...Does Soap Affect the Surface Tension of Water? Background: Surface tension refers to water's ability to "stick to itself". Surface tensioncan be measured and observed by dropping water (drop by drop) onto a penny. Thenumber of water drops that can fit on a penny will surprise you. Question: How does soap affect the water’s surface tension? Hypothesis: I think that the surface tension of soapy water will be less than that of freshwater because H 2 0 has strong polar bonds, and when water is mixed with soap the polar bonds which help to bind the water together are weakened, thus lessening the surfacetension. Materials: pipette, liquid soap, water, beakers, penny, graduated cylinder, paper towels. Procedure: 1. I received a beaker filled with tap water. 2. I took a pipette and filled it upwith water from the beaker. 3. I began to add drops of water to a penny, which was headsup, every one second from a height of ½ centimeter and counting how many drops I had put on it. 4. After I added the drop that caused the water to flow over, I recorded howmany drops stayed on the penny, and I then dried the penny with a paper towel. 5. Irepeated steps two through four, four times. 6. I took 100 ml of water and poured it into a beaker. 7. I got 3 ml of soap. 8. I added the 3 ml of soap to the beaker and stirred thesolution 40-50 times with a fresh pipette. 9. I filled the pipette with the soapy water solution and began to start adding drops of the solution to the same penny, from...

...In the short story “The Crown” written by Ben Loory, a man with an unknown name is currently employed as a dishwasher. One day while he is performing his work duties, he finds an object in his sink that has no color at all. He is astounded by his findings that he talks to a bus boy for his opinion on what the object could be. The bus boy then hypothesizes that the object could be crown. Even though the story does not reveal the type of the object, the story teaches numerous life lessons such as the effects of greed of attention and the false identity of living in a materialistic world. The effect of greed for attention is an important theme revealed from this story. In the case of the crown, the trouble began when the dishwasher started wearing the unknown object to make the crown visible. Due to the fact that the dishwasher wanted everyone to know that he had a crown, he painted it gold, a color that signifies good health and wealth. His greed of attention finally paid off. Everyone started talking to him. They would request money, food and even housing. In the eyes of the people, they saw him as a king, the top notch person in their society. At that time, the dishwasher felt like he was on the top of the world. This was his chance to have all the attention he could have ever wanted. However one day the dishwasher decided that the life he was living in, portraying as a king was not suitable for him, so he decided to take of the crown and wash it out. His actions portray that...

...I worked at Panera for a little over a year, as a waiter (what they called a food runner/dining room server), cashier, line worker (I made sandwiches), and dishwasher. For some odd reason though, I found dishwashing therapeutic in an odd sort of way. There is a certain rhythm that I followed whenever I worked as a dishwasher. It was the same rhythm, no matter how tired, or bored I was. This helped to make the shifts go by faster, and gave me more time to think about my life. I would listen to my classical music in the back of the house and just think. The dishwasher, with its rhythmic cycles, swirling water and dish detergent around the dishes, cleansing them of grime, just as it did my thoughts. I, unfortunately, have clinical depression and anxiety. I may not seem like it on the outside, but I have a lot going on in this big head of mine. Self-demoting thoughts like, “you’re not good enough”, “you will never make it”, and “why do you even try? Just stay as a dishwasher” would swallow my mind in a wave of dark feelings during the day. Walking through the day, let alone the week, was rough. I would arrive at work feeling as if I wouldn’t even make it through my shift. I would walk to the back drudgingly, wanting to just fall on my face. Alas, I would put on my apron, and walk to my dishwasher. Radio, fork antenna and all, set to 101.1 WRR, I would get to work. Around the time I was working at Panera, my home life was very unsteady. A lot of the time, I would look forward...

