samples. Firstly the rock size and mass was measured to determine the density and bulk volume using an electronic ruler and mass balance. Then using the helium porosimeter the grain volume of each core plug sample was measured. Each of these measurements were repeated three times and then averaged for precision sake. The porosity was then calculated by subtracting the grain volume from the bulk volume, to determine the pore volume, and then dividing by the bulk volume. The porosity results for

Linking the balanced scorecard to strategy 1. Managers need to operate multiple measurements of business-unit performance 2. BSC * Most of non-financial measures have limitations (e.g. customer satisfaction, employee attitude) a. Only report how worked in the past, but no guidance on how to operate in the future. b.

black powder. Data Analysis: When calculating the actual yield of copper oxide from the data recorded we found that the most accurate results would be .72 grams, different measurements from what we were able to attain, which was .81 grams. This could perhaps have occurred because of miscalculation and inaccuracy in measurement. For example, a small amount of powder may have been displaced while stirring the powder when it was placed above the bunsen burner. Some of the powder may have also remained

the free falling measurements were not so great, but closer to the earth’s acceleration. For example, my last measurement of the free falling activity was approximately 985.11 cm/s^2, which was very close to the earth’s acceleration. On the other hand my last measurement on the pendulum swing activity my last measurement was 2196.14 cm/s^2, which was very off from the earth’s acceleration. It is possible to assume errors in my calculations may had alter any of my measurements. Also possible errors

Sense of Control under Uncertainty Depends on People’s Childhood Environment INTRODUCTION According to new research, there are reports that growing up poor can “influence people’s sense of control and in turn may lead them to more impulsive decision-making and quickly giving up on challenging tasks in uncertain situations” (p.6). It is stated that two people with very different backgrounds tend to respond differently
