In this lab experiment, I experimented with 2 different amount of borax (1g and 5g) to see if the amount of borax affects the bounce height of the ball. The ball is made up of polyvinyl acetate (school glue), borax and water. In the experiment the independent variable is borax and the dependent variable is the bounce height. I found out that borax has sort of a protective layer that creates the bounciness. Therefore, I hypothesized that the more borax that is used, it would be more bouncy, because

Fixed costs are usually taken into consideration along with variable costs, in the
METHOD In order to better comprehend the phenomena, I created a survey. A survey is a tool used to gather information about a large group of individuals. Surveys are commonly used in psychology research to collect data from participants. Surveys most typically use research tools and can be utilized to collect data or describe naturally occurring phenomena. A survey can be used to investigate the characteristics, behaviors, or opinions of a group of people. Surveys are standardized to ensure that
Effect of functional strength training on some physical and biomechanical variables for the release phase and the record level for javelin throwers Introduction The javelin is one of the competitions that require the contestant to exploit the powers of different parts of the body and to coordinate his movements according to the kinetic rules and laws related to the nature of the movement systems of the human body, and requires access to the ideal technical performance in the javelin throwing
Introduction Prior to the enforcement of Regulation Fair Disclosure (FD), many public companies are revealing important nonpublic information to the institutional investors or financial analysts, before disclose such information to the public. When this happened, those people who gain insight information can take advantage of others by buying or selling shares of the company beforehand. As a result, on October 23, 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) introduced the enforcement of Regulation
The Correlation coefficient=0.523. This correlation relies on the assumption that the variables are normally distributed, and that there is no presence of outliers. Statistics GPA final N Valid 105 105 Missing 0 0 Skewness -.053 -.334 Std. Error of Skewness .235 .235 Kurtosis -.811 -.334 Std. Error of Kurtosis .468 .468 The table shows that the in the data set, the GPA variable is a left skewed distribution of -.053 and a left kurtosis of -.811. The final variable indicates that the
amount of skewness. People argue that this uneven distribution contributes in keeping society functioning because people are unaware of this disproportional spread since there are not any grave conflicts that would cause them to need to become aware. The article, Wealth Inequality in America: It’s Worse Than You Think by Chris Mathews, instead states that the top two percent of the wealthiest people in America contain over half of the total overall
statistics is either central tendency or measured variability. Central tendency is the calculated mean, median, and mode to a data set. The measured variability can be the calculated standard deviation, a minimum and maximum of variables, kurtosis,and skewness. The relationship of variables is counted and measured as pair variables in the following test: contingency table, cross-tabulation, scatter plots, conditional distributions, quantitative dependence, and histograms. On the other hand, inferential
The definition of skewness in statistics form is a measure of the asymmetry of the probability distribution of a real-valued random variable about its mean, and the value can be either positive or negative. When the data is skewed to the right it means that the mean is greater
Introduction Self-image is both a conscious and unconscious way of viewing oneself. How one views his or herself is built through interaction with others. Society has given us roles and certain expectations on how we should look. Goffman (1963) states that the bias and discrimination against overweight and obese individuals is widespread. This bias ranges from individuals in the work place to intimate relationships. Implicit bias is defined as our attitudes or stereotypes that shape our understanding
Abstract While most traditional science deals with supposedly predictable phenomena like gravity, electricity, or chemical reactions, Chaos Theory deals with nonlinear things that are effectively impossible to predict or control, like turbulence, weather, the stock market, our brain states, and so on. It focuses on non-randomness, nonlinearity and chaotic characteristics. In recent times such nonlinear dynamics and chaotic dynamics have augmented in the field of financial analysis. This paper studies
1. Introduction Mefenamic Acid (MA) a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug is used extensively for clinical applications [1]. This particular drug provides relief from pain caused by muscle pain, dental pain, pre-menstrual syndrome, headaches and postoperative surgeries. It is mainly a derivative of fenamic acid where there is coplanarity between the carboxylic group and the nitrogen atom of the aromatic ring [2]. This type of coplanarity is generally found in most of the fenamates which is responsible

Section 1: Scope and Descriptive Statistics The objective of this report is to analyze the performance data of Pastas R Us, Inc., focusing on key metrics such as sales per square foot, demographic factors, and the effectiveness of the loyalty card program. The dataset encompasses 74 restaurant locations, each evaluated
Selective Attention: The Debate between Early and Late Selection Selective attention is needed because we are not always aware of our surroundings, unless we pay attention. Our behaviour can suffer when there are too many information outputs, therefore, selection must take place in order to control what information we take in, much like a bottleneck. We are testing spatial attention, and how well people can ignore distractor letters (either congruent, neutral, or incongruent). In this study, participants
Article Reviews over Play Therapy Baggerly, J. (2018). Religious faith in play therapy: Survey findings. International Journal of Play Therapy, 27(2), 114-123. doi:10.1037/pla0000070 This first article talked about how it studied religious faith in play therapy. This article stated that, “The study was done to bring awareness of individual religious views, awareness of children’s spirituality, information of numerous religious faiths, knowledge of a child’s religious faith, and knowledge of children’s
Why we use Probability Distribution: Some uses of probability distribution are as follows: Scenario Analysis Probability distributions can be used to create scenario analyses. A scenario analysis uses probability distributions to create several, theoretically distinct possibilities for the outcome of a particular course of action or future event. For example, a business might create three scenarios: worst-case, likely and best-case. The worst-case scenario would contain some value from the lower
This paper attempts to examine the economic determinants of life expectancy and explain the economic basis for the disparity of life expectancy between the regions of the world. This was done by using a series of models that accounted for some basic economic and socio-economic factors unique to each country while accounting for pooled interaction and country classification. Most variables turned out to be significant where income, income inequality, urbanization and public health care expenditure
Early adulthood is a time when young adults struggle with accepting or rejecting their ancestral roots as they attempt to develop a positive sense of self. Nigerian-American adults, in particular, struggle with the integration of immensely different elements of Eastern and Western cultures while living in the United States. Despite the difficulties in cultural integration among Nigerian-American adults, few studies have been conducted about their bicultural ethnic identity development. Grounded in
TOPIC: VARIATION OF COLORS & ITS DIFFERENTIAL EFFECT ON HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY, AN ANALYSIS OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY: Colors may simply appear to be basic and irrelevant yet they influence our everyday lives more than we may know. Colors do change individual's state of mind and there are a few hypotheses that how single color change one's entire disposition. Hence, I need to know why individuals are so cognizant about wearing colors on various events. Like why young ladies limit themselves
