in my view. In 1961‚ Milgram was able to make the participants agree with the experiment. These results led to people trying out these trails because the participants knew the shock would be painful but not dangerous. With that being said‚ it shows you the mindset of the people during that time. People were laid back and were

Part I - Illumination Experiments (1924-27) These experiments were performed to find out the effect of different levels of illumination (lighting) on productivity of labour. The brightness of the light was increased and decreased to find out the effect on the productivity of the test group. Surprisingly‚ the productivity increased even when the level of illumination was decreased. It was concluded that factors other than light were also important.

The procedure of the first lab was to place a solid piece of magnesium metal in the bottom of the smallest tube. Place this test tube in the test tube holder. Using tongs pick up the large test tube and have it turned upside down‚ ready

The hypothesis was rejected in this experiment‚ based on the results. The results were much different than hypothesized before the experiment. It was hypothesized that the lower concentrations of CLR‚ Jar E and Jar D‚ would be healthier and more likely to reproduce than the higher concentrations of CLR‚ Jar B and C. However‚ as shown in the actual results‚ Jar E and D with the lower concentrations of CLR died quicker than Jar B and C. The CLR and water solutions acted as a fertilizer‚ so the greater

Heat in physics is defined as energy in transit. It is symbolized with the alphabet Q. (Strong‚ Martin C. The Great Alternative and Indie Discography of Heat) It is mostly connected with different movements of atoms‚ molecules and other particles. These particles either consist of particles that are either hot or cold. High temperature bodies‚ are often caused due to the high heat transfer‚ which is created by chemical reactions‚ nuclear reactions‚ electromagnetic dissipation‚ or mechanical dissipation