...One example of a happy accident occurred after putting regular hand washing detergent into the dishwasher when I was a teenager. My family had a big mess to clean up after it started overflowing with bubbles and water. It was funny because my parents should have known not to allow it to happen. I believe they thought it would work and not create such a mess. My whole family learned to only use dishwasher detergent in the dishwasher. Another example of a happy accident that happened in my life was when I accidently put salt in my tea. It was gross and not drinkable. I wasted my tea and made sure to pay closer attention to which jar was sugar and salt. As Pasteur describes the prepared mind it allows chance to happen with more scientific explanation. Here the scientist can observe after the event occurred and develop reasons to why it worked. Preparation allows the scientist to think more about other solutions to problems. A person can allow the imagination to keep generating ideas. Imagination is often the beginning to new discoveries. Another way for a person to keep his mind open to chance would be to think positively; he or she should never allow negativity to get in the way. Never think that it will not work until it has been proven by testing.. Mistakes in science can be good because the results can be analyzed and studied for new ways to help science. A mistake is not viewed as wasted time or effort. It can be recorded as history and already proven or disproved...

...RESTORING PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND CITY DEMOCRACY Institution Affiliation Course Date The active participation of the community is the most important part of conserving, reestablishing and constructing both the physical infrastructure and the democracy of cities. From my point of view, Will Rogers principles about physically fit cities and on how we should shape our cities, the vision of growing a city honors equality and diversity. Recycling brownfields abandoned and underutilized property to create parks for the communities is one principle of community-based land conservation. Furthermore, great cities have great parks. These parks are the gathering places for cultural events, farmers’ markets, recreation and also brings communities together. Providing wonderful park system is just as much an ethical issue as providing quality education and mobility for all citizens. I came to agreement on this issue of recycling land to get a fairer balance. In principle two, individual health is directly tied to how we shape our cities and communities. I can as a result of this say, to avoid ‘chronic diseases’ we should construct better patterns for our new developments in the urban, which will create sidewalks and bike paths. It is true to say that our growth patterns are affecting the water quality, the water that we consume to our bodies, becoming a major threat to our health. The squeezed patterns lead to traffics which of course, pollutes our air from the car emissions. It is the...

...Diagnostic Algebra Assessment Definitions Categories Equality Symbol Misconception Graphing Misconception Definition Concept of a Variable Misconception Equality Symbol Misconception As algebra teachers, we all know how frustrating it can be to teach a particular concept and to have a percentage of our students not get it. We try different approaches and activities but to no avail. These students just do not seem to grasp the concept. Often, we blame the students for not trying hard enough. Worse yet, others blame us for not teaching students well enough. Students often learn the equality symbol misconception when they begin learning mathematics. Rather than understanding that the equal sign indicates equivalence between the expressions on the left side and the right side of an equation, students interpret the equal sign as meaning “do something” or the sign before the answer. This problem is exacerbated by many adults solving problems in the following way: 5 × 4 + 3 = ? 5 × 4 = 20 + 3 = 23 Students may also have difficulty understanding statements like 7 = 3 + 4 or 5 = 5, since these do not involve a problem on the left and an answer on the right. Falkner presented the following problem to 6th grade classes: 8 + 4 = [] + 5 All 145 students gave the answer of 12 or 17. It can be assumed that students got 12 since 8 + 4 = 12. The 17 may be from those who continued the problem: 12 + 5 = 17. Students with this misconception may also have difficulty with the idea that adding...

...Team B Calorie Count Tool PRG/211 May 5, 2014 Team B Calorie Count Tool PROBLEM STATEMENT Team B was asked to develop a program which would calculate the user’s daily intake of calories and measure those calories against the overall calories expended. The core purpose of this program will do two primary functions. First, it will record the user intake of calories as acquired through meals throughout the day. Second, the user will record caloric output associated with physical activity. This information will be calculated together to determine the caloric surplus or deficit for the user. In order for the program to execute accurately, and provide customized results, the user will be required to input personal data to include gender, age, weight, and height. This additional information is essential to determine the user’s default caloric burn rate, otherwise known as the basal metabolic rate (BMR). The BMR and the calories burned as a result of physical activity will be calculated against the intake of calories to determine the overall success for the user. As the program is executed it must: * Record user name, age, height, weight to enable more accurate calculations * Record the users specific caloric values entered for each meal * Record the user activity and caloric burn values for that activity * Calculate the basal metabolic rate (BMR) for the individual * Subtotal the total caloric values for the day * Combine the physical activity and...
