Introduction The guiding question for this lab was what is the best height that will give the marble the potential energy to hit the target cup. Energy is the ability to do work. Potential energy is the energy of position and kinetic energy is the energy of motion. In order for the ramp to be successful‚ the ramp had to have the right amount of potential and kinetic energy. If you have too much potential energy than the marble would have too much kinetic energy and the marble would not land inside

many listening barriers in communication. Specifically‚ this paper focuses on a study done about the frequent listening barriers and how they can affect listening effectiveness. In addition‚ It discuses the many individual listening barriers. It explores six major listening factors that come from the multiple listening barriers. The main study this paper revolves around is conducted by Steven Golen (1990)‚ conducted with university students and their opinions of frequent barriers to effective listening

ACHIEVEMENTS OF AGRIPPINA THE YOUNGER Agrippina’s powerful family lineage allowed her to excel beyond the role of women in Roman society and become successful in the terms of wealth and power. Agrippina’s achievements include the marrying Claudius‚ successfully removing others‚ ascension of Nero‚ and having honors and powers given beyond other women of Rome. It is difficult to assess the extent of Agrippina’s achievements because of the gender bias that derives from the Ancient sources Dio Cassius

After the completion of Seven Habits Profile I reflected on the profile and my potential leadership practices. Some of the categories that I scored outstanding in did not surprise me as some mirror my values and what is important to me. Category 3 discusses being proactive and choosing to live believing that one is primarily in control of their own life. Having a proactive approach in the workplace is important for success because it allows one to act in advance of future events. Being reactive as

BIOL 3810-504 Compound Action Potentials Date Performed: 15FEB2011 Date Due: 01MAR2011 Introduction Neurons are the cells that receive and transmit electrical signals (University of North Texas‚ 2010). The ability of the neuron to conduct these impulses is because of an electrochemical voltage across the plasma membrane of that neuron. An action potential is an all or nothing response to a stimulus along a single axon. A compound action potential is a graded response that results from

The achievement gap in education has been the subject of discussion for many years due to the disparity among groups of students in relation to language ability‚ race and ethnicity‚ and socioeconomic status (SES). Experts offer many possible explanations for the gap‚ including the assertion that an achievement gap is inevitable‚ and others placing blame on inadequate education systems that are ill equipped to meet the needs of all of its students. Others still may place an emphasis on environmental

Resting membrane potentials Definition: Large nerve fibers when not transmitting nerve signals is about 90 millivolt. That is‚ the potential inside the fiber is 90 millivolts more negative than the potential in the extracellular fluid on the outside of the fiber. The Na+-k+ pump also causes large concentration gradients for sodium and potassium across the resting nerve membrane. These gradients are the following: Sodium ( outside): 142 mEq/L Sodium ( inside): 14 mEq/L Potassium ( outside):

One topic that came to mind while researching this paper was the Great Barrier Reef‚ which I had wanted to research for my presentation‚ but information was more abundant for the topic I did choose. The size of the reef and its tourist potential are great in their respective ways. The reef is the largest of its kind extending 2300 km along the North East Coast of Australia from Cape York to the northern part of South Queensland. Most may believe that the reef alone is one large organism‚ but
