Understanding Questions Directions: Answer the following questions in complete sentences. One to two sentences will not suffice. 1. Write down what your observations as you look at the ball at different positions in its orbit around your head. The ball goes thru the same phases that the moon would go through.

While reviewing the Stanford Prison Experiment (Zimbardo‚ 2012)‚ I had to stop reading to wipe my eyes dry. As a human being with compassion or other people‚ I cannot fathom how something like this was even allowed to go on for 6 days. The torture that these students were allowed to endure was atrocious. I see nothing ethical about conducting a study like this due to the fact that there are real prisons with real prisoners that could have been interviewed and studied rather than traumatizing people

Phase Change Lab Report by Dylan Norford Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to study the energy changes associated with the phase changes of water. In this experiment we know the water is gaining energy so we know the heat is going to be positive and we can use the equation MCΔT to find the energy change. The specific heat will be 1 and we just have to measure the water to find the mass and take the temperature before and after we start to find the energy change. Background: The science
