Essays on Experiment

Currently, the American Psychology Association (APA) have become more strict with ethical rules and regulations unlike in the past where psychologist like Stanley Milligram from Yale University had an opportunity to conduct experiments which would be today considered unethical. The Milligram experiment was one held to test obedience to authority...

This paper is based on an experiment of establishing the consistency, density, and compressive strength of concrete. The experiment involves casting of 12 sets of concrete cubes to with three different water to cement ratios. Therefore, four sets of cubes are prepared using one W/C ratio. The essence of making...

The smooth flow in pipes can be divided into laminar and turbulent flow using the critical velocity. The flow pattern is determined by the diameter of the pipe, flow rate, density and viscosity (Assefa and Kaushal). Thus a set of dimensionless groups can be determined using the following variables Where  is the...

Ø To investigate the spring constants of springs in series and parallel arrangements. Ø To investigate the Spring Constant of two different springs. INTRODUCTION In this laboratory exercise we were conduct an experiment to determine the spring constant of a spring and then investigate the effect of putting the spring in...

Hooke’s Law explains the behaviour of the spring and other linearly elastic objects. According to the Hooke’s Law, the stress is always directly proportional to the strain. The aim of the Hooke’s Law experiment was to investigate and verify Hooke’s Law and the acceleration due to gravity with a linearly...

This paper is a lab report on the determination of the absorptivity value of food dye. It starts off with listing the objectives for the experiment and then it goes on to describe some bit of theory on the experiment itself. Beer’s law which states that Absorbance of light of...

The Real Lesson of the Stanford Prison Experiment The author of the article “The Real Lesson of the Stanford Prison Experiment” describes a study that was conducted in 1971 by Philip Zimbardo and his colleagues to examine the impact of perceived power (Konnikova, 2015). Background of the Experiment The background of the experiment...

According to Houston 2013 (p. 106) in any chemical reaction, it is vital to note the extent to which the reaction takes place as well as its feasibility. Houston further states that whereas the feasibility of a reaction can be predicted using thermodynamics, the extent of a chemical reaction is...

The concept of spectroscopy has been applied in various fields especially after the advancement in science and technology. Apparently, the unique absorption wavelength of compounds or metals is fundamental in this experiment. Therefore, scientists can indemnify metals using absorbance of light intensity property. On the other hand, the flame test...

Zimbardo experiments also commonly known as Stanford prison experiment because it was conducted at Stanford University in 1971. The research was an attempt to investigate the effects of psychology on perceived power, concentrating on the struggle between prison officers and prisoners. Philip Zimbardo, a psychology professor, was determined in discovering...

The Minneapolis Domestic Violence Experiment (MDVE) The Minneapolis Domestic Violence Experiment (MDVE) looked at the potential protective impact of police involvement on domestic violence. The experiment was primarily a field test where police responses to real offenders, such as adult cohabitation or spouse assault in a misdemeanor state, were controlled by...

To begin, we apply the product rule to (125a8) 1/3\s(125a8) 1/3 = 1251/3 (a8) (a8) 1/3 The number 125 is then written as a prime to a power (factor 5 out of 125) 1251/3 (a8) (a8) 1/3 = (53) (53) 1/3 (a8) (a8) 1/3 The exponents are then multiplied using the power rule. The power rule states...
