The Experiment

unknown and that you are making an assumption about what it is. A good observation should include your 5 senses; touch, smell, taste, hear and sight. Using all five of your senses will allow you to gain more information on what happened during the experiment. However, you must be careful when you’re using the senses smell and sight. Working with chemicals, liquids and objects can remind you of other things you may have encountered in the past. Don’t mix this up with what you are currently…

opinion, the use of the experimental method and survey are the best research methods for this study. Through the use of a pre-test and post-test experiment with a treatment and a control group, one would be able to show the effect of exposure to diet product ads models on college male students. However, one should take into account that the result of this experiment is probably not generalizable to all college male students since each individual may have different levels of neuroticism and may…

The overlying questions asked in this experiment were: does the dissolution of metal ions (Ni and Co) from NMC particles into solution change over time as well as to how small particles (glucose) affect this dissolution. From the wet chemistry Figure 3b, it can be seen that the concentration of Co appears to begin and remain between 7 and 10 μM, meaning that the majority of dissolution takes place immediately when the solution is constructed, then increases at a slow rate onwards. This does not…

My View on Statistics Statistics, the all encompassing, universal method of scientifically verifying and studying individuals and their characteristics. The applications of Statistics in any field be it finance, psychology, computer science, ecology, etc. never ends. “Big Data” as some would call it defines the scientific driven decisions of modern companies (The Age of Big Data, Lohr). Statistics uses any type of data to describe a characteristic of many individuals in a population. This…

Discussion The results from the experiment demonstrate that respiratory frequency was higher and increased faster as exercise intensity increased in caffeinated individuals. The correlation between the independent (intensity of work rate) and dependent (respiratory frequency) variables for both the caffeinated and non-caffeinated groups was fairly good (R2 > 0.35) so there is some evidence that caffeine causes an increase in respiratory frequency. Tidal volume and alveolar ventilation were…

Certainly, animals don't have the same abilities as humans. They can't talk, write books or drive cars, but neither can some humans. We don't ask how intelligent a person is before we decide whether to eat them or experiment on them. Regardless of intelligence, their life still has value to them. The Medical Research Modernization Committee, an American organization for doctors who are against animal testing, argue that AIDS research in America has been very unproductive…

For a large number of people, their experience with lab reports and scientific documents will be limited to a lab or two they are required to take in college for a general education credit. Skills learned in these classes will most likely be quickly forgotten and never used again. However, for those that work in a scientific field, writing lab reports is a fundamental skill that will be used time and time again. Lab reports can be used to express many different types of data and prove a variety…

even further understanding in research. While this is true Doke and Dhawale state in Alternatives to Animal Testing: A Review “Every year, millions of experimental animals are used all over the world” (224). The use of animals for research and lab experiments is not only an outdated method that harms animals, but is also unreliable and unneeded. Using animals for research and experimentation, while a lucrative business for many, has proven to be not “only unsafe, but also expensive,…

categories. Participants in the misattribution category were told the supplement had some side effects such as tenseness, anxiety, and increased heart rate. The second, control category was told the supplement had no side effects of any kind. In this experiment the independent variable being the categories, and the dependent variable being the results from the participants. The participants were then given a green colored drink to ingest. Immediately after, they were given the Spielberger 20…

determine. The other approach is inverse calibration method in which macro parameters are measured and by simulating the same application using DEM, the micro parameters are calibrated to obtain closest results to the measured macro parameters in the experiment (Marigo and Stitt, 2015). Using second approach may cause the micro parameters to lose their physical meaning. Where in the first approach the exact shape and size presentation of the particles are required for simulation to get accurate…
