Lacsap’s Fractions IB Math SL SL Type 1 December 11‚ 2012 Lacsap’s Fractions: Lacsap is Pascal backwards and the way that Lacsap’s fractions are presented is fairly similar to Pascal’s triangle. Thus‚ various aspects of Pascal’s triangle can be applied in Lacsap’s fraction. To determine the numerators: To determine the numerator (n)‚ consider it in relation to the number of the row (r) that it is a part of. Consider the five rows below: Row 1

Design IA Research Question How Does Increasing the Intensity of Exercise Affect Respiratory Rate? Hypothesis My experiment will involve sprinting which is a very demanding and fatiguing sport. In order to increase the intensity of it‚ I will be increasing the weight the subject has to carry as he sprints. My hypothesis is that as you increase the weight‚ the respiratory rate will also increase. At rest‚ the average breathing rate for adults is 12-24 breaths per minute and for new born babies

Plan of Investigation While watching National Hockey League (NHL) games‚ I often heard the play-by-play announcer mention at the start of the third and final period how it would be tough for a team to come back from a one goal deficit. This led me to wonder just how difficult it was mathematically‚ and how much previous periods affected the final one. In this project‚ I will investigate whether the scores at the end of the first period affect the final score of NHL games. I will gather the scores

GPS AND TRIANGULATION GPS calculation works on the principle of the receiver (example the handheld GPS receiver on car or mobile) calculating the distance of that receiver from a set of known points. 1) The receiver needs to receive a straight line signal (also called line of sight) from the known point without reflection. The best things that can do that are satellites overhead. 2) To enable that‚ the US department of defence has setup 24 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites. They are called the
