After conducting the trials for each beaker and each bag my hypothesis of each of the trials were correct. Every outcome I predicted occurred to each beaker and each bag. Beakers 1 and 2 decreased in mass while beaker 3 stayed constant. Beaker 4 actually increased in mass as well. Bags 1 and 2 increased in mass while bag 3 stayed the same. Bag 4 resulted in a decrease in mass. The results I got from this experiment do support what I predicted before the trials. Above you can see a specimen of an

After distributing the Stroop Task‚ the following results were discovered: the mean for the musicians was 1178.7070 milliseconds and the total mean for the athletes was 1235.188 milliseconds. Our results was the following‚ t(18)=0.587; p=0.567. The results as demonstrated can clearly state that there was not a significance within the .05 alpha level. Therefore‚ the null hypothesis had to be retained. Our conclusion of the Stroop Task was that the musicians did not show a faster (lower) time in comparison

and Steel structure? And for what purposes is it better to use concrete or steel structures? Concrete is the second most used material for construction after water in the world. Concrete is widely used in today construction industry because of its durability and compatibility. It can be mounded in any shape which makes it a very useful. In addition to the unique aesthetics achieved with concrete construction. Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any construction material. steel used

1. Introduction The Jominy end-quench test is a technique that has the ability to harden the steel by quenching. It is an essential feature of materials that determine the material’s selection for particular applications. The different types of steels and alloys that are used for hardening in an industry are done by this test and considering that this test is a standardised experiment [1]. 1.1 Aim The specimens that are used in this test are normalized in accordance with the standards. The purpose

ABC and TOC approaches is to come up with a fourth method of calculating profits that overcomes the shortcomings of the other three methods (Standard‚ ABC and TOC). Based on the ABC model (see description of this model in the next section of this report: Alternatives Rejected)‚ I calculated the unitary operating profit per product. This operating profit eliminates the major issue concerning the Standard Costing system: to average uneven resource consumption across products. The next step was to

of the nations largest steel companies decided to raise steel prices by 3.5 percent. This caught President John F Kennedy’s attention since he had repeatedly called for stable prices and wages as part of a program of national sacrifice during a period of economic distress. Kennedy called for a news conference in which he addressed certain things. He discussed and described how some steel companies raised prices due to their pursuit of private power and profits. If all steel companies took this action
