Voltage

1a- 4 domains of psychology that I find the most interesting are personality, memory, animal behavior, and evolution. Memory- I have been interested in this domain of psycholgy ever since I read an article about how the brain distorts memories each time they are recalled. This led to me questioning every memory I have and wondering how much my brain has changed them over the years. Having knowledge about how the brain stores memories would also hopefully give me ideas to improve my own.…

by using the shock experiment. Participants of the experiment are instructed by an authority to administer a shock to a recipient. Recipients are asked questions and with every incorrect answer, the participant administers a shock and the shock voltage increases. Though recipients feel severe pain, participants are instructed to continue with the process. This article reveals the motivators for group violence and states that the ideal environment that fosters “extreme violence by groups are…

According to Bornfreeusa.org “ More than 500 million animals are violently killed for use in fashion every year.” (Born Free USA, 2015). The use of fur in the fashion industry has been a concept for over thousands of years and the unique material has always sparked consumers interest. However, now more then ever this topic of stripping animals fur pelts for luxurious goods has been a hug controversial debate in society. The world population has a vase amount of people for the use of fur and…

Grace Bish May 20, 2015 Science Battery Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine which battery brand is the best to buy. Problem: The problem is to figure out which battery brand is the most efficient. Hypothesis: If Duracell Quantum lasts the longest then their commercials are accurate because on the package it states “No alkaline battery lasts longer”. Materials: • 2 fusion AA batteries • 2 energizer Ultimate Lithium AA • 2 Duracell quantum AA • 3 mini Maglite xenon…

Milgram's obedience experiment or the Milgram experiment is a series of famous social psychological experiments. The aim of the experiments was to highlight and measure the subjects' aptitude to obey an authority instructing the subject to perform actions that they would normally not want to perform for conscience reasons. At the end of World War II, many in the West were surprised by how seemingly healthy and socially well-behaved people could commit to murder, torture and other abuse of…

First, the Elvis board was connected to a power source and to the computer. A team member then connected the IR optosensor to the Easy Pulse circuit board. Afterwards the Easy Pulse circuit board was wired to the NI Elvis II board using jumper wires, ensuring that the VCC, A0 and GND pins connected to the +5V, AI0+, and AIGND sections respectively. The AI0 was then connected directly to the AIGND on the Elvis board. Once that was done, another team member ran the program Pulse Moniter.vi and…

associate were put through a multiple choice test that resulted in “false” electric shock for every wrong answer during each experiment. The more incorrect answers given by the learner, the higher the experimenter requested teacher to extend the voltage. Despite the deceived subjects, the learner still maintained the injured status when answering a question incorrectly. This experiment did not define the accuracy that was assumed; however, the findings were that humans and the “teachers” in the…

Most of the calcium that activates contraction comes from extracellular fluid traveling through slow calcium channels. When the cell is depolarized, it allows access to the voltage-gated calcium channel, thus calcium can pour into the cell. The crossbridge cycle is initiated by cytosolic calcium. Smooth muscle contraction begins when calcium binds to calmodulin. After binding, a transformation occurs that energizes the newly…

Distillation, described from About Education, is the process of separating liquids with 2 different boiling points. Distillating requires heating and cooling of liquid components to eventually purify the mixtures. In distillation, heat is added to vaporize the liquid with the lower boiling point and this vapor gas bubble is condensed back into its liquid form, where it is then collected in a receiving flask or a graduated cylinder. Multiple distillations and collections, depending on the types…

between poles of a large magnet creating a perpendicular magnetic field. A high frequency voltage is applied across the electrodes as a surge of charged particles is fed into the centre of the chamber accelerating the charged particles whilst attracting and repelling them. The magnetic field propels the particles spiral towards the edge of the chamber as they gain more energy from the accelerating voltage. The accelerated particles may be used to bombard suitable target materials to produce…
