Purpose The reason for this experiment is to prove that objects of different masses‚ when dropped from the same height‚ fall at the same velocity. Apparatus - 2 Marbles of different mass‚ one steel and one nylon - Dropping Mechanism with a lever to hold the marble and pull for drop - Bee Spi (measures velocity in kilometers per hour.) - Box to catch the marble on the way down Procedure The dropping mechanism was set up‚ with the BeeSpi attached to it at 26.5” from the lever that drops

“It is one thing to mortify curiosity‚ another to conquer it… (page 37)”. In Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde‚ the main purpose of Jekyll’s experiments are to liberate himself‚ or in other words‚ to free himself from the evil part within him. He succeeds in many ways‚ which include the outcome of Jekyll taking the potion he created‚ and successfully releases his evil side through Mr. Hyde. He fails in many ways as well‚ including Hyde losing control and Jekyll

Title: An investigation into the impact of group pressure on an individual’s estimate of the amount of beads in a pot (ginger granules in a jar). IV = Group/Individual DV = Individual beads estimate Abstract This experiment investigated the impact of group pressure on the individual. The hypothesis is that group pressure does indeed impact on the individual and in this case the individual’s estimate of the number of ginger granules in a jar. Participants were asked to make a judgement of

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. Part II - Relay Assembly Test Room Study (1927-1929)

Breaching Experiment In the eye contact experiment I decided to do this in a room with about six of my friends while watching the All Star game‚ I used my Girlfriend. I waited until everyone was focused on the game and then begin to stare at her from across the room‚ at first her reaction was to wave at me and smile then she started to look around to see if I was starring at someone else‚ then she told her best friend "I don’t know what’s his problem‚ he is being too weird." I extended my eye contact

Experiment 4A – Counting Atoms in a Chemical Reaction Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to create an experiment where zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid in order to find out the number of moles and atoms of zinc reacted. This can be accomplished by weighing the sample before and after the reaction with hydrochloric acid. Data: Material Mass in grams (g) Initial mass of dry beaker 49.37 Initial mass of dry beaker + zinc 51.03 Initial mass of zinc 1.66 Final mass

In order to find the connection between the level of education and income‚ research methods need to established. To find the relationship between the two‚ I would use the methods of survey and experiments. Survey method allows a collection of a specific population and from that populations a sample population can be extracted to represent the whole. Given a random survey preformed at a local festival would give the general population a chance to participate since all sorts of people attend community
