Shaker Heights

This is a very creative game, using salt and pepper shakers in a way similar to the game pieces in the board game Sorry. Using the salt and pepper shakers was a novel solution to dealing with the boredom that comes with waiting for dessert, however, my sisters had to use convergent thinking in order to figure out the most effective way to use these shakers in order to maximize the amount of fun they could get from those salt and pepper shakers. This is when their hypothetico-deductive reasoning came

The Change in Resistance of a Carbon Paper Introduction The aim of this experiment is to see how the resistance of a carbon-coated piece of paper changes when the different variables change. Variables A variable is a change in an experiment that could alter the outcome/results of that experiment, and for this experiment the main variables are type of paper, width of paper, length of paper, and temperature. We are going to be studying how changing

Being a trucker means spending days, weeks, and even months away from your friends and family. You are often deployed on cross-country drives with only a few hours’ notice - sometimes even less - and you spend a portion of every assignment driving on some long stretch of road in the middle of nowhere with nobody around for miles. When you’re in a situation like that, the last thing you want is to breakdown with no means of restarting your truck. Having a decent set of tools stashed in your truck

Lin-Manuel Miranda is an actor, composer, lyricist, librettist, and rapper, best known for his works In The Heights and Hamilton: An American Musical, both popular on broadway. Lin was born on January 16th, 1980 in Manhattan, New York City. He grew up in Inwood, a neighborhood in upper Manhattan, but spent a month every summer with his grandparents at their home in Vega Alta, Puerto Rico. He attended Hunter College High School and went on to Wesleyan University, where he graduated in 2002. Growing

The purpose of this experiment is to determine whether or not the material that a flood is going through effects the rate and the size of the damage left behind. The independent variable in this experiment is the material that the water is going through, where as the dependent variable is the rate it takes for the water to flood through. Some controlled variables in the experiment are the amount of water used to simulate the flooding, the amount of material the water is going through, and the temperature

Acrophobia is an irrational fear of heights or high places. Many people dislike heights, but someone with a clinical case of acrophobia can have intense emotional and physical responses at just the thought of being in a high place. Acrophobia is simply a severe fear of heights. Now being afraid of heights is a common and sometimes appropriate feeling. But the phobia part kicks in when you feel afraid in a safe environment such as inside a skyscraper. Acrophobia is treated with graded exposure therapy

determine whether or not specific human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth by comparing the ratios of height to two specific body parts, in the students’ case the right hand length and head circumference, in students and newborns. The students formulated the tentative answer that if a team of four compared their height to right hand length ratio, as well as, their height to head circumference ratio, to those of a newborn’s, then the students will discover that the right hand and head

1. Objective: The objective of this experiment is to demonstrate the bending of a bean when loaded at the center of its length and examine its deflection when positioned in two different ways, when the flat side of the beam is support and when the thin side is supported. In addition, try to find linear relationship between the load applied and the deflection of the beam and comparing the experimental deflection with the theoretical deflection. If the load is applied at the mid- length a=b=L/2

Short Answer 1. Explain what is meant by the term “conditionally executed”.       Conditionally executed is called a single alternative decision structure because it provides only one alternative path of execution. The action is conditionally executed because it is performed only when a certain condition is true. 2. You need to test a condition and then execute one set of statements if the condition is true. If the condition is false, you need to execute a different set of statements. What structure

of gymnastics springboard will give the highest elevation. There are two types of springboards used in vaulting the traditional springboard and the air board. Based on research the hypothesis states that if a gymnast jumps on an air board then the height off the board will be higher than if jumping on a traditional springboard. To begin with, the vault has been in the Olympics for men since 1896 and for women since 1952. The vault requires a gymnast to run down a runway, jump on a springboard
