Individual Project Unit 2 Experiments In this individual project we were asked to conduct three experiments. The three experiments I chose to conduct were Experiment 1‚ Experiment 2‚ and Experiment 4. I have documented my findings for the experiments that were done. In Experiment 1‚ I was to rub my index finger gently over a piece of very coarse sandpaper for a few times. Then‚ I was to rate its coarseness on a scale from 1 (very soft) to 7 (very coarse)

In the eye opening documentary‚ The Human Experiment‚ directed by Don Hardy and Dana Nachman‚ the many health dangers of thousands of harmful chemicals in everyday products are exposed. The film explores the lives of people who have been affected by the ubiquitous chemicals found in our food and our homes. The film addresses the battle against powerful industries that are determined to keep consumers in the dark about the dangers of many of their products. The fight against dangerously lethal chemicals

The Milgram experiment The Milgram experiment came about by a Yale University psychologist by the name of Stanley Milgram. The experiment was to test how well the study participants were and the willingness of study participants to obey an authority figure who instructed them to perform acts that conflicted with what they thought was right. He concluded people obey either out of fear or out of a desire to appear cooperative even when acting against their own better judgment and desires. Stanley

loss from the hot water from combining it with the cold water. As discussed in a page titled Heat Capacity2‚ the heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat it takes to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree (in this case C). In the experiment performed in lab‚ the heat capacity of the calorimeters was calculated by subtracting the heat gain from the heat loss and then dividing that by the difference in the temperatures between cold water and the combination of the hot and cold water

The main focus of this experiment was to find the relationship between temperature and the enzyme activity of amylase. This was achieved by attaining amylase enzyme‚ starch solution and potassium iodide (determines if enzymes hydrolyses the starch solution)‚ water bath and a hot plate. The temperatures used for this experiment were room temperature‚ 37oC‚ 60oC‚ 80oC‚ and 90oC. The hypothesis developed was that as the temperature increased‚ so will enzyme activity. Therefore‚ the ability of the

The Afterlife Investigations: The Scole Experiment “Best evidence of life after death ever.” This is what this documentary film is pointing out. Is there really a life after death? Well this film makes me believe more that there is indeed a life after death. However‚ how can scientific evidence explain life after death? Now this film showed me how. The ninety-minute documentary film is about the Scole Experiment‚ which is a five-year investigation into life after death. It is conducted by

Individuals may change their behavior due to the attention they are receiving from researchers rather than because of any manipulation of independent variables. The Hawthorne experiments took place from 1927 to 1933 in the Hawthorne plant of Western Electric. They wanted to test scientific management. The experiments were held by Elton Mayo‚ and a few of his colleagues. The experiments began as a series of productivity studies from

bubbles. So that’s why we call it a lava lamp inside of bottle. The conclusion is that you can make lava lamp household items if you use Alka-Seltzer‚ water‚ food coloring‚ and vegetable oil. So if you want to try just do what we did. That is our experiment. Why this happened because the Alka-seltzer had a chemical reaction beacuse of some powder on the outside of the alka-seltzer so the bubbles carried the food coloring up to the top of the bottle
