Often two types of investigations have been differentiated. The ‘reactive approach’ to investigation occurs when a police responds to a crime that has already taken place such as murder‚ or theft. On the other hand‚ the ‘proactive approach’ to investigation occurs in response to an ongoing criminal activity or even before the crime has been committed. For e.g. the police may get information that a gang is going to commit a crime in a particular area. In other cases‚ the police may patrol an area

PENDULUM INVESTIGATION Aim of the investigation The aim of the pendulum investigation is to see what will happen if I change a variable whilst I swing a pendulum and see the effect which it has on the pendulums time to complete one whole swing (from where it starts‚ to the opposite end‚ and back again). This will give me an insight into what will effect the time of the swinging of the pendulum‚ be it weight‚ string length‚ the angle‚ or the swinging point. Planning my investigation I will

Aim. The aim of this investigation is to find out how Slaters react to an increase or decrease of the temperature in its surroundings. Hypothesis The speed of the Slaters will increase when the temperature of its environment is increased or decreased from its preferred range‚ so it ensures that they spend less time in unfavorable conditions to avoid desiccation. Method 1. This experiment is done using a water bath to change and control the temperature being trialed. The water bath will have

MATH INVESTIGATION 4.2 FACTORIZATIONS on the Math Investigator determines if a number is prime or composite. If a number is composite‚ it prints all its factors‚ the number of factors‚ and its prime factorization. The numbers 1‚ 2‚ 4‚ and 6 have 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4 factors‚ respectively: 1 has only 1 as a factor; 2 has 1 and 2 as factors; 4 has 1‚ 2‚ and 4 as factors; and 6 has 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 6 as factors. These factors are illustrated by the rectangles shown here. Starting Points for Investigations

Typically‚ the person that prepares the presentence investigation report (PSIR) has a heavy responsibility in report writing. In our criminal justice classes‚ we have identified this person as the probation officer of the defendant. The purpose of writing the PSIR is to inform the judge about the conditions of the defendant and recommend treatment or sentencing options. This is a very difficult decision to make because the options are endless. Sometimes‚ the recommendations are rarely followed.

A phase transfer catalyst or PTC in chemistry is a catalyst which facilitates the migration of a reactant in a heterogeneous system from one phase into another phase where reaction can take place. Ionic reactants are often soluble in an aqueous phase but insoluble in an organic phase unless the phase transfer catalyst is present. Phase transfer catalysis (also PTC) refers to the acceleration of the reaction by the phase transfer catalyst. Phase transfer catalysts for anion reactants are often
