Geometrical Optics: Snell’s Law PHY101 Lab 12 Date: July 23rd‚ 2012 Objective: The purpose of this laboratory activity is to develop a set of experimental procedures that answer questions regarding Snell’s Law and the index of refraction. Ultimately‚ the experimental procedures you develop will allow the index of refraction to be found for water and cooking oil. 1. Explain how to experimentally determine the index of refraction of two substances. 2. Develop a set of experimental

Kyara Santos Lab Questions: 1.Describe some of the influence of Latin music in the US in the early part of the twentieth century.Latin music started a new type of music‚ Jazz and Afro-Cuban Jazz. 2.What was the significance of "Machito and His Afro-Cubans"? “Machito and His Afro-Cubans” created Afro-Cuban Jazz. 3.How did Dizzy Gillespie incorporate Latin music into his music? Gillespie invited a player named Chano‚ who was from Cuba‚ and they worked together. 4.What was

Biology 103 Lab Spring 2013 Does a larger head mean higher intelligence? Introduction: Some say a larger head gives room for a bigger‚ more intelligent brain. Men‚ thought to have larger heads simply because they’re… well men. In which case‚ men have a larger head size than women‚ therefore making men smarter than women. Methods: My partner and I went ahead and measured the heads of 15 people in our class‚ 5 of them male and 10 of them female. We used a measuring band to measure‚ to

Materials: To complete all steps and smoothly complete the lab we first needed an almond‚ which what will be burned to find the energy and calories. Next we needed a paper clip to straighten out and put the almond on as a safe and efficient way to burn the almond. A scale and small aluminum-weighing dish were needed as well to weigh out the almond and paperclip. The lab also required a graduated cylinder‚ test tube‚ distilled water‚ thermometer‚ a Bunsen burner‚ a sparker‚ a calorimeter and safety

in the 20% solution. 7. Average the molar masses you calculated in questions 3 and 6. 8. The formula for antifreeze is C2H6O2. Calculate its molarmass using the periodic table. 9. Calculate your percent error. Conclusion: This lab was a phenomenal success! The purpose of determining the freezing points of water‚ 10% antifreeze‚ and 20% antifreeze was not only accomplished‚ but also done so in a splendid manner. The net figures of our experiment were less than 5°C off from the

Effects of Crossing Over in Sordaria fimicola Abstract Sexual reproduction in organisms is a cause for genetic variation. This can be seen through the process of meiosis in Sordaria fimicola because of the effects of crossing over and independent assortment that occur in meiosis I. Before performing this experiment we hypothesized that we would be able to see that crossing over did indeed occur in the S. fimicola. We tested our hypothesis by growing our own culture and observing it under a

The Effect of Osmosis on a Potato Cell October 12th 2012 Osmosis Lab Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to investigate the effects of osmosis on a potato cell as it is immersed for a period of time in solutions of different water concentrations. Hypothesis: If the potato is immersed into the distilled water‚ then it will be the heaviest out of the three. This is because water is at the lower is moving toward the area of higher concentration‚ which in this case is the potato. This

Coulomb’s Law Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate that the force between two stationary charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely to the square of the distance between them. Coulomb’s law tells us that the force between two charges depends (1) linearly on the strength of each charge‚ and (2) inversely on the square of the distance between them. Mathematically we would write this as . Procedures Part1 Begin by removing the right side

Lab Report Background Information: Magnesium is an alkaline earth metal that has the symbol Mg. Magnesium is a fairly strong‚ silvery-white‚ light-weight metal (one third lighter than aluminum). In a powder‚ it heats and ignites when exposed to moisture and burns with a white flame that is harmful to the eyes. It is difficult to ignite in bulk‚ but once ignited‚ it is difficult to extinguish. Magnesium Ribbon is a long strip of magnesium metal about 3 millimeters wide and 10 meters long with
