Experiments: Doctors‚ Experiments‚ and Results Melissa Anjeanette Edwards POLYTECH High School of Kent County‚ Woodside‚ Delaware Abstract During World War II experiments were done on the prisoners of war in Nazi Germany. Doctors for these camps came in all shapes and sizes including former S.S. Troops‚ Women‚ and a variety of prisoner doctors. The experiments differed as much as the doctors themselves; however they stayed the same in one factor‚ medical curiosity become killing in atrocious

Design of a Psychological Experiment Psyc 100 (0110-0129) Fall‚ 1996 Dr. Sternheim Report #1 (10 points) Problem: Suppose you are a psychologist who is interested in the effects of caffeine on the eye-hand coordination of students enrolled at UMCP. Design an experiment to test the hypothesis that caffeine enhances a student’s ability to hit a baseball. Describe your experiment by answering the following questions: 1) What are the independent and dependent variables? The independent variable

Task 3: Toilet Paper Absorbency Project Design Plan Problem Statement: Absorbency of toilet paper is found in many aspects when it comes to choosing the right toilet paper. When choosing toilet paper people base their decisions on many factors. Those factors include price‚ name brand‚ availability‚ quantity for the price‚ and even media deliverance (i.e. commercials) of toilet paper. Although these factors are of key importance‚ what about the absorbency of toilet paper? This experiment is conducted

Abstract: This experiment was completed with the intention of testing if two specific plants were allelopathic. Allelopathicity is defined as “They are allelon which means "of each other"‚ and pathos which means "to suffer". Allelopathy refers to the chemical inhibition of one species by another. The "inhibitory" chemical is released into the environment where it affects the development and growth of neighboring plants.” (Ref 1) Introduction: Have you ever wondered why certain plants do

so deeply ingrained and powerful that it cancels out a person’s ability to behave morally‚ ethically‚ or even sympathetically. In 1963 Milgram carried out an experiment. He hypothesized that individuals who would never intentionally cause someone physical harm would do so if ordered by a powerful authority figure. To carry out the experiment‚ Milgram designed a shock generator- a large electronic device with 30 switches labeled with voltage levels from 30 volts increasing at 15-volt intervals to

Hydrogen is recognized as the simplest and lightest chemical element in the periodic table; even though it is identified as one of the top elements in abundance in the world (consisting of 0.9 percent of the total mass on earth)‚ it is considered to be the most abundant element in the entire universe. It is a gaseous element with the atomic symbol being H. It is usually categorized under the first group of the periodic table known as the alkali metals. It contains only one electron that revolves

This part of the experiment yielded an exothermic reaction. The purpose was to calculate the specific heat capacity and molar mass of the zinc metal. The specific heat capacity was found to be 0.197 J/g °C with a percent error of -49.5%. The molar mass was found to be 127 g/mol with a percent error of 94.2%. Possible sources of error inherent to this segment of the experiment were the fact that when the temperature of the solution was being measured

The unknown sample underwent five different chemical analysis namely Dichromate test‚ Tollen’s test‚ Lucas test‚ DNPH test‚ and Iodoform test. Each test will determine if the unknown sample will have the same reaction as

Helicopter Experiment Prediction: As the mass on the helicopter’s copters increases‚ the speed taken for the rotors to spin down faster‚ this is because there will be more downward pull from gravity‚ as the terminal velocity for a paper helicopter is low. Variables: Independent variable will be the mass that we change throughout the experiment. The dependant variable will be the time that we measure for the helicopter to reach the floor. Finally the controlled variables include‚ the helicopter
